Hook, Line and Thinker case designs

I’m making a fishing puzzle game called Hook, Line and Thinker. I started it on PICO-8 in a game jam and have since ported it to Defold so I can release it on Android and iOS. I’ve just done some variations on the case and I’m curious what people think! What’s your favorite? What would you change? Original tweet.

Edit: I should mention that the buttons at the bottom are enabled/disabled as appropriate, so two of the buttons on the right are currently disabled. You can see in the video what they look like enabled, the left symbol is light green and the top one is light blue.

I’m staying true to the 16-color palette of PICO-8.

And if you’re curious about my progress on the game so far you can follow me on Twitter. Here’s the latest progress update.

Really cool, nice to see that HLT is progressing! Like Björn, 2 and 8 are my favourites. And since you asked, I wouldn’t mind seeing a more sombre case among the ones. I call this one… Blue steel.
