How does the game fit the theme?
I interpreted "places" to be the species of fish (plaice), and as for the strange part, I'm sure there's no doubt...

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The music and sounds are from envato elements. Everything else is made during the jam.

Interesting take on incremental games. I have never seen one where you lose all progress if you have a bad round. I didn’t get too far as clicking a lot is strenuous for me.

Sound and artwork was well done!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks! Yes I suppose it's true that you could lose all your progress if you didn't click at all, but if you do click, it should be quite hard to lose progress!

In future I will look into autoclickers for those that don't want to click a lot 

Submitted

So hilarious! Never thought you could design incremental game this way.

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks! What do you mean?

Submitted

The clicker game, it's the first time I see clicker game in this way!

DeveloperSubmitted

Oh ok, you mean the shop purchase loop of a single item, rather than accumulating assets?

Submitted(+1)

yep

Submitted

It is a pretty addicting idea and I love the goofy fish art and SFX. I just feel It would be pretty cool to add some upgrades to give the game a bit more variety.

DeveloperSubmitted

Ok fair enough!

Submitted

Between the art, the sfx, and the calming music, this game is just hilarious. I wish fish clicker was my real job

DeveloperSubmitted

I wish it was my job too, especially earning at that rate :)

Thanks for playing

Submitted

Why is this so fun. This shouldn't be this fun. But it is! HOW!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks! Yes I agree it's more fun than you'd think for such a basic concept :)

Submitted (1 edit)

While clicking on the plaices was satisfying, I could not understand the point of progressing to the next levels as the shapes/size of the plaices and the gameplay will remain exactly the same. I wish there was more variety in the fish..I mean, the gameplay, because right now it's just a simple clicker game but without any upgrades or additional cool stuff. Other than that, you can't deny, it is satisfying to click on the fish, it's polished enough to get some dopamine out of you. Good job!

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks for playing! Yes there really isn't much point to this game, other than 'number go up'. What would you suggest to be added to give it more variety?

Submitted

that's such a simple idea, but unexpectedly so much fun and quite addictive:) great job:)

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Thank you :)

Submitted

Enjoyment 6/5, got me addicted.

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you :)

Submitted

I Love creative use of the themes in jams!
(And clicker games are oddly addictive...) 

It was wonderful, great job! ^^

DeveloperSubmitted

Thank you, I'm glad I addicted you :) 

Submitted

Using damn plaice fish is really creative :>

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

haha I’m glad you enjoyed :)

Submitted

I walked out of this game feeling like a million bucks haha this was strangely addicting. I really enjoyed the art and the satisfaction of clicking to make more money. Would have been nice if you had a different variety of sounds but the squeak was fun too lol. 

DeveloperSubmitted

Well you probably had substantially more than a million in your account when you stopped playing!


What sort of sounds would you have added?

Submitted(+1)

LOL I did actually, but definitely didn't make it to page 13. I would say I'm middle class in the fish selling business. 
I think more bloop sounds lol

DeveloperSubmitted

I mean by page 13 I'm basically just making up acronyms for what even corresponds to what numbers, so... 

And ok fair enough!

*sqeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak* *squeak*

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

That’s the sound of improving the circulation of many plaices 

Submitted(+1)

It's pretty simple, but it really draws you in

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

It's simple, but I like it, and I can't stop looking at it. :) It's easy to adapt to a phone.

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks! Yes people have been playing it on mobile in their web browser :)

Submitted(+1)

A simple clicker with fun visuals and appropraitely weird sounds.

The gameplay is as simple as it comes, you don't even need to click on the plaice for it to register! I got the idea after the first page of fish, I didn't need to go through all 13.

Good polish and well made for the simple concept.

DeveloperSubmitted

Haha yeah, it's much of the same thing all the way through - thanks for playing :)

And yes, don't tell anyone you don't even need to click the fish! It's a secret 

Submitted(+1)

A fun interpretation of the theme, and the art is lovely :)

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks :)

Submitted (1 edit) (+1)

Very funny interpretation of theme, and it's especially with the funny squeeky sounds, but the progression needs to be more interesting. The fish look awesome though.

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks :) I'm glad you liked the fish

Submitted(+1)

It's a fun clicker game! I decide to play it on my phone on browser and it's much nicer haha. I think the progression could be designed better, because now it's quite monotone, and the only difference from the more expensive fish to the earlier ones is the color and that you get more money. If it has some mechanics for example to let you spend the money to automate the play similar to cookie clicker, it would feel much more rewarding and more addtive I think.

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Thanks for playing, yes indeed there really is nothing more to it other than different colour fish! I agree it could use some variety. 

Others have mentioned it played nicer on mobile too, interesting

Submitted(+1)

Why do I keep purchasing fishes ?!!

DeveloperSubmitted

They need to be clicked, it's of extreme importance

Submitted(+1)

Really nice clicker, loved it !

DeveloperSubmitted

Thanks :)
