Fancy Goldfish
The Fancy Goldfish.
Known as much for its stalwart vigilance as its regal appearance, much of the majestic creature’s true motivations are shrouded in mystery. Does it grant wisdom to those who ponder the depths in its bulging eyeballs? Are the subtle swishes of its tail in fact an elaborate dance to signal visitors from beyond the stars? Will the Fancy Goldfish be one day synonymous with enlightenment, wonder, and glory?
No.
Still, we must strive to understand the Fancy Goldfish if we are truly to understand ourselves. Yes, the Fancy Goldfish is forever in search of the delicious flakes, but why? For the first time ever, step inside the mind of the Fancy Goldfish and learn firsthand what drives it. Flakes. Pellets. And that’s probably it.
BUT BE YE WARNED!!!!
Many dangers lie in the tank for the unwary Fancy Goldfish. Too many flakes. Not enough flakes. Rival sea beasts, jellybean toes, forgetting what lies in that funky skull. Avoid hazards as you fight for survival, and do not fear. Should you be overwhelmed by dangers, you’ll probably forget about them in a few seconds…
As a side note, we recommend you use mouse controls if you can. They feel much better to us than the keyboard controls.

but this is a beautiful game, I love the art.
life is hard for me in this tank
I pooed and then died.
Poetry inspiring, was simple and a lot of fun!
I agree with KleinZach though, the controls were a bit weird, it was a struggle to move where I wanted to.
Took a try or two to figure out the controls - that I needed to be constantly pressing the buttons.
Collision is a bit fiddly at times, which sometimes adds and sometimes takes away from the humour. :)
At a slower pace, I would have something like this sitting in a little permanent window in the corner of my desktop...
Loved it!
Very Beautiful!
The controls were a bit strange, had a hard time controlling the fish.
