Really great game, Only improvement would be the aforementioned visibility issues. Bullets are too hard to distinguish from money, and I find myself losing lives to easily dodgable bullets. 5/5 if you fix this issue.
Oh screw you, Matt. I just got done playing Donkey Kong Country 2 when you released this, so now I'm primed to check every corner and every pit for secrets.
here's a few money-making tips to remember:
1: The best way to make money is bank interest. Interest is 2% of your total rounded down, so if you have $50000 dollars, then you get $1000, more than fishing could make you.
2. Fish prices change every 10 minutes, and all prices are based on the whale's current price. For example, if the whale is $50, then the noctopus will sell for $25, and the dragonfish will sell for $17. The whale can be anything between 1 and 100 dollars every 10 minutes, so to get the most out of your catches, wait for the whale to sell for $75+. And remember, don't sell your goldfish and snails.
Hope these help.
Fixing that in the next update :)
