Food Chain: There's Always a Bigger Fish

Hello, itch.io! I'm Alex, aka Dragon King Studios. I recently discovered this site and its features through participating in a game jam and it seemed like a pretty nifty site, so I've decided to use it for hosting my games. I have two small games right now, one complete and one that's a work-in-progress. This is the complete one. I'm going to make another post for my work-in-progress game.

Food Chain: There's Always a Bigger Fish

So, funny thing about this game, I didn't intend to release it when I first started work on it. I was bored and hadn't been able to make any progress on my more ambitious projects, so I decided to switch gears and just develop a really quick, simple game using some royalty-free sprites I had. I thought that at best it would be pretty bland, but as it came along I was surprised to find it was actually turning into a pretty solid, fun little arcade game. That's when I got the idea that I could finish it and make it my first publicly released game. The original release was on Android via Google Play. The one on itch.io is a Windows PC version.

Anyway, in Food Chain: There's Always a Bigger Fish, you play as a tiny "tuna" fish (that's just what I'm claiming he is, I don't know what the sprite is supposed to be) and have to eat fish that are smaller than you to get bigger, until you're so big you can even eat the hammerhead shark that appears to get you, your little fish's arch-nemesis. After conquering the shark, you move to the next level and start all over again until you run out of lives. The challenge comes from having to weave your way through the schools of fish without hitting the ones that are too big for you, something which becomes harder to do as the levels progress and the screen begins to fill up with so many fish there's hardly any empty space left for you to move. Hope you like it!

LOL, fun.
