Fisklike (FishFest Game Jam 202404)

Fish-like is a game that I made for FishFest game-jam ! The game was made using Pico-8.

The game:

Fishlike is a real-time roguelike/dungeon crawler in which you play as a small fish who must navigate a hostile world to save his friends. Progress through randomly generated levels, rescue all your friends and eventually defeat the final boss and the game. 

But as a small fish, your enemies will be stronger than you!

Gamepad controls (E.g. X-Box):

• [Analog stick] : move
• [🠔][🠖][ 🠕 ][ 🠗 ] : move
• [A] or [Y] : Fire a dazzling shot
• [B] or [X] : interact
• [START]: Pause / Settings

Keyboard controls :

• [🠔][🠖][ 🠕 ][ 🠗 ] : move
• [Y] or [C] : Fire a dazzling shot
• [X] or [V] : interact
• [P] or [ENTER]: Pause / Settings

(If controls doesn't work check them using P or Enter --> Options --> Controls)

Playtrough:

If you are curious, this is a playthrough  video of all 5 levels and the final boss.

About me:

I'm Zellkoss, nice to meet you! I like to program in my spare time and recently I discovered Pico 8. I started making some prototypes with it and made a little puzzle game.

This led me to game jam, I wanted to participate in one and I found the FishFest 7 days game jam. It was perfect for me as I was on holiday. So here I am, with my first Game Jam submission ever!

I hope you like it, and comments and recomendations are welcome!
