What’s New Version 1.0.37
Fix for checkpoint saving hitch that affected speed running.
Description
Octodad: Dadliest Catch is a game about destruction, deception, and fatherhood. The player controls Octodad, a dapper octopus masquerading as a human, as he goes about his life. Octodad's existence is a constant struggle, as he must master mundane tasks with his unwieldy boneless tentacles while simultaneously keeping his cephalopodan nature a secret from his human family.
In this sequel to the splash hit Octodad, our cephaloprotagonist has gotten himself in a bind between his wife’s mounting mistrust, and a disastrous trip to the local aquarium! Are you dad enough to control the titular octopus father as he strives to hide his nautical nature from his family while keeping his tangled tentacles intact?

BRO ARE YOU STALKING ME?
Ok, so…how do I explain this? My husband is an octopus, and I think you got the idea from me and my significant other. Which is funny, because I don’t think I have ever met a game developer in my entire 76 year old life. So, what I’m trying to say is, I love this game, but I would appreciate it if you stopped stalking me.
With love,
Martha

Octodad: it’s so funny and lovely
It’s so funny because when you try to grab stuff your arm is like it’s a balloon’s from the car dealership and it’s so beautiful because your family loves you no matter what you are but the chef thinks you’re trying to hurt people but you’re not you try to be normal and it doesn’t matter what you are you be you 😙😝

It made me cry
The problem of this game is, I don’t know how to raise my hand to do things and then when I play the game I’m on this level, but I can’t even play the games because you’re too hard. They’re too hard because when I play, I can’t even raise my hand and the game I used to be easy. I don’t know how to raise my hand so it makes it money. I used the money to get this game and I can’t even raise my hand like I can’t play none of the games basketball or anything because it won’t let me raise my hand not even if I try I don’t know how to put it up or put it down. Never works for me and I had every sing

Octodad: The Masterpiece
Starting the game, we’re introduced to Father “Octodad” Octopus seeming very unprofessional on his wedding day. From the beginning, you see Octodad journey through the church, slipping on banana peels and trying not to knock down vases. This shows how Octodad tries to live his life, and he succeeds, but sometimes risks his happiness because of how hard it is to be an octopus. He found a woman named Scarlet who can give him purpose, so he marries her, but there is no best man that has the ring. This adds a mystery aspect on Octodad’s past. Was his family unsupportive of him wanting to make some

Please help!
I was 80% though and so close to getting the ending after two weeks and it crashed in the loading screen and deleted my save! Then I tried again and got to the store and I decided to see if my achievements were there and it froze and when i went back on it it deleted again!?! I can’t do this game anymore if my save will be gone every hour, please fix the servers so I can play and not lose my weeks of progress, also can you make the new game button somewhere where you won’t click on it by accident and then lose your save. R.I.p 1st save file, but please make the servers work again so I can play

Octodad Suggestions
Hello there I am a H U G E fan of this game. It is hilarious and cool. Being and octopus who pretends to be a human being ain’t easy, but it’s fun and challenging enough to wanna play more. It’s very confusing sometimes, with all the puzzles and games you have to complete- especially when you have a curious wife and two kids who go everywhere. From beginning to end, I was hooked, especially with the good bait :) (excuse the pun). I think you should do what I’m about to say: MAKE A SHOW. Just the sequence itself, it’s the best part. You have your own theme song- what are you missing? You should

Very awesome game, needs more levels, and unlock locked level
There is a locked level in freeplay, I hope you unlock it, also you need to add more levels, maybe make it so u can use both of your hands. That’s pretty much it, other than that the game deserves a 5 star, I would recommend buying this game, the ratings may seem not that good but the game is absolutely good, and it has a wholesome ending.

Octodad one of the greatest games
So I just got this game it is amazing I beat it already but it is very good I am not one of those fake bots if you think that but this game deserves 5 stars but there should be more or a Octodad two that would be great I know there is nothin for it to talk about next but you guys/creators made a masterpiece of a game.

this game is 100 percent one of the best games
i have ever played the storyline is great and the gameplay is great playing as this octodad has been so much fun but once you finish the whole game and side games there isn’t much to do besides restart unless that was the intentions of making the game for the soul purpose of having it within the storyline i would like to request that you guys could make more i really like this game and I would love to play more

Make more
Can you please make more because when I was done with it I cried when I was done and I got it the same day I won but I just felt too short so maybe add whatever you want they’ll make the game more interesting and more bad guys and maybe you get to control in the water but I say you could probably make more

Eh
This is an obviously older game, it haven't been updated in 2 years. But i still love it, I had to delete it but i just got it back, I completed home sweet home and it didn't let me unlock the grocery store, I had to do it again before that because it teleported me to the aquarium stage.

Nice But Frustrating
I like it but it’s very hard to use on IPads can u like add maybe instead of 7 prizes or something it’s like 2 or 3? Because it’s very frustrating to beat the aquarium level

Good, kicks you out after playing for a while
I absolutely LOVE this game.
The game controls are a bit difficult at the
beginning because you have to do tasks.
HOWEVER…
As I was playing (it was so fun) as soon as I got to the flashback ocean ship scene I was playing a bit and from there it would NOT stop kicking me off!?
I kept pressing continue and it was loading.. than it kicks me off the game. It will not load for me, I just got it today. Please fix this glitch. Other than that, I love your game! Keep up the good work.
