FRY345  Fresh platform game.

this classic platform game has turned dark and twisted into Gish! Fundamental rules of movement are changed and attacking is very unique.

I recommend to all.

IAN LUECK  Kudos to the developers for trying something different in the usual sidescrolling platform game. The multiple distortions of the blob make for some nice variations. Gameplay needs a bit of work, mostly in the sluggish controls. Jumping alone takes many seconds to perform, which makes it a chore, and it's too easy to get stuck to... anything. Excellent presentation, though (especially in the blob's animations and the jazzy music).

PKA  Aren't you trying to run Gish1.3 alone? It is an update file for Gish1.2 demo.

Monitor depth must be set to millions to play this game.

I'm using OS10.3 and running this game fine. So, it is not a matter of OS compatibility.

ANONYMOUS  You HAVE to PLAY this game to get it.

You move a blob about that can stick to walls or slide down holes.

I don't know if I felt more like the Terminator robot, or like "Venom" from spiderman comics.

JOHN E.  You control... goo

yes a piece of goo and it's AMAZING!

keys "A" "S" and "D" control if you are STICKY, SLICK, or HEAVY... .and combinations thereof.

Spacebar is sometimes called jump... but it's more accurately expand. It helps to tap it when you are HEAVY under water being STICKY to grab a slab and try to wiggle it out of place and throw it.

This game must be played to be appreciated the video demo will come close.

AET  What does the Console's CrashReporter say about it? Sounds like it could be a graphics/resolution issue they need to resolve.

MATMAN  This game is actually quite good! I really liked playing around with all the movement options (play the game and you'll see what I mean). It is almost an original game! It's a platform game, but you can go 'almost' anywhere! Played great at 1280x960 on my 1Ghz G4. The music is a little glitchy but only a little. Definitely worth the relatively modest download.

TIM  Ran quite decently on my 450MHz G4 w/ Rage 128 Pro. "Minimum requirements" are lower than what is posted.

A game with good style that is very innovative and fun to play.
