I wanna be the Fish – lily edition.

I am not a big of original I wanna be the Fish, and even less fan of this lily's attempt of making similar avoidance.

Endurance tries its best – uses different attacks, sprites, visuals effects, unexpected twists and etc. You can even see original traits. But everything feels so cheap that it does not bring good emotions.

Firstly, terrible balance – some attacks are way too slow and does not pace with music. Other attacks feels a little bit hard for reading. And then there are these 2 attacks -[url]https://youtu.be/iSKOPH7RLak?t=28[/url] (sucking-in and circle-like thingy) – which happen way too sudden, in my opinion, and can be a little bit confusing for dodging. I am also unsure about that circle. You kind of have to jump in it. I am not sure can it give walls or no, or you can dodge in the corner freely.

Secondly, I am totally not a fan of some visual effects. It would be OK if it had used original I wanna be the Fish visuals from the beginning to the end. But lily decided, that unexpectedly changing visuals would be a good idea. And that was a mistake, in my opinion, because I Wanna Kill The Kamilia 3 tileset and grid totally look unfitting for this avoidance. Moreover, why avoidance suddenly change screen's resolution to full screen? It looks weird and makes dodging actually harder. Too much of trial and error.

Originally, I beat this avoidance because it was in FSR avoidance gold category, but later on was relocated to the silver. And it was a wise decision. Endurance is not very hard. It requires some reading skills and attentive playing, but it is not too bad.

Quality, on the other hand, could be better. I had some fun, but overall I did not have any emotions about this avoidance, to be honest. It feels a little bit annoying, I guess. Besides this avoidance is easily forgettable. It just exists.

Maybe if your biggest dream is to clear I wanna be the Fish, then maybe this fangame going to motivate you to clear original game. Although you can just jump into I wanna be the Fish. I doubt that this game is going to be useful for a real clear of Ao's game.

Sorry, lily, but I was not satisfied from your game.

Wouldn't recommend.

Have you ever wanted to play I Wanna Be The Fish but found it too difficult? Not to worry, here we have an easier remake of that game made by Lilly, apparently made directly for Blue himself. There's more to the game than just being easier though, since it uses a new song ("lake Blizzard" by Sawawa), and the attacks themselves are altered to fit with the song. Some attacks don't exactly benefit from this (like the attack with the bullets rotating around the center, or the sinewave orbs just being a standstill attack in the second half), but the fight as a whole is still fun. Maybe I'm just saying this as a better player and that's affecting my opinion, but still, at least all the unfair parts are directly at the beginning, so you don't have to wait a long time to reach them and then die to them. Oh, and we can't talk about this game without mentioning the fullscreen attack. It's kind of hard to get used to at first, but after that, it is pretty cool. So yeah, this is a good beginner alternative to Fish, would recommend if you think you can handle it compared to that game.

The game itself is literally just luck because the first time I beat this it took shorter than my second
Most the attacks are heavy and annoying. It was fun at first but now I hate it.
