Guppy

The controls of this game are some worse i ever played ! spamming the right and left arrows to move nad yet the fish still doesn't move in the way you want ...+ is a boring game just swim around eat and don't get eaten ! so in one word booooorrrriiinnggg !!

The artstyle of the game is lovely, but that is about all that is good that I can say about it other than the Linux version of the game working fine. There is not much when it comes to the game: you are a fish who needs to eat flies while a big fish is trying to eat you, thats it. It is really boring in my opinion. I was done with it after only a few minutes as I feel like I have seen everything there is to be seen. And while the movement idea is clever (you move your fish tail left and right to swim around) it actually ends up being really frustrating.

[h1]Summary[/h1] Very minimalist arcade-like with unique fish tail movement mechanics to rack up a highscore. [b]Pros[/b] + Interesting movement mechanics [b]Cons[/b] - Too simplistic [h1]Overview[/h1] Guppy is a very very short minimalist arcade-like game with interesting controls, as a fish you move by flicking its tail left and right with the arrow keys. It is both very simplistic yet complex as how you control the tail may propel you faster and make complicated zigzagging patterns or circle around rocks. Although the movement mechanic is interesting the game is actually quite simple and there isn't really an explanation to what you're supposed to do when you start a game. Each session the map is procedurally generated and you swim about finding flies to eat while avoiding the large black fishes from eating you, for each fly you eat there is a counter keeping track of your highscore. Rinse and repeat. [hr][/hr] If you find my reviews useful do follow my [b][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/11028547-Dods-Echo-Chamber/]Curator[/url][/b] page for more!

You are a fish eating flies. Thats it. Try over and over to beat your high score. Simple and fun for a bit. Nice to see a reasonable price for what it is

Game description key-points: This Gamash, two button fishy movement to gather flies and avoid big fish predator Overview: extremely simple and repetitive survival content, made in paint ;) ? small fish to maneuver between small rock and avoid being eaten. When you get the fly, the predator will come to the noise - either swim away or hide under a leaf. when reaching the score 20, there are 5 fishes - so Die Hard ;)

Not much to the game. You avoid big fish that want to eat you, catch flies and use the left and right keys to move. Pretty style but after playing for about 10 mins I can't see there's much to hold my attention.
