New Dopefish reference in "Harmony" - Doom engined

Post by Roobar »

Check out these screenshots from this (imo) crappy free game:

The interesting thing about this game is that the development took 8 (!) years!

If you're a Doom fan, try it from here: http://rabotik.nl/harmony.htm But although it has been in development for 8 years, don't expect much.

Looks pretty crap. If I wanted to play an in-dev-for-quite-a-whiles game, I'd replay Cave Story. For the nth time.

Still, Dopefish references are everywhere. Anyone played The Apocalyptic Game About Penguins?

I'm not completely convinced it's all crap. I'm enticed to download it and try out a few levels, and if I don't like it I'll stop playing it.

It's certainly a different interpretation of the fish, but what it's meant to be is most important. :dopekeen

Why is the game crap? I finished it and found it extremely enjoyable... Never noticed that easter egg though.

Nobody said it is crap, it just looks like it. I'm inclined to agree, good as the gameplay may be. :)
Wow look at me I'm lurking

Hey..

Post by thehackercat »

What if we made a Wolf3d mod? We could change B.J.'s face to Keen's, and have the raygun and stuffz.. :dopekeen

Plus, the final boss could be the almighty DOPEFISH..

..or Robo Red.

Aaah yes, remember the Dopefish graphics patch for Duke 3D? For a few weeks there I tried making a Keen graphics conversion for Duke, but there was just too much to do.

Well, it has to be a dopefish because that's what the writing on the wall decrees.

It's a pity the graphics designer has never actually seen a pic of the dopefish. >: :dopefish

I'm currently playing this game and I made a save file where I found the dopefish.

You can get it here

I can understand the rest of you not wanting to play this game but still having a curiosity for the dopefish. Believe me, it's not much better than it looks. I happen to be really bored right now. :tired
