This remains one of my favorite underrated games and I think it deserves a little attention.

Plus you guys might be interested in learning the LEVEL EDITOR and honing your level design skills. That was was kept me interested in it for so long...

So it's not really chose your own price... I thought I was gonna get a free game... There's a minimum. Why can't I just download it? Do I really have to order it? How come it's not up for download?

Some browsers do that all the time with odd files, I'm sure it won't. It's a precaution for any download from the Internet.

Re: Gish is Open Source!

 Yes, I know. Zombie thread. 8 year old game. Don't care, still love it! I hadn't played for a while but I came back again and I'm working on the new user-made levels that came with v1.6.

     What may interest you guys here at the GMG is that it has been open sourced! Who knows? I might try to mod it if I can learn how to compile and test it all. New enemies and some simple tweaks could do a lot. At the very least I could try an make a free to play Gish. But I will warn you it's probably only the Windows version and Gan may not talk to me for a while if I start messing with it a bunch. XD

PS: This used to be a great site, I think this is a fine review...

And believe it or not, you now have the option to UP THE TIMESCALE by 30% or so JUST like he suggests here! They added a Turbo Edition mode, unlocked by pressing "T" at the Main Menu in the full version. And I never play with it turned off. Finally, if you play Gish for long enough jumping is FUN and I exploit the added thrust from jumping of corners and bumps whenever possible.  Rock on, Gish! Rock on...
