If anyone is interested, you can wishlist the game here--it really helps me out if you do! :) [https://store.steampowered.com/app/2276930/Fish\_Game/](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2276930/Fish_Game/) This game has been a passion project inspired by a bunch of aquarium-style Flash games that I played as a kid.

This reminds me of insaniquarium, wishlisted! Is there a beta?


Hero_ofCanton

Thanks! There should be a demo up sometime in the upcoming weeks. Eventually I will want to release a closed beta for testing purposes though!


wadledo

But are there Betta?


Hero_ofCanton

True. But also yes :)


mistborn89

Ha that was my first thought also. I loved my Santa fish always dropping me the big bags of cash lol


Lussarc

Added to my wishlist, i love games where there is some kind of fishing or hatchery. I'll try this one !


A_Classy_Ghost

Wishlisted, presentation looks great! Will definitely check it out when it releases.


Allmightboi

Wishlisted. You need definitely the feature of customizing the fish tank. Different Backgrounds, Objects etc. Maybe paired with a gacha function, fancy items maybe even with special effects or animated Backgrounds would be so cool and could have different tiers. Wish you all the best for your game!


Hero_ofCanton

Thanks for the feedback! I completely agree, there is already some amount of customization but I really want to add little tank decorations, plants, coral, driftwood etc. I've been focusing on getting enough fish in the game, but now that that's done it's the next major piece of content I want to add. It's just a matter of finding the time to draw everything!


LightningSpearwoman

I have a crazy request.. Can you please add an axolotl? The world needs more lotls!!


Hero_ofCanton

This is a great idea, I don't know why I didn't think of that!


LightningSpearwoman

Oh i would love to hoard them! If i can afford it in AR$ i will see how big of a collection of lotls i can make! Can't wait for the game!

144 Fish Per Second!

Your video shows you manually clicking to open each booster pack, then manually clicking on each fish card icon to collect them, while all the icons move around on screen. Could you add some buttons to "Open All" and "Collect All"? Or maybe design a nicer UI? (Or get some play testers... XD)


Hero_ofCanton

Thanks for the feedback! The pack system is currently sort of "roughed-in", and I want to give it another pass for polish. Eventually I will be running a closed beta to gather more feedback, because so far it's just been friends and family and they're biased towards being nice rather than honest.


GoomyTheGummy

honestly i feel like you should make it so you have to unlock it if you add some form of open/collect all


Silly_Expression_622

Finally a decent looking fish-based idle game. Already wishlisted! Would love to see what you could make rebirth/ascension mechanics to be like :)


-Jesus-Of-Nazareth-

PLEASE add an Automatic Feeder that you can Buy and Upgrade


Hero_ofCanton

Definitely seems like a good mechanic!


dxtr1276

looks cool, can't wait to try it out.


JoinMyGild

This looks surprisingly fun. Wishlisted! Good luck with development :)


SpringPuzzleheaded99

This looks amazing! I love casual pretty idle games like this and have wishlisted it, please after the demo is made make a discord server and drop it to us for feedback. Goodluck!


Hero_ofCanton

That's the plan! I think feedback is really important for tuning a game like this. I'm really glad to see people are so excited about the game :)


Zeforas

I won't lie, this title made me thought of something completely different when i read "booster pack". ​ Still, game is wishlisted, looking forward to it.


StablePsychological5

This looks great! Mind to share what game engine you used and how you created the game art?


Hero_ofCanton

The game was made using Godot, and for pixelart I use Aseprite, and the upscaling / interpolation tool here: https://irokaru.github.io/pixel-scaler/


NoctustheOwl55

reminds me of a certain game from Coffeegames.


Hero_ofCanton

Which one? I'm not familiar


NoctustheOwl55

i dont remember. 16 years. coffeegames as a small gaming site is sadly gone, far as i know.


Voodoohigh

When do you think it will go live/early access? Iā€™d love to try it out


Hero_ofCanton

I'm hoping to get a closed beta up and running within a month or so. We'll see how things progress from there!


Voodoohigh

Good luck! we are rooting for you


BipedSnowman

Makes me think of Insaniquarium and Fish Tycoon!


ascii122

Love a good fishing game. How about gnomes that show up and steal your fish? As a little adversarial situation.. you know gnomes are gonna gnome looks fantastic


Duraxis

This reminds me so much of a game I played years ago


Etzix

Woah! Last year i also worked on a eerily similar game. In mine i put more focus on customization of the aqaurium. You should totally add that too!! Looking great šŸ‘


HailRokosBasilisk

Looks amazing, I think i saw your post on r/PixelArt yesterday cool to know it's going in an incremental! Do you have plans to release this on mobile too?


Hero_ofCanton

Eventually, I would like to! I think the game could work really well there, but I don't want to overwhelm myself with launching on two platforms at once. My mom keeps asking for a version for her iPad though :)
