I Am Fish

I Am Fish is a physics-based adventure game where players control a small fish trying to return to the ocean. The game starts in a pet shop, where several fish friends are separated and placed in different environments. As one of the fish, your goal is to escape captivity and find your way back to freedom. The journey takes place across a series of challenging locations, each filled with hazards that require careful movement and planning.

A Journey Through Unfamiliar Worlds

The environments in I Am Fish are varied and unpredictable. Players must navigate city streets, rooftops, rivers, and homes, often inside containers like glass bowls or water jars. The controls reflect the awkwardness of moving as a fish out of water, creating unpredictable and chaotic gameplay moments. Each level requires both patience and adaptability, as even small mistakes can send the player back to the last checkpoint.

Tools For Escape

Throughout the game, the player uses available containers and environmental elements to reach new areas. Navigation involves rolling across flat surfaces, dodging traffic, avoiding drops, and staying submerged as much as possible. Understanding each environment and its risks is key to making steady progress.

Main gameplay elements include:

·         Controlling a fish in or out of water

·         Using bowls, jars, and puddles to move safely

·         Avoiding falls, predators, and environmental hazards

·         Learning each fish’s unique movement ability

·         Reaching checkpoints and discovering new paths

Different Fish, Different Styles

I Am Fish features multiple fish characters, each with its own personality and skills. Some can glide through the air, others can inflate to bounce, and a few have more aggressive movement patterns. These differences allow the levels to feel fresh and encourage experimentation. As the story unfolds, the paths of each fish start to connect, bringing emotional weight to their reunion efforts.

A Story About Freedom

While the mechanics provide humor and challenge, I Am Fish is also about persistence and reunion. Each level symbolizes a small victory in the larger journey toward home. The game does not rely on complex storytelling but instead lets the environments and obstacles communicate the struggle. With its physics-driven approach and evolving level design, the game provides a light but meaningful adventure that rewards creativity and patience.
