Go Fish!

About

You control a tiny fish in a tight survival loop. Your goal is to chow down on smaller fish to grow bigger while avoiding the shark circling to eat you. The screen scrolls as you dart through schools of prey, balancing hunger and danger. The shark gets faster as you grow, turning every meal into a risk-reward calculation. Sound effects punctuate each bite and collision, with optional background music that plays nonstop during sessions. This Atari 2600 title leveraged early homebrew tech to save high scores using the AtariVox peripheral, a rarity for the platform. The cartridge edition features artwork from a fan contest, with packaging and manual designed by AtariAge collaborators. Released in 2005, it remains a niche favorite among retro enthusiasts for its simple mechanics and clever use of aging hardware. Available through the AtariAge store, it's a physical relic of the homebrew scene's early days.
