This one makes an appearance in another game of mine, Frontrooms: Normalities... A reverse backrooms, reverse anomaly game, which is more popular than I expected!

Demon Fish #14 is Zebrafish!
👿🎣☠🧭

My friend, InfiniteMetal, did a fantastic job testing the early versions of Demon Fish Dead Ahead, and their stream features a zebra redeem.. so this is a small goofy nod to everyone over there! 🦓

Demon fish #12 is Cheeks!
👿🎣☠🧭

For the post jam update I was frustrated learning to use Tiled for the level art and @seagoatgames.bsky.social was in the stream chat and called the interface "Cheeks"

naturally I was inspired by such a proclamation 😂

Demon fish #12 is Sifl!

It started to look vaguely like a sock puppet of the same name that I enjoyed as a kid 🤣

Anyone remember that show?

2️⃣ #aseprite - #pixelart 🎨
3️⃣ Tiled - level art 🗺
4️⃣ Godot - to make .exe 🎮

Demon fish #9 is Dead Eye!
👿🎣☠🧭

After fixing the initial jam bugs, enough people were enjoying the game that I decided to double the content and this was the first of the new common fish!

Demon fish 7 is Toothy!🦷

Did you know Demon Fish Dead Ahead was briefly mentioned by @brewotakumag in BrewOtaku #homebrew magazine? And that was before all the updates!👿🎣☠🧭

#pixelart #gameboy #GBC

One of the oldest areas in the game, that barely had any visual modifications since 2022 now has a redesign, i think it looks pretty cool, like a mountain

Bonus image, a dungeon using the same tile set but it bugged out because it surpassed the tile limit

#gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

oh yeah guess what im trying to make with zero experience #HelpMe #GBStudio

One of the demakes I'm still really fond of is Animal Crossing Fishalot Falls! (1/2)

The 6th Demon Fish is Stagfish!
👿🎣☠🧭

After the game jam was over I went back and more than doubled the content in Demon Fish Dead Ahead.. Then went back and doubled it AGAIN! 👀

So the upcoming steam release has over 4 times the content of the jam version!💯💯💯💯

It should be bug free now, still testing to be sure though!👍

The 5th demon fish made was Floppy! 👿🎣☠🧭

...Probably my favorite, but I'm not really sure why 😄

The jam version of Demon Fish Dead Ahead was made in 7 days and included a bug that set the players health to 0 after leveling up!😬

#pixelart #gbc #retro #gameboy

I'd love to be there if possible!

Feel free to send me the details when you plan it!
