Catch of The Day
Catch fish in swarming schools while dodging a hunting shark.
About Catch of The Day
Catch of The Day drops you among swarming schools of fish with a shark on your trail. You go after the fish as they move in flocks, and each run is a race to catch as many as you can before the predator catches you.
It started as a test of how boids perform in Three.js. Boids are the flocking behavior in which each fish steers by its neighbors, and the creator turned that experiment into a game with Claude Code. Vibe Jam 2026 ranked it 305th of 945.
Boids give the schools a fluid, natural motion, and the chase depends on reading it. You watch how the groups bend and scatter around you and around the shark, dodging the hunter while you line up the next catch.
