Fish in Sunlight

A game for two players about cherishing the mundane and the uneventful, inspired by the film Paterson (2016). In it you will follow one character for a week of their life in which nothing much happens, but pay a lot of attention to what does.

• Talk to a friend about the weather!
• Watch some birds outside the window!
• Avoid catastrophe and triumph alike!

Downloads also include a spreadsheet that can be used for playing the game remotely - just open it in a sharing site (such as Google Sheets), and share the link with your friend.
