And as for the colors, I don't think anyone really knows, except for Tom Hall and maybe Adrian Carmack. A red or yellow Dopefish doesn't really seem "right" or something though, at least not compared to the it's Dopefishy green. [img]graemlins/dopefish.gif[/img]

Of course it doesn't seem "right". You've only had green for the last 10 years. If Dopefish was originally red, then you would be saying that about it being red.

I made these CGA Dopefish images a long time ago...

Also, the Dopefish Forever game has purple, blue, and gray Dopefishes in addition to green in multiplayer mode...
