Hong Kong, Hong Kong – Sigma Game today is pleased to announce Fish Galaxy 1.1 for iOS, and update to their 3D, animated, arcade shooter and medal game set underwater. Expanding on other popular undersea shooters, the game includes: 42 different kinds of animated 3D fish, 6 different environments, points for capturing fish with a bubble gun, 11 different mini-games, 42 collectibles, 2 bosses, a jackpot game, combo shots for extra medals, experience-based levels of play, super shot capability, a built-in tutorial, and Game Center connectivity. Played in portrait orientation, fish are caught by firing a rising bubble, which expands and contracts as it rises. Some fish are too big to be caught in a bubble, but repeated bubble attacks make them susceptible to capture.
The graphics and 3D animation in Fish Galaxy are quite hypnotic, as if looking into an aquarium. Fish movement and coloring are quite realistic, and the developers have even included some just-for-fun creatures like a smiling turtle, goofy frogs, and an acrobatic bass. Eels and tadpoles swim in their distinctive style, and colorful fishes have moving, mouths, tails, and fins, and are able to swim in any direction and even do rolls. Adding to the illusion of a watery environment are gentle currents of sand and water caustics.
In comparison with other underwater shooters, there is a greater emphasis on sharp shooting in Fish Galaxy, where only one fish is caught per shot. Shooting three fish of the same kind in a row confers combination medals, and the mini-games, activated at reaching various scores, also feature one fish/one shot contests. When a bubble does capture a fish, the bubble bursts and the weight of the fish (usually 1 kg) is displayed, and an animated wave carries the number into the score window on the lower right. Each bubble-shot costs one medal.
