My LD56 Compo entry—nurture your tiny creatures! Gather fish and deliver them to groups of hungry baby penguins.
Fish must be within the drop-zone (the region surrounding a group of baby penguins) upon dropping. Delivering multiple fish in one go yields combo bonuses, and there's no penalty for delivering more fish than requested (given it fits in the drop-zone).
Spikes periodically emerge from beneath the ice due to climate change or something, and (dangerous) baby seals occasionally roam. Mis-dropped, uneaten fish will spoil and create additional hazards. Health is lost upon touching a hazard, or when failing to feed a group of baby penguins (because heartbreak). Touching a hazard also automatically mis-drops your held fish.

Took a sec to figure out how the game worked, once I did it was super fun! It gets really hard later on, with the dead fish and spikes building up. After a few tries I got 870 as my best.
This is very cute! Love the music, that and the title really set a "mood". I'm still a little hazy on why my fish turn to skeletons - sometimes I think I've gotten them to a pond, and then it's too late? Anyways, really fun. Adorable game.
@paloblancogames: The chain of fish have to be in the square before dropping them of---the ones outside of the square become fishbones. :')
