Shark Hunt & More


Huge update, been wanting to finish this for a while. I haven't tested the difficulty as much as I want but I'll save that for my final update.


Added:

  • Shark Hunt: A mode where a shark relentlessly chases you. Get it before it gets you.
  • Pufferfish: Eat this fish while it isn't puffed to activate a constant mouth vacuum, pulling in prey and moving you a bit faster. Also slightly increases swallow size temporarily
  • Squids: They can create decoys, eating the real squid gives you the ability to create decoys too by double clicking/tapping. Sharks will target your decoys sometimes, causing them to shrink if they run into the ink that the decoys make on contact.
  • Minefields: Touching a mine causes it to explode! If you are in the explosion you shrink slightly and get pushed away. Sharks can't activate the explosions but they are effected by them.
  • Toxic Waste: Entering this makes you swim slower and shrink. Does not effect sharks.
  • 2 more unlockable mermaids: Check the shop occasionally to see if mermaid silhouettes show up. If you hover your mouse over them (tap on mobile) they will tell you how to unlock them in the shop.
  • Goldfish Multiplier: Each Shark Hunt that you complete for the first time will add on to this multiplier, earning you more goldfish when you eat them!
  • Cheek Stuffing: When you start to swallow many small fish at a time, your cheeks will start to fill up. Keep getting small fish or finish with a big one to get bonus food!
  • Bellies can get bigger
  • Music Toggle: click/tap on the bottom left button at the title screen to turn music off and on.


Changed:

  • Gulp audio overlaps removed


Last Update:

  • Shark Mode
  • Balancing and other adjustments
  • Port to iOS, maybe other platforms

Thanks for your support and patience!

Im having so much trouble trying to outgrow the sharks and idk if theres a slild way to really out grow them. I did by a fluke once but now I'm  stuck. Any suggestions to help out here for shark hunt and crusing to get bigger faster?

Try using the abilities the best you can! The first level is a actually a bit hard to get to the right size, try stockpiling by getting a bunch of small fish then finishing with a big one for bonus food. In level 2, eel dash into the shark when you are almost her size. Level 3, aim your fire at her. Level 4, you can swallow her a bit earlier if you have the puff vacuum.

Ok, on the last level on mobile my game crash due to double tapping to active my squid power to multiple just as I got ate with the 2 clones. And man that last level is something 


Edit: one criticism is for the shake mermaid is to show rhe amount of sharks you need to get cause it is frustrating not knowing the amount you need to unlock. You know you need 10000 to unlock the alt color and Clear the arcade mode for the other but for shark there's no idea in game to show progress. 

Yeah there are too many objects in the last level lol and okay! I'll put in the number 

thank you!

Huge update! The wait was worth it!

I've encountered a game-breaking bug twice- sometimes if you have the pufferfish power up and get close to a heart egg, the egg goes flying to the right. After this happens, Sharks stop spawning so you can never lose.

And a bit of a minor issue, when you have the Cajun power up and your belly small, her torso and her tail are disconnected slightly.

Aside from that, love the update! I finished the Shark hunt, the last level was extremely challenging, but I pulled it off.
