Octodad: Dadliest Catch Review Thread
- Thread starter Panda Rin
- Start date
Dunno bout you, but as soon as I started the game up I got the controller achievement. Only played about 15 minutes or so but dang I'm gonna love this.
Nope, nothing. Played about 2hours and I think I'm near the end.
I would have imagined you would understand based on your username, but I guess not though.

Praise the lords for Enhanced Steam and its incorporation of the isthereanydeal.com thingamajig that informs you of the current low price.
Roughly €2 less on GOG and Humble Bundle. Which are gooder and humbler stores anyway.

I always thought this game looked light on the gameplay. Looks like some of the reviews suggest that is accurate.
Surprised to see they don't have the PS4 version day and date with PC. Seems like a missed opportunity.

This game is so delightfully silly.
Had a big goofy smile on my face throughout the opening theme song.

based on the responses here, i don't even think there will be a OT that lasts more than 3 pages until the PS4 version releases

I'm giving it a 10 out of 10, not because its the best game but because its fun, get somebody to join you in the pain and laugh about it!

lol, yep! Its a smaller game with a smaller price. very fun! wait for more of a sale if you like but i felt like it was worth it.

It's on steam for $11 so I'll probably get it and play this weekend. Anything that costs around the same price as a combo meal from a fast food joint is generally impulse buy territory for me.
Its cheaper at the moment on Humble Bundle store and GOG so you can save some money for a combo meal!
You are not alone. I can't understand it aswell.
its the same price for me on both steam and HB ($11.99)
Oh right maybe it's just the conversion rate made it cheaper then, forgot I bought it in dollars. My bad!
If you don't have Steam Wallet you want to get rid of Humble is still the better choice, the devs see a lot more of that money and you get a DRM-free version on top of the Steam key.

Another prime example why scores are ridiculous.

Isn't CVG the site that gave Aliens Colonial Marines 10/10?

Even if they were, that would only matter if it was the same reviewer.
Edit: Which again...everything is about numbers that have no actual, defined meaning across the board over a completely subjective matter.

Just bought it on Mac. I don't have a controller to play it with, but I'm still really looking forward to playing it for the laughs.
Cheers, everybody!

Beat it.
The fun I had was well worth the price I paid.

Any idea when this comes out on the PSN? I'm really looking forward to a lighter hearted, funny game for change of pace duites.

We were sorta skipped on our review (which is also on Metacritic).

This game looks really fun. I know it's worth it but I'll definitely get it next Steam sale!

What are the impressions of the KB/M controls?
I personally think they're fine. The game is just as difficult to control with a KB/M or a controller.

Wow it seems people are very polar on this game.
Means I'll love it most likely.

I finished it in just over 2 hours in and enjoyed it. I liked the interaction between Octodad and his family, just so ridiculous. The look on Octodad's quivering face when they go to the aquarium was worth the price alone.
I completed it earlier today, took me somewhere between 2 and 3 hours depending on which time you want to go with (2 hours on in game timer, 3 on steam, I'd say the former is more accurate). I did really enjoy it though. There's a few tedious bits, mostly to do with precision platform crossing and stealth, however the charm, humour and the rest of the game play easily makes up for it. I don't regret what I spent on it.

The demo was stupidly fun, although I could see the appeal wearing thin pretty quick it's evidently a short game and priced to match so I'm glad to see it get some love.
Video Games Awesome are doing a 4 player co-op stream right now with the developers in their chat room. They will only be in the shows member chat though, not the twitch chat.
Also cosplay, incredible cosplay.

I love it but I can only take it in small bites. I find that anymore than 2 areas and I start stressing out.
I would say its not really fun to play but fun to watch.
