I enjoyed playing your game on my stream! I was a bit confused at the very beginning, but once I got the hang of it, it was a lot of fun! Satisfying art, music, and sfx. I liked the evolution mechanics although I wish I could have a way to see what evolutions I had so far on each species; I kept losing track. Also, great job with the tutorial, you explained things really well. Overall, the game felt very smooth and I loved it.

Thanks for your nice comment. I enjoyed watching you play it in your stream. 

The team agreed that we will do a final update after the jam is over. It is nice to get specific feedback, because after the nine days we have stared at the game too long to see what else we could improve. I think we could do an evolution panel that only appears when you hover over it, similar to the fish bowls. Otherwise the screen gets really crowded.

Thanks again for your input! I’m really happy you liked it.

How far have you come and what builds have you used to get there? We'd love to know. 

Well, I just hit level 100 and I could go on forever(I think).

The build evolve over time but my specie got 3 role. I will only put the man attribute.

Specie 1 : hunt enemy, give xp to other on death(this is realy important), I keep spamming this species and I keep it cheap. Slowly make it into a strong tank. At stage 100, it had 40 hp, 8 str, 4 spd

Specie 2 : Stay in the center, make other specie each 30 sec, spawn at each wave. At stage 100, 3 would spawn each wave with 3 baby. They cost 21 but I never have to make them. They would make so many of the other fish that I rarely had to make any.

Specie 3 : Get fishy, make and shot bubble, give xp to other on death at later stage.

Hey, really nice achievement! Hope you had fun and it didn't start lagging too much once you got  this far.

Since this is a jam game (made in 9 days in a work week) there's definitely some balancing left to do and we will probably do one final update after the voting period of the jam is over. Ideally, we would want the difficulty to continue scaling such that it isn't possible to go on forever.

It's definitely not easy to get this far, most people struggle to get past wave 30ish,  so again, nice achievement, well done!

I had a lot of fun. It's pretty decent for a jam game. I had a hard time passing the level 16, but once I got lucky with good early upgrade pick, it was ok. The key is to have a ways to farm xp so upgrade keep comming. Then I specialise
