Fishbowl: Trailer deep dive 💜

[p]Hi everyone! 👋🏾[/p][p][/p][p]2026 is here and we are one month in already?!? Fishbowl’s release day is coming closer and closer. AAHHHH!!! [/p][p][/p][p]We have both thrown ourselves into our to-do lists and playtests and solving bugs and noting improvements and making the game as much of itself as we can possibly make it. We thought it might be fun to take you all through the latest trailer of Fishbowl. We know many of you spotted some interesting and unexpected things in there![/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]First up! The trailer opens with a little glow around Alo. If you have played the demo, you know exactly what this leads to. For those who haven’t, we won’t spoil it for you 🙂[/p][p][/p][p]We then give you a quick glimpse into Alo’s dream world. A dark part of Alo’s mind which holds suppressed events, overwhelming thoughts and complex feelings all tumbling out of her in her sleep.  [/p][p][/p][p]Next up, you move through Alo’s memories from when she was little. You get to see some of her friends, her grandma’s tea shop and the nearby park she’d play in.[/p][p][/p][p]The trailer then shifts to present time where Alo gets a call from her Mum while travelling back home from work in an autorickshaw. [/p][p][/p][p]You then see Alo doing home and self care tasks around her new home. The little bar you see on top is her moodmeter. It shifts up and down as per the things Alo does in her home. Since this trailer was released, we’ve reworked the design of the moodmeter and are MUCH happier with it now. You will get to see it soon ^_^[/p][p][/p][p]You then see some movers and packers keep a whole lot of packages all over Alo’s home and you also see her unpacking some of them by solving a sliding style puzzle. Every puzzle that you unpack will unlock a memory and help you piece together bits and pieces of Alo’s story. [/p][p] [/p][p]We give you a peek into Alo’s work from home job as a video editor. There are a bunch of new colleagues for you to get to know and work with.  [/p][p] [/p][p]At the end of our trailer, Alo goes to bed after a long day. [/p][p] [/p][p]Hope you all enjoyed going through this trailer with us! If this is the first time you’ve seen our game, welcome! If you’ve been rooting for us for a long time, we are beyond grateful! If you like what you see, we want to remind you to wishlist Fishbowl. [/p][p][/p][p]Now back to our desks![/p][p] [/p][p]Love,[/p][p]Rhea & Prateek[/p][p]💜 imissmyfriends.studio[/p][p]
