Game description

Fish Fillets NG is strictly a puzzle game. The goal in every of the seventy levels is always the same: find a safe way out. The fish utter witty remarks about their surroundings, the various inhabitants of their underwater realm quarrel among themselves or comment on the efforts of your fish. The whole game is accompanied by quiet, comforting music.

Latest news

  • 9th September 2011   -   Minor release - Fish Fillets NG - 1.0.1
    What's new

    • Fixed a bug in the last levels. Fish were unable to swim to some places. It happened next to the room border. The bug was introduced in version 0.9.2. Big thanks Radek and Mirek Olsak for discovering it.

  • 25th August 2011   -   Fish Fillets Clone
    Mirek Olsak prepared a Fish Fillets Clone. It contains new rules and new levels. In the game, fish die less often. And objects have friction.

    What's new

    • Dutch spoken dialogs for all levels (by Astrid de Wijn and friends).

      pushing a partially supported object

      You could switch back to the less restrictive rules by using "strict_rules=0" config option. Thanks Brian Raiter for reporting the discrepancy.
