Check out this game that's definitely About Fishing and not anything creepy or untoward at all

About Fishing, as you might've guessed, is actually about more than just fishing. Of course, there's fishing involved. You'll catch rare species of fish through a world teeming with submerged life, with each creature displaying individual behaviors as well as unique shapes and patterns. But just as every new fish friend is a delightfully distinct discovery, every NPC has their own patterns and personalities to display. Some are far more 'abyssal zone' than others.

In the reveal trailer aired during the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, we start off on an innocent fishing trip. Deck chairs out, fog rolling in, your companion offers you a curly fry. There's something off about the aesthetic, though. Maybe it's the greenish hue, or the extreme, low-poly environment and characters. I've not seen a game like this since the days of Diver's Dream for the original Playstation. I mean, it's a welcome throwback, and who needs anti-aliasing anyway? But this is all making me a little uncomfortable.
