Well, Mike ran in to problems getting ldjam.com working properly with about 12 hours left in the Compo, so this is the backup plan.

I like the sound and graphic. Interesting concept and a fish that looks like Trump.

Oh god why. The fish tank is filled with blood now. Blood and bones and the wails of the restless dead. You monster.
(Also the music is good.)
lol i also made a aquarium game but we went completely separate ways. It was pretty fun and i can appreciate you making your own music for it but honestly it was kind of piercing and annoying since you noticed the loop very clearly. Also i mostly heard the music through my right headphone, but that might just have been my headphones? I can appreciate the effort put into it though : )
I love the graphics and the music on this, the orange fish is adorable but the fish tank is so cute and simple too
I like the cute looking fish, buff fish is okay too.
Music is 10/10 and super sexy
The game directive is pretty interesting from other games I've seen with the concept of fish as it's something you're not really expecting when you get to the end...Aside from the fantastic music and simple design it was a generally fun game
The owner of the fish is a monster. Quick, kill him before he spawns!
Joking aside, interesting concept, awesome graphics and sound. I like how the aquarium gets dirtier dy day 3.
This is a fun little game. Sound and graphics are on point. Game play is a bit simplistic. Also, near the end, the bones of the other fish seem to be able to block you from getting to other fish to eat, which can cause some issues.
I ate my brethren... I'm not proud. The audio was really nice.
Very neat idea that you're competing with all the other fish for food, and also that you recreated the aquatic version of Hamlet :P Cool work!
Hahahahaha he he must have made a shitty game! It was fun, but too easy, and I was hoping the darkness was an effect for if you're about to die!
High five, fellow fish friend! Loved the gradually deteriorating music, it greatly helped the mood already there with the theme and graphics.
It was near the end when I had to resort to cannibalism that I wasn't exactly sure what I had to do. I tried eating, but it didn't restore my health much, and at times, even touching the fish just moved them around. I also wasn't able to reach fish that had been pushed to the bottom of the tank.
That aside, I did have a lot of fun in the first few stages. I love the change in music from happy to dissonant and twisted. Very fitting. The main character fish is funny looking and I like that a lot. I am curious as to how the owner of the fish was able to feed them constantly for the first few stages while remaining at his computer all that time, lol. Why couldn't he perform that same magic before all the fish died? And these seemed like regular feeding methods to me.
haha, overall, I enjoyed the dark humour.

Poor fishies. I love how the tank gets nasty. The little fishes messages were great, although a little spammy.
Very funny, and decently fun to play! It's a lot more morbid than it seems at first, but that makes it even funnier. Good work!
Well wasn't this a surprise :D At first I was kinda annoyed at the short music loop, but once day 2 arrived, I figured out where you were going with it and then it started to get really gloomy :D I think it would've been better if you wouldn't have noticed where the loop resets (there's a slight pause).
Didn't survive the last day, couldn't quite reach everyone in time, but a funny (and gloomy) idea anyway :D
You had me cracking up. I was live streaming it last night and just laughing my head off, especially eating my brothers.
I died ): This had a lot of nice little touches, good job!
I liike it. It has a very dark mood in end. haha
The controls are easy and it has a nice music. Good job! :D
My fish was so buff, he clearly has a stock of protein shakes stashed away somewhere. I guess he needed the other food to carb blast. Cool game, hopefully your fish are okay.
I am a very weak fish :(
Nice little game you got there!
Loved the art and music. Keep rocking!
Oh man, this game is much more hardcore than what it seems at the beginning :'( Hope that is not based on a true story :D
