Game

The fish will jump up, it's your job to try and catch as many as you can! Look out for the Piranhas, they'll ruin your day!

Keep your eyes peeled for health drops and Frenzy power ups to maximise your score!

How many can you catch? Share your high scores in the comments!

Background

I have only been learning game development in my spare time for about 2/3 weeks and this is the first ever game I have built from start to finish. 

CatchFish has been developed for the Pixel Game Jam 2024 to fit the Aqua theme.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated! I hope you enjoy playing.

I really love the graphics and had a lot of fun playing! 

Fun game! As someone who grew up in the inland I believe frenzy mode is real and it is what happens when people catching fish.

high score - 56

All this fish belongs to me. :-) Really beautiful game

Wow haha that was better than my best!

Great work! The frenzy powerup is so much fun. Here's my high score if anyone can beat it!

Insane score! Nice work, glad you enjoyed it!
