What players say

Players describe Fishhead: Blueprint as a faithful SNES-era platformer made by a solo developer who has been working on the series since 1998. The four worlds plus a bonus world take about 5 hours to complete, and the atmosphere is calm and cozy even when the secret levels get tough. Some players note the controls feel unforgiving at first, but they adjust.
