Lo! It is I, Rynov, bringer of Super Creature Hatch-a-thon and 8-bit Arena. I now bring you Fishy Tetris.

Use one of the 5 shapes, and create one or more aquatic sea creatures. Then say where you want them. The goal is to, at the very end, have all the fish fit tightly together like a puzzle. Do not let your fish overlap the grey outer boarder, as it might clash with the other fish. Names are optional. Have fun!
Oh, and feel free to make a good tank or maybe a few. Mayhaps even connect many tanks with tubes and stuff. Yeah. That'd be cool looking.

OK! Added a combat system!

PM me for questions, or use this thread if it would be good for everyone to know. Feel free to come to me about ideas for special abilities and stuff!

I love the idea but some things, like the shark's fin, don't fill the square enough imo.
Edit:
Here's my contribution:

Hehe, nice job so far. Would be cool if someone would make an actual Tetris game with these graphics.

yeah im sure theres got to be one able programmer one this forum
who could program a basic game like tetris in a matter of minutes.
maybe pixeljoint should have a games section, hint hint sedge,
where people create games from pixel art. blueberry pies and
B.T.G's collab was metioned about becomming a jigsaw.

Looking good, everyone. I was thinking of adding a stats and combat system, each fish would be worth a certain amount of points depending on the HP, special abilities,  and all that junk it had. Working on it now, actually. Feel free to use it when I post it. It would be sort of like a puzzle game. Real easy and fun. Ok, adding the combat system at the start of the thread! Feel free to offer crits!

I've seen you do this before, your dithering is amazing but the colours are too similar. :P

i dont think he said you did, its nice dithering but perhaps a little
faint, and in a game it wont be zoom-able, u should change the
colour slightly, dont let ur hard dithering go to waste.

The Orange Razortail. It has a sharp tail.
I may be working on some sort of fish stat card later.
EDIT: Attacks: 12 pts, Summon Cost: Still 20 pts.

i think tetris was a better idea, that was the original collab.
it would also be easier to program, pixel outlaw is already interested.

True. Perhaps we could make the tetris pieces cubes with little fish in them. That would look much better, I think. That, or make the fish really blocky.

It's a HUMP!  Not a fin.
But if it were to be in a tetris game, the fin would work better.

Smaller fishies? Mayhaps we could add puzzle fighter elements instead of clearing rows, like you get a bunch of a similar type or color and they swim away as a school of fish. I think that'd look cool.

I guess I never really asked Rynov if he wanted this to be a game. If he gives it the nod, I will ask you for credit names so I can begin. I'm not busy right now so I could get started.  I might be able to do that battle system also.

Geez, I used a lot of "I".  (I*10!)

You definately have your nod, although it would either have to be tetris or a battle system. I say battle system, personally I think it'd be super awsome. But tetris is fine if everyone wants it. Perhaps we could discuss the game specifics over Msn or Aim, if that's okay with you?

I'm not all to certain as to whether this is still going or not, but I'll still post my submission.


The 'evil ocotopi' (and yes, I am aware that 'octopi' is the pural ;P), I'd also not realised 'til after I'd finished it that is resembled B.O.B's avatar quite a bit... :\

We've called the project off due to unorinality. Nice octipus though. In the end it was decieded that the game was the sole property of it's patent holders, however the battle system we might do.
