A downloadable game for Windows

Help the humble diver Dunk after falling into the ocean... and from the sky? Explore the world of Fishbound and collect magic fish to transport Dunk back to their boat. On the way, meet a strange species that Dunk does not understand and can not converse with and (re-)discover abilities that will help you on your way. Wait... could Dunk do that all this time?! Wonder where else this might prove useful. Fishbound is a 2D Top-Down Fishventure game, where your abilities are a secret. Explore and find out what Dunk is capable of and bring him back to their boat!

A controller is required for this experience.
D-PAD -> Move

B/Circle/A -> Interact (Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo)

All other controls remain a secret, so good luck figuring them out!

This game was made as part of the 2026 Retro Game Jam by Spelkollektivet, with the target hardware being the SNES and the theme "Secrets".
