Ia Ia! Cthulhu F'Thagan! I like the fish with guns. This game is pretty simplistic, but I think that's a strength here. It's pretty quick and intuitive to figure out what to do. The hand drawn art is also great. Nice work!

Love the vibe of this one, great art for the dialog characters!

Innsmouth vibes :D Loved to dominate humans!

Ah yes, my favorite part of Shadow Over Innsmouth, when the fish walked up onto the and spun in circles!

In all serious, I did like their design, even if was a bit goofy.

It might have been a good idea to make the player marker/indicator point a bit bigger, or maybe have a shadow or something though? I found that I lost track of where it was in larger levels, especially when the mob got desynced.

u look very strong on 2D Art, keep it up for the rest of the game

Great characters and I was very happy when I saw the fish with the shotgun in their mouth. I would prefer if I didnt have to kill chidlren, though.

This made me laugh! Pretty charming little game! It would have been hilarious if the fish could use the guns (could they?) Left some good scroes!

beautiful 2D art, nice that the game had a bit of story! Fun mechanic :)

An interesting concept and I over all enjoyed myself through the process. Your 2D art is really good, I'd try to capitalize on that more. The loud beat that plays at the start of dialogue was a bit much though. All the same, gave a good laugh and I had a good time. Keep it up.

I LOVE THE DRAGON!!

Very nice! Felt good to outplay the gunmen. It was a bit hard to control at first but got the trick quickly enough. There's a lot of content for 3 days, well done!

Unusual, but I like it

frozenfire92 2024-10-12 01:22

A very silly entry and surprisingly fun mechanics. Keep on making games!

Its a funny game !! Great art ! :) Capture d’écran 2024-10-12 234732.png

There was absolutely no need to make the fishfolk grab weapons with their mouth, but I chuckled everytime they did it. Dagon will be pleased with this one. Nice!

tommy 2024-10-13 11:12

Really really funny game, congrats! This shows that you do not need high-end graphics to have a great time! Controls of the fishfolks were a bit funky but I think that adds a lot to the mood of the game, which is really great. I also was able to have a couple of them pick up the guns, not sure if it was intended but it was hilarious as hell :D

A nice game, the art is great, well done!

tetracold 2024-10-13 17:42

Checked the game out because the character art caught my attention, it's rlly cool!

The game was funny, I enjoyed the creative take on the theme. the levels were pretty easy and I wish there was at least one or 2 that would offer a bit more of a challenge. but that isn't a big problem because a lot of the other elements made it enjoyable

Good entry!

diomont 2024-10-14 21:12

Great character art! The concept is pretty simple, and somewhat janky, but it's a fun little game jam game.

ditam 2024-10-15 20:15

Call me old fashioned but there's just something menacing about a school of fish breaking down your front door... Fun entry, plays smoothly too!

eugene-b 2024-10-15 20:17

Just finished this game. Very fun)) Sometimes, was not obvious how to control the fishes, but all other thing are really good.

azimiro 2024-10-20 10:05

This game looks fishy but in a good way. I really liked the art and the game was fun to play !

simex 2024-10-20 13:33

dude, this is so cool. it reminds me of a hybrid between the minion mechanics from Overlord and stubs the zombie. I think there are some really interesting game mechanics to explore with that. Grafupaliation on the entry!

Really great artwork for the cutscenes and I like how goofy the fish looked (and controlled). The beeping in the conversation confused me, if you were able to change that to text-talking sounds I think it would fit a little better. Aside from that, a really solid concept!

oliver-day 2024-10-20 21:40

I found the controller a bit hard to work with but impressive you could do a 3d game. I also liked the art/graphics.

kurakurture 2024-10-23 00:21

The game’s art is fantastic and really enhances the fun atmosphere, even with all the destruction and chaos—it’s a great balance! However, after breaking down the walls, I wanted to climb into the house, but a ledge from the foundation blocked me. It feels odd that the monsters still need to use doors when there’s already an opening.

That said, the progression of difficulty and levels is well-designed, keeping things challenging but enjoyable.

Overall, it’s a lot of fun, but allowing more freedom for movement after destruction would make it even better!

lyssa 2024-10-23 00:51

Loved this one didn't go too hard on the graphics but thats just what a game like this needed honestly. I had a lot of fun playing this I wouldn't mind playing a full endless version of this

Thank you so much for your Message. I am sorry if I understood wrong. I finally played your game as well - characters are very well written, splendid dialogues and awesome Art. I Like the Gameplay (and the destruction!) very much, nice Overall Package and one of the best humor for me so far!

tigerj 2024-10-28 03:50

What a great game! I like the controls and pathfinding that the fish have. They are so hilarious looking and awesome. Especially when they get the guns and spin around with them in their mouths. Thanks for sharing!
