Fishy Falldown Overview
Fishy Falldown was one of those simple Flash games you'd find on a free gaming site in the mid 2000s. It didn't have a complicated story or fancy graphics. You just loaded it up in your browser and started playing, which was part of its charm. The game had a clear, uncluttered look that made it easy to understand what was happening on screen.
You control a small goldfish that is constantly falling downward. Using the arrow keys, you steer it left and right to avoid obstacles, primarily green poison bubbles. Your goal is to guide the fish as far down as possible, collecting powerups like pearls along the way. The screen scrolls with your descent, and if you drift too far to the side and leave the play area, the run ends. The pace is steady, and the difficulty comes from the increasing density of hazards as you go deeper. It feels like a straightforward test of focus and reaction time.
