Fingeance is a fishy shoot 'em up that needs team-play rather than twitch-reflexes

By -

Free Game Thursday! Now this is great, a shoot 'em up that tries to do away with the traditional twitchy gameplay in favour of something a little more interesting with co-op.

The idea in Fingeance is that four players work together, as it places an "emphasis on teamwork and strategy". The focus was on making it a truly fun co-op experience, where even a novice player can make a difference to the team. The developers say to imagine "Faster Than Light meets Jamestown meets Team Fortress 2" and then "add four tiny fish, a comic book style, and a veneer of seething vindictive rage".

Sounds like an absolute blast, and completely free to play too. The developer doesn't even take donations on their itch page. Perhaps something to blast through over the coming weekend?

Available free on itch.io.

The gamepad support it's broken, at least for me. It works perfect under wine though. Maybe I'll play it with the kids at the weekend.

Worked without issues here with an Xbox controller, not even an official one either a cheapo one.
