Play 'The Unseen Depths' and check out my hand drawn pixel art game assets here - <a href="https://sebbyspoons.itch.io/">https://sebbyspoons.itch.io/</a><br>Should I go back and replace the Fish art with my own style, or should I focus on refactoring that Hook script first? Let’s chat!

Ooh creepy recommendation and timing! I literally just went back to that game a couple days ago since the jam ended! I took part as composer and sound designer with a team in that GWJ and we came #15 for audio and I was delighted, was a fun theme to make a game for! Great job on the game, might go play it again right now actually

Congratulations! As a very new Godot developer, I really like seeing and hearing about other developer experiences. I just tried the game and it is really fun. As for AI art, I understand why people are always split. For me I see it as a tool, like an IDE or Photoshop. I'm not using it to generate new art, but I do use it to clean up my images and smooth them out.

I would be super interested to see what changes you would make to your code with the power of hindsight!

Nice Job! I've always been a bit of a programmer, so good code architecture has always been beaten into me. Unless your prototyping, then you can do basically anything you want.

Oh my god I was part of this jam (we can see my game at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJcKwAy0O2c&t=622">10:22</a> haha) ! It was my first one ever, didnt expect to see a video about a game of this jam this late lmao<br>Your game was one of my favourites !

I would go back and change the assets, to be honest the game is a good idea and very workable. Go through those comments and make the changes the comments suggest. also maybe add more items not fish that can be caught.

There's nothing controversial about using AI generated images/sound in games. It's stealing.
