Description
Reverse Fishing is a rage game about patience and jumping you venture your way back to the ocean. Reverse Fishing features 3 difficulty modes, the map layout is the same on each however higher difficulty means fewer checkpoints. There are 5 levels to complete while collecting highly fashionable cosmetics!
My goal was to make this game easier compared to the average rage game as I feel many of them become practically unbeatable for the average person, I want people to be able to beat this game you just might get a bit frustrated doing so!
This is my first ever game so I really hope you enjoy!

User Reviews
I met the creator of this game at a Runescape convention years ago, we spoke together, had a great time, but as the day ended, we had to go our separate ways...
But before we did, he leaned in to my ear, and whispered to me "I want to make a game about a fish, flopping its way back to the ocean" and disappeared into the night.
At first, I was sceptical, a game about a fish? flopping back to the ocean? such a thing... was unheard of... I moved on with my life, Forgetting the mysterious stranger I had met that day...
Now its 2025, nearly a decade later, I load up my steam and I see it... Reverse Fishing... created by none other than "Doug" himself, the man I met all those years ago, A tear forms in my eye as I smile, I wipe it away and just softly spoke "The madman actually did it..." and I purchased the game, Seeing his vision come to life... I suck at it but it's pretty cool.
I think if I fall off a porta-potty one more time I'm going to cry. Very fun game, I really like the traffic cone hat! If you like rage parkour games with a simple objective this is a great game for you!
I got to to beta test this game, and I have to say the final version is an absolute blast! I thoroughly enjoyed the platforming and love all the little hats I can get. Playing this in a call trying to race the other community members was super fun. Great quality for a first time game!
The jumping mechanics are like a huge gamble you can RIG if you're skilled enough. A great game for those unwilling to accept defeat or just are into guesstimating launch angles.
