IMPORTANT: The game looks and runs better on desktop. Download if possible. MacOS version hasn't been tested. For linux you need to run `chmod +x Upstream.x86_64` before running it.

A koi fish wants to swim upstream, but the journey seems impossible.

Evolve and grow as you gather upgrades, and persevere towards your final goal.

In the end, my Koi would probably have had enough motivation to get up Mount Everest. 😄 Very nice game!

i downloaded the game for Linux, but i don’t know how to start the game since i can’t find the filetype. please update the export to show the filetype.

update: very fun game. the web version works without flaws.

Oh you need to run chmod +x Upstream.x86_64

It's a native executable but I don't know if there's a way for linux to recognize it as such automatically. I'll update the description.

Thanks. My Linux didn’t recognize it automatically because of missing permissions, and because the filename didn’t end with .x86_64 this caused me the user to not recognize this file as an executable either.

If the filename ended in .x86_64 i would’ve tried to open it as an executable, and then i would’ve gotten the error message about missing permissions, and then i would’ve changed the permissions with the help of looking up Linux change permissions on the Internet Search Engine.

you should update the export so that the executable is actually named upstream.x86_64 instead of just Upstream.

Ohhh okay, that makes sense. It does end in .x86_64 now. It didn't a few days ago when I uploaded the first working version.
