    Love this game

    So yeah - found this game on tiktok. I really enjoy playing this game. It’s very fun. I know it just came out but I have some ideas that could make it more fun! -Different levels / settings Basically after you complete a certain amount of turns you can move onto a different scene. This gives the user something to work towards. Similar to how in games like Candy Crush after you complete a certain amount of levels you move onto a new setting. -More Fish / Cheaper Fish By more fish I don’t mean a bunch of completely different fish. Maybe 5 that have the same design of the default fish, but different colors. Pricing could go in tiers. For example: all default style fish would be 30 coins. Then another type of fish with a few different styles for like 50. And so on. -Adding a Quick Tutorial The controls are relatively simple. But I think adding a quick little tutorial at the apps first open would be very helpful. This is such a cool game and I can’t wait for the progress it makes ❤️

    AMAZING but I have a few suggestions

    This app is really good and really fun to play. I found it on TikTok!! I have never wrote a review in my life but I think there are just a few suggestions I have 1.Maybe throughout the levels you could change the scenery like for instance it could be snowing at level 10 And maybe the fisherman is a cowboy at level 20 2.You could put coins in the river so people could collect more coins 3.While playing there’s a corner to turn into the next waterfall maybe you could switch up the corners instead of just the normal hexagon thingie. I love the game so much thank you!!

    Great Game!

    I originally thought this game would be a lot better but it’s still fun!🙂 Additions To The Game I Think Would Be Good: Logs, these would be fast moving and you would need to jump over them. More fish, I know the game is new and just was realesed but we need new fish😌. New locations or areas and leveling up like a pass for free and every level had a small or large amount of coins or a new fish. That’s it! P.S still love the game just some changes I think would be good 💕🙂 . Make sure to keep your head up on any hate on the game your to good for them! Have a good night or morning.🙂🤍💕😃😚🙃

    TikTok

    I saw this game on TikTok and I love it, I already have the glissy and now speed running the game. But I have a view suggestions, I think that there should be a leaderboard for people to look at to see who’s at the top and where they are. I also think there should be different maps, like a jungle and instead of bears chasing you, there are crocodiles. Or like a snowy town, and instead of bears, there are polar bears. One last thing, when you get into the higher levels make the bird more predictable of where it’s going. Thats all the suggestions I have for you!

    🔴MORE SUGGESTIONS🔴

    I gave suggestions before and after playing for a while I have a few more. First I want to list some of my favorite things in the game »Only ads if you want to revive or get 100 coins, often when people play games and they are overloaded with ads they get annoyed. That’s one of the main things I see on other game’s reviews » •Power ups, in one of the small ponds that you have to jump to get to, you could put power ups like super speed, higher jump, extra life, etc. •I said this in my last suggestions but HATS HATS HATS. I think you should be able to buy hats along with fish skins • 👏VARIETY👏 Different animals besides just bears! Different birds! Logs you have to jump over! Rocks! TUNNELS! •MUSIC STAYS OFF IF YOU TURN IT OFF BEFORE •BONUS LEVELS!! Like said above, PEOPLE GET BORED and have short attention spans. ESPECIALLY children who are the main demographic for the game. ≈Thank you for reading! I hope this helps

    First reviews

    For now, I’ll give it 5 stars. For a week to make, it’s really good. Some suggestions tho: the bird thing doesn’t have any texture, and is just two blocks. I can jump on the land and move up the stream to avoid everything, so maybe only allow 3 seconds on land at a time, and then you lose after that? Also, I’d love to see more obstacles. Also, maybe try to make the water textures blend better, because the river and the lake don’t meet perfectly and they have different texture. Other than that, AWESOME.

