Description

This is an updated beta version of "Pierre and the Fish", a short mini-game that I made for the "One Week One Button 2" competition. This version has a few small bugs fixed over the competition version:

changes made from competition version
-------------------------------------
- added [F3] button to toggle music on/off
- added [PAUSE] button to pause game when running
- added support for 16 bit graphics modes
- fixed problem with window not closing when clicking on the window button
- added icon to the game
- fixed an issue with the fish sprites
- softened the fishie collection sounds
- fixed some minor issues with the windowing system

I am interested in any feedback on your impressions of this game. While I'm only going to be making small changes to "Pierre and the Fish" over the next week before I move on to my next project, any suggestions for improvement will be welcome (as they will help for my next game!).

Have fun dodging the fish!
