Fishie Fishie

Post by Pater Alf »

In "Fishie Fishie" you play a little hungry fish and it's your aim to catch and eat all the other small fish in each level.
Game is controlled with just a single key. Press it and your fish will turn right, let it go and the fish will turn left, tab it rapidly and the fish will swim forward. Sounds easy, but it's not at all. You will need some practice, before you're really able to control your fish the way you want to.
The game has nice graphics, sounds and music and it's fun to play.

Here's the description of the developer:

"Yesterday I played a game that had three different buttons for "jump". Three! I mean, really, what's happened to the world? How am I supposed to keep an eye on the kids, stay up to date with current affairs, and remember which button to press when I want to esape the toothy maw of an airborne crocodile? In protest I built Fishie Fishie, a game you play using exactly one button. Just one. If you want you can play it using lots of buttons, but there's not much point because they all do exactly the same thing! Fishie Fishie is a dazzling kalideoscope of high speed sea food, all lovingly illustrated by the fabulous Simon Lissaman."

The game is somewhat simple, and beautiful in its simplicity. The goal is clear and after a while the difficulty picks up nicely. The control(s) are a bit hard to master at first, but after a while you get more and more used to it, but it truelly is a hard game. Fun though. Good coffeebreak game.
