About FISH
FISH is a Windows‑only indie title that mixes side‑scroll platforming with run‑and‑gun shooting. You control a fish that carries a firearm, moving through a series of levels while confronting enemies and occasional boss encounters.
After each level you receive money that can be spent on new firearms for the next stage. The game advertises a humorous, stylized art direction, full controller support, split‑screen co‑op, Remote Play Together, Steam achievements, cloud saves and leaderboards.
01 / THE GUIDE
Run & Gun Gameplay
The description calls the core loop "fun classic Run & Gun gameplay," indicating that the fish can move horizontally, jump across platforms and fire at enemies as the primary actions.
The phrase "kill as many enemies and smack up that BOSS" shows that enemy combat and occasional boss fights are presented as part of the level experience, though the description does not state they are mandatory to finish a level.
- Observe enemy patterns early to choose safer routes.
- Practice timing jumps while maintaining fire on targets.

Weapons and Money System
At the end of each level the player is "awarded with MONEY you can use in the next level to purchase deadly firearms," establishing a spend‑and‑upgrade loop between stages.
The description emphasizes that the fish is "armed" and that new guns are a highlighted feature, confirming that multiple firearms become available as money is spent.
- Save money for higher‑damage guns if later stages feel tougher.
- Experiment with different firearms to see which matches your platforming rhythm.
03 / THE GUIDE
Unique Art Style
The game is marketed with a "funny, unique stylized artstyle that could get a chuckle out of you," indicating that visual humor is a core presentation element.
Because the art style is highlighted as a selling point, background details and character designs are intended to contribute to the comedic tone.
- Pause briefly to notice visual jokes in the background.
- Compare the style to other indie platformers to gauge its distinctiveness.

Co‑op and Multiplayer Options
Feature tags list Multi‑player, Co‑op, Shared/Split Screen Co‑op and Remote Play Together, confirming that the game can be played with others locally on the same screen.
Remote Play Together streams the host’s session to a remote player, allowing a second participant to join the host's session remotely.
- Use split‑screen if both players have controllers for local play.
- Try Remote Play Together when a friend lacks a second controller.
05 / THE GUIDE
Platform Support and Controllers
FISH is listed for Windows and includes Full controller support, DualShock Controller Support and DualSense Controller Support, confirming compatibility with major gamepads on that platform.
Additional Steam features such as Achievements, Cloud and Leaderboards indicate that progress can be saved online and compared with other players.
- Enable Steam Cloud to keep saves across multiple PCs.
- Test both DualShock and DualSense to see which feels more comfortable.
