Fishland King!
You are a hat on a dock with fishermen scattered about, wanting to kill you. So, like any sane hat would do, you grab your fish and start swingin'. Swipe at fish pellets to level up your fish, and kill all the fishermen to win
I took influence from Nuclear Throne for the gameplay, specifically its melee system, hence the name "Fishland King" (from Nuclear Throne's previous name, Wasteland King).

This was my sixth Ludum Dare game. The theme for this competition was "An Unconventional Weapon," and I scored 208th out of 2821 in the 'overall' category.
