Fish Escape: 2.PNG 3.PNG 5.PNG 6.PNG

You are a fish trying to stay alive. Avoid cats and obstacles to escape multiple rooms. This is a physics platformer game where you are a fish in a fishbowl trying to stay alive.

There is no sound in this game, as I never had time. I tried some new things out here, so i'm glad I participated.

Now to play your amazing games!

Good take on the theme. Graphics is sweet. But really lacks the sound effects, they would really benefit here.

I struggled at first level but once figured it out how to move properly, ran throught all the levels flawlessly.
Overall this looks like a fully finished fun mobile game. Good job!

It was a little difficult to slow the fish down in some places but it was fun and I liked how the gameplay tied into the theme! :)

Nice graphics! I loved the kitty paw ^^
Therefore I wasn't able to understand correctly how the bar was filling? Was it the speed ? The bumps ? I didn't get it, but finished all levels pretty easily.

Cool idea, cool graphics, clean execution. Was a bit confused on what exactly 'fills' up the bar and what counts as 'collision', so couldn't get very far. But Good Job!

@grena @simukas Yeah, I should of told the user that the bar fills with speed (or at least I think it is a bit random lol). I'll add this if I ever carry on with the game.

As simple as effective, exactly like the graphics. Very good job, you could totally expand this and add more features and levels!

Really nice and solid work! I would love to hear the audio you plan on adding, since I imagine it will add a lot of life. The visuals and gameplay are polished, and it was fun to get better at it. Definitely with touch controls it could be a neat mobile game. Great job!

@goblinqueen thanks the sounds will probably take me twice as long as the game took to make itself lol. But im glad you enjoyed it.

It is really innovative way to represent the Theme, Really Classic Graphics. Could use some Audio tough

@sthealthinator yeah I will admit that audio is definitely something I need to look at. Maybe next LD game I will do so!

Thanks for the entry.

Interesting mechanism, smooth movement and clean and simple graphic serving its purpose. With the sound creating the mood it would be production ready game.

PS.: My all knowing partner loves the game. :)

Super solid entry. Clean graphic. There is a very good opportunity for funny sounds of the playground. Just add some features and go mobile. :)

Super. I really miss the sound. Even though it's not a unique idea here, but the implementation is really well done! Well job sir.

The animation on the UI was very good, some small sounds like glass tink sounds would have improved it a lot. The only problem was that you have to switch to using the mouse whenever you die. Other than that great game!
