About the Game

Reminiscent of early arcade games, Aquarius is a randomly generated, wave-based combat game where you harpoon fish, collect treasure, and compete for the high score! Although it seems easy at the start, Aquarius can become surprisingly challenging. Stay alert - if you lose, you'll be sent back to the start of the previous level!
