Tang Swim with the Fishies ... Can you find all of Tang's Starfish friends? This old school arcade platform game is for the young or young at heart. Navigate underwater mazes and avoid Bad Fish, Whales, Jelly Fish, Moray-eels and even Whirl Pools. Tougher than it looks, this friendly easy-paced game will challenge you with 40 levels, including the big boss himself, Octo the Octopus.
What's New
Version 1.0.7:
Updated it so that the BadFish turn up with a little more warning.
The challenge now is for you to complete all 40 levels!
Requirements
PPC, Mac OS 9.0 or later.
Be the first to recommend a similar software title.
Unsophisticated in design and limited in playability, this might appeal to children, or adults without imagination.
It's not all that interesting....it begs for a wider range of play; it seems rather crippled in its two dimensionality. It lacks any semblance of the "sizzle" that gives a well constructed game the ability to make the player want to come back for more.
This game reflects a rather hampered ability on the part of the developer....as if it were a school assignment in "Game Development 101".
I think the developer needs to push his limits a lot further, spend more time developing his skills.
Hi, thanks for the feed back, I will keep it in mind for the next title. It was aimed at Kids and to be as harmless as possible. It is my first game, it was 101 for me. I have now changed development tools which will address a few things, Tang originally was OpenGL this had added the extra something in the form of double the animation. It was unfortunate I had to disable it to too many issues involved with the Tool it was developed in. Regards Tim.
