Spell the names of fish while casting your rod to make impressive catches, and learn entirely accurate statistics and fun facts about a funny number of your favourite swimmers. Now that's magical.
Game created in the 48 hour period; all the art was generated using OpenAI DALL-E. That's why it looks so doofy. Also ate away like 40 of my credits. I was saving those for making funnies. Grr.

Fun and simple, very effective! I got 314k on my first try and never managed to beat it :(
Honestly the only thing I wish was there is a way to sort entries to show only the new fishes. I would probably have played even more if there was a way to avoid going through the 60 pages 😅

Once again you make something completely unique and unexpected out of the chosen theme wow It's a pretty simple game, but it gets the job done pretty well. You can very much spend a lot of time trying to beat your highest score here. Good game overall. also how tf do you even manage to come up not only with a song, but a song with lyrics and how do you do that twice

That's a really funny spin on the theme (also I might just be tired, but it took me waaaay too long to figure the pun out). I kinda zoned out and spent a good chunk of time typing in fish names. Nice job :D

Very unique and engaging, keeping up a good chain is satisfying and there's a nice variety of unique fish in the game. The star of the show is the presentation, I love all of these seemingly stock assets coming together, reminds me of weird old 00s games and software, an aesthetic I adore.
Typing Your Bass has a very different and amusing take on the theme, it's quick to pick up and play and a pretty chill time with a great aesthetic.

Good minigame, nice interpretation of spellcasting theme.
Too bad that most of the assets (sprites, music, ...) are not yours so you will be disqualified. [EDIT: if it is legit then ok :) ]
Anyway, thanks for submission.

Thanks for the feedback! All of the assets are mine - I created the music with Magix Music Maker and generated the art during the 48 hours. SFX and all programming were also done during the time period.

Is there anything more 'Allison James' than this? 😂 silly, unique, great music and I wouldn't expect anything less. No complaints from me! 😀

Hilarious and theme fitting, out-of-box-thinking, game concept! I love it! As someone new to GameMaker, I appreciate playing a submission that isn't a shooter/rpg/platformer - as those are the most accessible tutorials I've found online. This journey into game dev is so exciting, bringing our imaginations to life!

This is a really funny take on spellcasting. I really like that there's some difficulty that scales with skill as the timer decreases. Having fun facts for 69 total fish is also pretty awesome. The only critique I could make is perhaps not having more original artwork.

Thank you for the feedback!
I like to try something new at least once per jam; in this case, it was generating the art during the 48 hours with AI (OpenAI/DALL-E). It is original art, it's just very stock by the nature of AI 😅

Spent way too much time typing away trying to get more swimmy boys in my journal. The humor and charm you put in your jam games always makes them super fun, thumbs up from me!
