Super Starfish

I rarely review games, but this one certainly stands apart from the rest. I mean, for one, let’s take a moment to appreciate the graphics. The way the fishes’ paths meld with the various zone backgrounds just makes such beautiful, satisfying backgrounds that make gameplay so aesthetically pleasing. I love the wide selection of fish and the variety of zones, it keeps things exciting. I also appreciate that it’s not a pay to play game, you can still easily get the main prize from events without spending a dime. But what really set it apart was the customer service. In the most recent event it guaranteed a new rare starfish (if you didn’t already have them all) but mine glitched and gave me a repeat. I contacted customer service and within days got a response offering me to choose whatever the starfish for them to gift me. I really really appreciate this, and it makes me so happy to know that the people behind this game care about the players. Also, the addition of the fungles is so fun, it adds a little bit of spice and variety that is simple but amazing. I do think it would be nice if the amount of stars you get while swimming could transfer to currency, maybe every 100 stars is 1 shell and every 1000 stars is 1 moonstone? Other than that minor detail, I would definitely recommend this to anyone, absolutely love this game!! Also, just a small suggestion - for one of the fish collections maybe do some land animals with little scuba helmets or something? Just an idea, do with it what you will :)

A long time ago I was one of the people that jumped on the Subway Surfer’s hype train (get it, subway, train?). I played it for hours and it felt amazing when I finally got enough coins to get that new skin or collected enough parts to get the basketball player or alien. I also hopped on the Crossy road hype train, albeit I didn’t play it nearly as much as some of my peers, I still enjoyed it none the less. I collected around 40 skins before quitting, but all 40 of those I loved and was hellbent for a moment on collecting as many as I could. After I quit I stayed away from what I called “running games.” That is until I found this game. This game takes the idea of collecting skins in a distance game but makes it much different. There are daily challenges to test you and there’s a whole plethora of skins to collect. It even teaches you about fish! However, there is one thing I wish it changed, I’d imagine at higher levels it would be hard to collect new fish (I’m only at 6 right now myself) and for this reason it would possibly become boring. So I’ve got an idea. Every Sunday, allow for one free “super launch” that will give you one thing that you don’t have currently. This could be a new fish or decoration or even just a boat load of shells! This would allow for high level players to finish their collections, albeit with the risk of not getting exactly what they want. All in all, I do have good feelings for this game and I’m hopeful for its future. Thanks for reading my wall of text. Yeet.

This game is AMAZING!! I love the colors, it is truly BEAUTIFUL, and I am hooked on playing it. I love the idea of fish in space, it’s cool and flowy and just all around a great creation. HOWEVER, I do have a FEW tips on maybe making it BETTER...? These are just some suggestions, so you don’t have to use them, but I THINK that 1: You could make it so that players can turn their screens sideways so they could play with a fuller screen. As it is right now, you can only play it upright and the screen is cut off on either side. I think it would be sweet if players could be able to turn the screen and be able to have a fuller picture, you know? 2: The controls are a little wacky... What I mean by that is, right now, the way that you move your fish through space is by sliding at the bottom of the screen, right? Well, first of all, when you slide it, it’s a little off compared to how the fish actually moves, and that creates a kind of jerkiness where it’s easier for the fish to automatically hit one of the obstacles. Maybe if the controls were a bit easier to use and less jerky, more fine tune and made it less easy to hit things... I mean, I’ve been playing for a while now and I get so frustrated when the fish jerks and I hit one of the obstacles coming at me. Sometimes I feel as though it was created to make you loose. I think more people would play it if the controls were better. Anyways, those are my suggestions, I hope I helped in some way... I do really love this game!! Overall, it’s pretty darn cool.
