About

Pro Fishing: The Fishing Mini-Game Game was created in 72 hours for the Ludum Dare 46 Game Jam Competition! The theme was "Keep it alive".

The goal is simple: Aim for the bubbles, wait for a bite, and catch all the fish! Use WASD to move, Left Mouse to place and aim your rod, and try to complete your collection.

For this entry, I assisted with creating pixel art for items and fish, and helped balance the game's stats and systems. Unlike previous game jam attempts where we collaborated closely on code, I took a back seat in programming and development for Pro Fishing. Alex Reyes took the lead, successfully putting together an incredible game during the 72-hour effort.
