Explore the Deep Blue Sea in 'Fish Face,' a Riff on Dreamcast's 'Seaman'

by Ben Deitz on January 23, 2011 at 05:00 PM

Fish Face
'Fish Face' is a little riff on the one-button control scheme found in its progenitor, one of the greatest "games" ever created: 'Seaman' for the Sega Dreamcast. All you need to play is the Z key, along with your razor-sharp reflexes and perfect timing (oh, and also a PC -- sorry, Mac users). Pressing Z will cause your protagonist, Fish Face, to dive deeper into the waters of the game's three courses. The goal is to pass through as many rings as possible as quickly as you can, while avoiding pesky jellyfish, murderous fisherman and anything that is not, um, you. Memorization is critical, as is learning how to control Fish Face's leaping abilities. (Judge your dive lengths carefully.) 'Fish Face' has warmed our hearts with its appealingly old-school looks and challenging gameplay -- and recalling one of the most absurdly hilarious games of all time doesn't hurt either.
