Go Home, Mr. Fisk! is a challenging (im)precision platformer, where a single mistake may bring you all the way back to the beginning. Mr. Fisk must make his way up a mountain to get back home to his lake, but climbing is a challenge for a salmon not used to moving on dry land.

nice rage game
it is a good precision plat-former. If you don't like it, you haven't lost anything by trying it. Good game.
"Go Home, Mr. Fisk!" is a wonky physics game, you know the kind of game where instead of playing the game you wrestle with deliberately badly done controls and badly done game physics? That's what this is. It wasn't successful. It's not truly free, either. What do you do in the game? You control a fish and "platformer" your way around the 2D environments with badly done physics. Making the controls bad on purpose is one of the worst approaches to game design and that coupled with very mediocre technical delivery are too much for the mildly amusing fish theme of the game to win across. On the topic of visuals, the weak looking 2D retro assets seem like they'd be more at home in a browser game or a mobile app. 3D graphics accelerators hit the mainstream of PC gaming in the mid 1990's with cards like the ATI Rage and Voodoo3D, there's no excuse for such poor 2D graphics in 2025. That alone is enough to disqualify this for recommendation. You're forced to sign a highly questionable yet legally unenforceable End User License Agreement... for such a relatively low effort, low quality product, this comes across more as a delusion of grandeur than anything else. This agreement includes questionable requirements that may attempt to revoke consumer law protections that gamers expect to have, which is also highly problematic. Developers must learn they are here to serve gamers, not control them. I had my cat walk over the keyboard while the EULA was displaying, which fixed that problem for me. This is only free in a rudimentary sense... the developer has their hand out for a $6 USD "donation" for this as you're expected to buy some extra DLC from Steam... digital panhandling. Like the homeless guys who splash dirty water on your windscreen at the traffic lights. No thanks. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 15 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, even when the game is free, it's still not enough.