    I enjoy the game

    The game is super fun to play and grinding for the skins makes it way more fun. It gives you purpose and provides tons of playtime plus you can play it on the go whenever you want. It does have a few bugs but over the updates they have shown up way less often. The guy who made the game has been sharing this thoughts and the finer details of the updates on his tik tok and it gives the game a more lively community. I play it all the time and I definitely recommend it. :)

    LOVE IT! >ideas below<

    Okay, I love this game! But I have a few suggestions 1. Make it like a ravine so you cant go on land. When you go on land you’re really slow but then you can’t really get back in water. 2. Make the fish more maneuverable. This would make it a lot easier, and more enjoyable. 3. Auto-Jump. This would make it a lot easier because we don’t have to focus on around us, AND having to jump. Auto-jump would make it better in general because when you jump the joystick stops working and move. 4. For some of the levels the bears are blocking the path making it impossible to get by, ending your game right there. maybe space them out or for those parts make the stream wider. You did great for only 7 days of work! Keep up the great work, man! This game has so much potential! Can’t wait to see if you make more games in the future.

    I love this game

    I love this game i saw this guy on tiktok making a game and i instantly followed him to follow along. I was waiting for the release of the game and am so happy it’s finally out! It’s so addicting and love playing it. Haven’t seen a single bug/glitch yet. Keep making games because you sure are good at them. Ideas: make a jump button. I saw you might make one. make the bears a little faster. Add people rafting down the stream fishing might be a cool little feature. It would be cool so it’s a moving source of a fisherman. Love the game!

    This Game is Amazing!!!

    I had been seeing the game on TicTok every since the TicTok fish had been announced! It looked like a fun game and I promised I would download it. I completely forgot about it until I saw your TicTok about the game and how it finally was out! I decided to buy it and I love it. At first it’s a little hard to control but you learn slowly. If you add a little more obstacles or like a competitive mode where you complete challenges to get points and whoever has the most points get a reward. Other than that amazing game



  • By BaconBoy51

    Really impressive for a weeks work

    This game is simple but really addictive and I saw you on tiktok and thought of two suggestions. 1. A boss battle every 10 or 20 rounds and you have to avoid there attack and jump on them to defeat them, if you defeat them you get some extra coins. Then for some new skins you could have some that only unlock if you’ve reached a certain level in the game. The game works fine for me there are no bugs whatsoever (for me) the only criticism I have is the models and texture



  • By xxj.lopezxx

    AMAZING!

    This app cured my glizzy gobbling problem. I was recently an addict and i would gobble all the glizzy that got in my way, but after finding this app and playing it for a couple of seconds I lost my virginity and also found a cure for pain(not true still living in pain😔). The app also saved my fish from drowning, gave me the ability to time travel, and showed me how to fly. I now live in a tree and have no worries about life all thanks to this app. Highly recommended.

    The Game is Alright!

    I stumbled across this game on tiktok, so I immediately downloaded to see what it was like. It’s very simple, but the ‘birds’ confused me because they look like flying crosses. It would also be nice if you added a tutorial on how to play the game on the start screen if you forget the controls, and the controls are a little bit hard. Do I press on the square in the middle of the control pad to jump or do I just press anywhere? The game has basically no pop up ads, but that makes sense because the game is not made by a company. Some of the fish are very pricey. Make cheaper fish with money bonuses so that you don’t get discouraged when you start playing the game. So basically a summary of my review is just, made a tutorial helping you learn how to play the game and make some of the fish cheaper.

    What is this game?

    I saw the reviews on this game and I thought that since they were so good I might as well give it a shot. After playing the game for 20 minutes I was already bored. The game is a constant repetition of going up a waterfall and avoiding obstacles. There is no change whatsoever in each waterfall you climb, they are all exactly the same. Also, the jump mechanic in this game makes no sense. The only time that you have to jump in this game is to get coins at the coin waterfall, which is difficult to even traverse. I found that when I played this game the only times I would die would be at the coin waterfall. This game is not good yet, however, I can see how the developers can improve the game. It has a simple concept that can be made much better. One example would be to make each waterfall random, or at least make it so every single one is not the same.
