During the recent Wholesome Direct, Wholesome Games Presents and India-based developer imissmyfriends.studio announced Fishbowl, a narrative pixel art game about memories, connection, grief, and self-discovery. A demo is available to play now via Steam.
Rhea Gupte, writer and director of Fishbowl, shared: “We are super excited to partner with Wholesome Games Presents! We want Fishbowl to resonate and make a difference with players everywhere, so it’s very special to be able to collaborate with a team that aligns with our vision.

Fishbowl is a heartfelt coming-of-age story about a young adult named Alo, who gets her first job in a new city, where she will have to live by herself while grieving her grandma’s death. Told over a month, you will unpack puzzles to rediscover childhood memories, video call loved ones, and work from home while balancing self-care and chores, to figure out life one day at a time.
