Description
I wonder how many others remember this guy. Here's a basic introduction of him.For those of you who don't know him, Fin Fin is a virtual creature from the 1996 computer game "Fin Fin on Teo the Magic Planet". He is a small, highly playful creature with characteristics from both birds and dolphins, and your objective is to earn his trust and befriend him. Like the name says, Fin Fin lives on Teo, a faraway planet which resembles Earth in atmosphere and temperature but contains a completely different selection of both flora and fauna, which you get to explore as you follow Fin Fin through his daily activities. The more he trusts you, the more often he will open up and respond to your attempts to communicate with him. He also has a beautiful voice, with which he might sing to you if your friendship has become strong enough.
The "rocks" in this drawing, whose background is a map well-known to all Fin Fin fans, each represent an area of his territory which you are able to visit and observe him at, though some versions of the game do not include certain locations. (My version did not include the Nest, and in that case it will appear as a tiny, black pebble.) The Lemo Valley and Rem River Bank are not shown here, but usually they form a hexagon on the map.
I got really attached to this guy :3 Beats any "Petz"-game for sure. This drawing is made simply out of my own memory and experiences with him and is just a basic summary. Hope some of you old fans out there will recognize him ^^

It's so rare to come across anyone who knew of Fin Fin, gosh, this is
so nostalgic. I used to play that game all the time back when I was a little
kid.

I agree, this game was really precious to me when I used to play it, and Fin Fin still is ^^

Hey there! I'm really happy to see a fan of many
things that really need more love too. Like I see you
even like Oddworld. I really loved that series as a kid
too! Oh man *A*

*Nods* Yess, Oddworld is also from my childhood and has stuck with me all the way up till now ^^ Even now, I feel both of them are of great quality and should not be forgotten just like that :3

They are, especially Fin Fin because not only is it
rare for someone to know about it, but it was ahead
of it's time.

It absolutely was! Even now it's a game with so high quality in its structure that it overgoes several other, more "modern" games :3 And the universe in it has such potential! I really wish they'd continue with it somehow v.v

I do too, it would have been really nice if they could even at
least port it to newer systems so more people can play it.
