The brutish “X curio is like Y behemoth” logic of mass entertainment nooze requires me to associate Selkie Harbour’s The Anglerfish Project withStarfield. They do form a pleasant contrast, in fairness. Both are space games but one doesn’t have a fishing mechanic, whereas the other isallfishing mechanic. One is about visiting strange new worlds, establishing outposts and shooting or romancing the heck out of the locals, while the other maroons you on a single asteroid. The Anglerfish Project deserves better than to serve only as a counterpoint for the Bethesda colossus, however - it’s a sweet and tidy stargaze ‘em up with a dry sense of humour, and you candownload it for free on Itch.io.
