Fishing Girl

Fishing Girl is an arcade fishing game available on the Xbox LIVE Indie Games platform. At its heart there is a simple, fun fishing mechanic. And built around it is lots of structure like equipment upgrades and badges to keep the game fresh and interesting. There's also a cute story woven in. I really hope you'll like it!

I wrote it in C#/XNA using my XNA library. The game itself is technically unremarkable; all of the interesting bits are tucked away inside the library. Rather, the game is interesting for its design. It takes its premise and artwork from the Lost Garden Fishing Girl Prototyping Challenge. With that foundation I used play testing feedback and lots of iteration to take the game in my own direction. I'm happy with the result, and the critics seem to agree.
