Description
Who's that man with the three piece suit?
Makin' a doll with the log and fruit
Who's that man with eight strong legs?
Try to make me breakfast but he broke my eggs
Octodaaaaaad - nobody suspects a thing
Octodaaaaaad - he's got a good thing going
Who's that man with the hard, hard beak?
Three feet tall with a soft physique.
How's a man like that ma feel?
Running for his life from a moray feel.
Octodaaaaaad - nobody suspects a thing
Octodaaaaaad - he's got a good thing going
I've seen the game 'Octodad: Dadliest Catch' pop-up again for some reason, which reminded me to draw something of a tribute. Generally speaking, I do want to give some attention to the underrated, underappreciated pieces of media while still involving myself with larger, more popular franchises. Do expect to see more of these kinds of artwork on this account.
Frustrating as it looks to play with his wobbly limb game mechanics, I think 'Octodad' is an example of a well-constructed, cartoonish game that takes a seemingly ridiculous concept, and makes it funny and surprisingly heartwarming. I did enjoy Octodad's slapstick in his constant, daily difficulties that an anthropomorphic octopus would rightly have in attempting to complete everyday, domestic activities while 'hiding' his identity from everyone.
What I find so charming about Octodad himself is how genuinely loving he is: he would sacrifice and do anything to make his children (Stacy, his overly excited and imaginative daughter, and Tommy, his cocky and adventurous son) and wife (Scarlet, warm and curious) happy, and proclaims a 'love for all humanity' awwww.
Didn't think I would ever find such a sweet octopus character!

This is awesome! Very fitting tribute. Was thinking about doing a tribute myself a while ago, after playing the game, but never got round to it.
It's definitely one of the more original games I've played in my years of gaming. If you enjoyed this, then I highly recommend, 'Manuel Samuel'. It's similar in a lot of ways, and yet different in a lot of ways.
You all may of already heard/played it, but if not, then this is a little indie darling ya'll should check out

Octodad is a franchise I've wanted to check out myself, as it looks pretty charming and hilarious, and I think you did it justice with your drawing here.

Thank you very much, I worked hard to emulate the closeness of the Octodad family. 'Octodad: Dadliest Catch' can be found on Steam and the PS4 when you want to try it.
