Anglerfish

What happens when you make a game for just one person?
Anglerfish is, in a strange way, a study of the game medium. That is why we have entered into a collaboration with the let's player, ManlyBadassHero, to see what happens when you make a game just for one person. We made a special demo of the game for him. It was an exciting extra challenge, having to design a game for just one person.

You can see the result here, where MBH plays the game. (It's also possible to try this little game yourself. We've put a link to it below the video.)

We can now report that Anglerfish got well through the Steam Fest. Most who played the demo were pleasantly surprised, and many have made videos with the game or shared their feedback in other ways with us. This means that we have already made some small improvements to the game, which you can enjoy later. A big thank you to everyone who attended the Steam Fest, played the demo, shared our game and pressed the wishlist button. It all helps.

We can now celebrate it all with a new screenshot here! We also just got a new trailer for Anglerfish. :o



It was a busy period before the Steam Fest, and here we have a number of lighter comic gifs that illustrate our process up to the Steam Fest. Otherwise, we can just tell that the work has been going well after Steam Fest. We are now having a short summer break. We really look forward to coming back and finishing Anglerfish!







We look forward to kill you in many interesting ways later this year!

What?! A demo with a dino?!
We are happy… Scrap that. We are excited to announce… That sounds wrong. We are fishy to proclaim the death of demoless times of Anglerfish. That sounds more like us. We have a demo now for Anglerfish, and you should definitely try it!

We want to give you an idea of what we are working on, and at the same time try to hide what Anglerfish is going to be, so you can still have a fresh beginning when you buy and play the full game. Yes. We are 100 % sure you will buy the game after playing the demo… Or we hope so… Please, will you wishlist our game at least?! We can’t even afford to buy new pixels that we can use to make new graphics for the game! The point was, before we start crying and begging, that we have a few surprises just for the demo. Like, we have 4 real Danish bands as guest stars ONLY for this demo! These are 4 really nice bands that are quite talented. Please let us know which is your favorite band of them. You also have the option to have some fake bands playing in the game instead of the real bands, which is meant as a service for those of you who make let’s plays. We don’t want you to get in any trouble with YouTube.

While you are playing the demo, we will keep on creating more… deadly surprises for you.

Thank you for spending some eye-time reading our rambles.

We will start doing a monthly update on the Anglerfish development here on Steam. But, instead of doing it through humble text or smartass videos, we will do it through drawn GIFs by Maria. She draws a GIF every week, which is posted on our twitter: @prof_villains







New trailer and screenshots!
We have come a long way with Anglerfish since we first showed it off. Therefore, we used a few days to totally update the Steam page with a new trailer, screenshots and gifs.

The new trailer starts with someone screaming and then getting eaten by a T-Rex. The actor doing the screaming is John’s (the writer and lead designer) mom. He always kills his parents in our games. So, look forward to finding his dead dad in the game.
