[DryvBy]

Poor Guile

 

[G-Fex]

good luck with that

 

[CountAntonius]

Should have been beta fish.

 

[zruben]

hahaha, This is awesome. I wish I could bet some real money on this.

 

[Kade]

This is more entertaining to watch than FishPlaysPokemon. At least for me.

 

[balohna]

Got a condom ad. Aren't they being a bit optimistic targeting this audience?

 

[ComputerMKII]

Isn't 'fish' the plural form of fish?

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

At least this is slightly more interesting then FishPlaysPokemon.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

hahaha, This is awesome. I wish I could bet some real money on this.

The streamer behind this could always try to collaborate with saltybets!

 

[zma1013]

Ken making the comeback!

NM, he loses.

 

[2San]

This needs a betting system to truly shine.

 

[Dreavus]

This is kind of like saltybet, but less exciting.

Is this the same streamer who tried fish plays pokemon or someone else?

 

[FalsettoVibe]

LOL!

How does this work? Does someone just looks at the fish and plays out their actions?

 

[GrayFoxPL]

These fish are turtles.

Umm...I-I'm ESL. Sorry. I messed up.

 

[ThatsMytrunks]

Holy shit that last match was so clutch.

 

[hateradio]

But these sweetwater fish.

 

[dragonlife]

This is great

Guile, get #rekt

 

[Slowdive]

For fish that last round was really close haha.

 

[sappyday]

Fucking Aquarius/Ken

 

[zigg]

Amazing.

 

[Stoof]

Those ducks

 

[Banana Aeon]

This is what Twitch watches.

 

[JordanN]

That was intense.

From the site.

Similarly to FishPlaysPokemon, I have virtually segmented my fish tank into 9 parts (3 by 3).

Depending on which part of the tank a fish is in, it will send a different key press to the game. Aquarius sends key presses for Player 1, and Robert the Bruce sends key presses for Player 2.

As for the actual code used for color detection and key sending, I do all of it using AutoIt and some shoddy code I cooked up over the course of a few days.

Points of Interest:
There is a tiny delay between one player pressing their key and the other one. To compensate, a player is chosen at random each loop to be the first to press their key, so it balances out.
A fish can send multiple key presses at the same time if it is in multiple screen regions when the check is made.
Movement with the up/down/left/right arrows is evaluated first, and then the other key presses are sent. This allows for more combos to potentially happen (direction press + punch to throw).
Key presses in menus are handled slightly differently to ensure that the game continues smoothly.

 

[cheststrongwell]

Much better than the Pokemon one and still dumb as fuck.

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

Should have been beta fish.

Only if it was dating sim.

 

[Dreavus]

I think he should put in some special move macros beyond just throw.

 

[jediyoshi]

aquarius with the throws, i'm calling shenanigans

 

[Sn4ke_911]

 

[lazygecko]

This is way more exciting than I anticipated


... and I cannot unhear how awfully out of tune Balrog's music is in the SNES version.

 

[Dark Phoenix]

That stun was godlike. Dhalsim too strong.

 

[Kade]

I'm going to put this in the OP, Snake9/11.

 

[IAmtheFMan]

Dhalsim fish = OP.

 

[FinKL]

Everyday I turn on the internet and think I've seen it all...
Nope

 

[morpix]

Aquarius is my man. 100000 SaltyBux.

 

[chugen]

dem odds

 

[dallow_bg]

What a throw!

 

[dragonlife]

Shimomura goodness. Still sounds great to this day <3

 

[FunBoy]

Aqua so good cant be beaten right now. Those throws!

 

[Pepboy]

Watched a 3 round match, surprisingly short and pretty intense at points. I think this will have much longer legs than FishPlaysPokemon, as that's going to be boring for many after 20 minutes of running back and forth. Can easily change characters or versions if it gets stale.

 

[dragonlife]

Robert fucking sucks.

 

[Storm Kyleis]

This is beautiful.

Aquarius for EVO 2015.

 

[Rentahamster]

Hahahaha

 

[Cameron122]

but can they remember the super moves?

 

[Rentahamster]

Godlike footsies right now.
