Tell me about your plans and how they got derailed by Fish.

Okay so my plans were to make a relaxing exploration game about a ghost in a UFO and a about a robot grim reaper. I had no ideas other than flying around and maybe sitting on a park bench on a planet but fishing for souls so you can talk to them and etc sounds like a good idea actually.

I did panic at first, OMG WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS FISH!?!1, but I think this will work nicely, I just hope I can do it in time.

What are you going to do about the fish?

I also already planned on making a totally different game than the limitation. I even planned a simple layout of each levels. Then the limitation comes hit me like a truck.

"FISH AS A MECHANIC"

Now I have to start back from zero. But I'm probably just going to do a simple food serving game with a theme of UFO (I know it's wack). I don't have any idea honestly. *cries*

But I do think it's going to be fun though. Can't wait to make this game. :)

sAMe

Maybe you could make the main character a fish alien?

I already imaginazing and plan a whole game, and when the limitation is uploaded, I'm screwed, Let's start from zero again.

I had planned on making a space platformer, pretty basic, but I was going to spice it up with some survival mechanics. Then at 3:00 PM (AEST), the fish came. I was HEARTBROKEN 馃挃

Maybe make the bad guys fish, or I dunno make a gun that shoots fish at enemies?

But if you remove the fish from the game, then does the game still makes sense?

In the game Super Paper Mario, Mario tried to go to space, but realized he can鈥檛 breathe. He instead finds a fish bowl, empties it out, and uses the bowl as a space helmet to survive and continue on! Maybe you can do a similar thing where you use a fish bowl to survive and the fish you take out of the bowl could be like a partner that travels along with or helps your character!
