About

FISH FEAR ME is a top-down Vampire Survivors-style roguelite where you fish up your enemies to fight, defeat, and sell them! Catch fish, uncover secrets, and hunt bounties to earn cash and forbidden knowledge, and use those resources to upgrade your boat, unlock new weapons and tools, and gain new abilities. Each region has new fish to catch, new bounties to fulfill, and new terrors of the deep. From the placid waters of Nightmare Lake to the subterranean wastes of the Shadow Sea, monsters lurk beneath the deep... Are you able to bring home the biggest catch?

You are being watched. The Leviathan, a cosmic force of death, will try to consume you after seven days on the water. At first, you won't be able to stop it; you're a mere mortal, and it's an infinite eldritch being. However, you have an advantage: a billion-dollar cosmic debt which returns you from the dead. With each new run, you grow stronger. The Leviathan is hunting you. Hunt it back.

The weapons at your disposal are as varied and chaotic as the fish you're fighting. Recruit fish into your skeleton army after thwacking them with a giant anchor. Ram into sea monsters head-on, then heal up using a magic lure. As you catch stronger and stronger fish that want to eat you, only smart build-crafting can keep you alive.

Eventually you'll make a mistake. You'll get too greedy, bring too many fish up at once, and get swarmed and destroyed. With each new run, you'll learn a little more, unlock more upgrades for the future, and get closer to your true goal: slay the Leviathan, pay off your cosmic debt, and become the greatest battle-fisherman of all time.

This game starts out extremely tough. If you stick with it for a bit and find some strategies, it gets a little easier, and becomes just tough. The tone is perfect, the soundtrack is multiple bangers that I can't get out of my head, and I'm having such a good time that I want to try to 100% it. If you like bullet hell/survivor games, this is a winner
I was tempted to put the main "FISH FEAR ME" title song lyrics in as my whole review, but sadly, instead I decided to make a legitimate review. "FISH FEAR ME" is a surprisingly fun game. There's a lot of different boats and weapons, which helps make everything interesting, and although the controls can be unintuitive, it feels deliberate, and it makes figuring them out feel rewarding. There's also a lot of things to figure out how they work (like some of the upgrades in the upgrade tree), and it makes getting to the point where you can beat the big boss rewarding. Overall, I would describe the game as fairly easy once you get things figured out, as it's pretty easy to build such that you heal more damage than you take, but it's still an excellent game.

It's sort of the Hades of fishing games
I enjoy silly fishing games, I love the conceit behind this, but I found it just too awkward to control. It just wasn't much fun.
Pretty good game! Seems like a lot of content with recent update only for $4 on sale. "Bring us the fish, and wipe away the debt"- bioshock infinite
