Famous Nessie is a game about the infamous Loch Ness Monster. She's not really a monster though, she's just a cute little thing!

The real monsters are the people. They want to take pictures of her. Paparazzis and tourists: all they really want is a nice, clear picture of her.

The game is surely not extremely polished and lacks a lot of proper audio. Sorry for that.

Not gonna spoil this one too much for you guys. Instructions are in the main menu. Have fun! And please submit your bugs and suggest improvements! :D

You guys really gave a lot of details on this one, it certainly compensated the download time. I felt some pixel dragging mostly under water but i fear my pc as something to do with that. It's a simple and fairly visually pretty game that could be a applied for young generation's usage.

I definitely love the atmosphere for this game! Nessie just locks so cute, and the music is so upbeat and wonderful!

It ran a little slow on my laptop (but not too bad) and I was a little confused at first but once I got the hang of things, that I needed to go outside the water to eat but not run into tourists it got rather fun! It feels rather satisfying to "sink" under the water and surface again.

I wasn't sure why there needed to be a button to float if I can just point with the mouse and move? (I didn't know you were supposed to use the mouse!)

The only other thing is I wish it was a little clearer whether I was in the line of sight of the people taking pictures or not, I felt I was stumbling most of the time.

But other than that, great game and awesome graphics!

Impressive work, making a 3D game in such a delay is not an easy task! It's a shame because it lags as hell on my PC (I won't blame you for this...) but I still had a nice time. Not sure I understood clearly the pictures mechanics but it's okay. I enjoyed swimming around :)

This gameplay has a great variation for a jam game. Nice work!

Nice solid Nessie entry (as I did one myself, I'm now on a quest to play all Nessie games). I had fun playing. If there was something, I didn't realize how (if it was possible) to control the camera-position, so it felt a bit random trying to avoid the visual field cones. Besides that, fun game.

This looks so adorable!

It's maybe a bit too easy, you can just spam the eat button on land and don't even have to find the berry bushes. Also in the middle of the lake there's no way to be detected, is there? Maybe the difficulty is just right for a game for kids though. :)

I'm on the same quest as local minimum to play all the Nessie games out there (check out ours) and this one is probably my favorite so far.

Metal Gear Nessie? is that you? :)
Well this kind of game make the catalogue refreshing.
It was a great idea to incarnate one of the famous monster! :)

I found it cute to get out the water and sneak behind paparazzi to get some food and get back to the wated as nobody could have seen me. Really cute idea!
Refreshing! :)

I love this idea! Its a bit too easy (this are the most stupid tourists I have ever seen :D) but apart from that I love the story, the style, the music, the newspaper, everything is so cute :)

The visuals are pretty, and Nessie is pretty cute in this game! :3

The idea behind the game is also quite nice, it's like a "kid-friendly" stealth game. :P

This is a very cute looking game! It does seem quite easy, but the graphics and animations are nice :)
