Classic metroidvania

Robot Wants FishyIndependent web remaster

Master bombs, underwater harpoons, and new abilities to reach Fishy in Mike Hommel's classic metroidvania.

Created by Mike Hommel of Hamumu Games in 2010. This is an independent web remaster.

The adventure

Explore.
Adapt. Reach Fishy.

Robot Wants Fishy is the hardest and most hardcore game in the series. Its six interconnected levels each put different demands on Robot’s abilities and your skills as a player. From dry caverns to submerged passages, reaching Fishy takes the right upgrades, precise movement, and a willingness to try again.

The route to Fishy winds through hostile machines, strange creatures, hidden Chronox Shards, and memorable bosses. Every recovered ability changes how the world can be crossed—and brings Robot closer to the next rescue.

01

Master land and water

Find Rustproofing to survive underwater, then use the Autoharpoon to fight beneath the surface.

02

Build a new arsenal

Unlock bombs, shields, teleportation, movement upgrades, and specialized tools that open new routes through the world.

03

Reach Fishy

Repair ancient systems, overcome dangerous chambers and bosses, and complete Robot's third rescue mission.

Robot Wants Fishy controls and tips

What are the controls?

Use Left and Right to move, Up, Z, or Y to jump, X for the current action, and P to pause. The available actions depend on your upgrades and whether Robot is on land or underwater. Touch controls are also available on phones and tablets.

How do I explore underwater?

Find Rustproofing before entering water. The Autoharpoon then gives Robot a way to fight underwater. Revisit submerged routes as you recover the tools needed to explore them.

How is Fishy different from Puppy?

Robot Wants Puppy revolves around Kitty-powered abilities. Fishy combines land and water exploration with bombs, underwater harpoons, shields, and teleportation across six connected levels.

Where should I start the series?

Begin with Robot Wants Kitty, then Robot Wants Puppy, before tackling Fishy’s more demanding routes. Each adventure has its own map and upgrades.
