How does your game fit the theme?
Players play as a robot "built" to help a giant dragonfish by removing harpoons stuck in their "scales". I also played on the scale of the dragonfish compared to the player character.

Relaxing gameplay and music, lovely art, interesting concept. Liked how the fish looks at you while you work - nice touch!
Love the harpoon mechanic fun little game. Glad to see someone finally interpret scale as in animal scale.
The animations and mood of the game are nice! It was relaxing to help the dragonfish.
Fun take on the theme! I loved the atmosphere and the animations, very fun and relaxing, nice work!
A cute game about helping a friend out, nice job.
I loved the vibe ( dunno why but it make me feel lik in dave the diver ), the mood is relaxing ( with music and lights ) and also nice interpretation of "scales" theme ;)
Really liked this, relaxing and the art is lovely.
great game (apart from the occasional jumpscare of the dragonfish's face)
happy to save the dragonfish!:)
Interesting use of the theme and happy to save the dragonfish!
Nice small concept! wasn't sure about what do to at first, but I managed to complete the game! it was enjoyable, congratulation for making this!
Cool concept with nice movement and controls. A bit simple but still fun!
Shadows of the colossus with fish (abs not ahah) the game is creepy but i can handle that, i'm an adult after all ! Anyway that was very cool to play good job !
cool horror game. Just a little empty. Maybe it is designed that on on purpose. This author is trying to tell us that life is empty and dark, so we must make the best out of it!
I approve the message!
The mood is definitely here, I love it! The camera work, the lightning and the sound design work really great together. Movement with the fish and grapling hook felt nice.
I would have liked it even more if there was a bit more challenge in finding or reaching the things to remove, but overall I had a nice time!
such a cute little concept- got all the hooks out! Clean and tidy art too! Overall very neatly put together, a great entry and take on the theme :D
The game did a great job of sucking me in and making me want to help the dragonfish! The art, lighting, and sound effects were all spot-on, the game mechanics felt very smooth (it was so fun to scale the fish) and I loved the animation/zoom-in for taking out a thorn. Overall a simple but polished game! Also interesting take on the theme~
Got me the first second! really good art!
I like your art, atmosphere ! The game is really really well done, well done ! Working on animations :o
The game has so much cool potential!
An improvement system, addition of monster attacks, small monsters to avoid.
The game is very cool, we want more ! :D
I really like the sound design! Also nice story (I like that you help the fish instead of fighting)
