Quick bug fix / gameplay update


Accidentally kept the spawns too high last update from debugging, should be better now. Game pacing is much slower now, and scores will be lower as well. I plan on not having any more balance changes after this so let me know how it is :)

Added:

  • Peaceful mode: play without sharks but score isn't recorded

Fixed:

  • all spawns were too frequent
  • cooked fish no longer float in air
  • Eel ability belly glitch fixed
  • Keyboard Eel ability enabled

Changed:

  • Decreased points awarded from ability fish due to their increased spawn
  • slowed pacing for all spawns
  • reduced grow speed
  • Sharks cannot appear while an egg exists


Next up I will add a new ability, Thanks for playing!!

Bugs to fix for next update:

  • high score still recorded in peaceful sometimes
  • Swallowing shark not prioritized
  • Belly is maxed right before stage 3
  • Peaceful Mode: can't increase size past starting cap because there are no sharks/eggs


Reply here if you run into any :)

mermaid belly gets jumpy and glitchy when gulping a lot of fish.

I noticed, I kinda like it but I'll consider removing it 😅
