A 2D arcade game in a similar vein as agar.io. Players control a sad little fish or jellyfish of randomized colour who goes around eating smaller NPC critters. Local multiplayer is a must. The player is controlled by moving the mouse and the fish will always move at a continuous pace towards the mouse location and also shrink at a speed proportional to size. Alternatively to eating fish, the player can also eat bits of plankton to grow which spawn at random times. The art style is very similar to the online community 8( as is the philosophy and tone of the game. Special fish appear every now and then which can be eating for special upgrades, similar to pickups in games like the Binding of Isaac, where they increase or decrease any number of stats like shrinkage rate, movement speed, growth rate or turning speed, as well as pickups that give the player special abilities, for example being able to propel themselves forward quickly or getting an extra life. All pickup fish are based on various psychoactive substances, such as a lazy THC fish that will spawn additional plankton around the player at cost of a faster shrinkage rate, or a psilocybin fish that will mess up the game's shaders and make the player grow faster. Not all pickups have positive effects however, as a methadone fish would make the player jutter erratically and make them lose mass rapidly or a chloroform fish, which would knock the player out for a few seconds.
