March 3rd 2026 - Finland - With this update, fish for a new breed, complete missions to earn money and spend it in the shop to get more lures, accessories and gear. It also includes a big map with new catch history marks, helping you to remember your best fishing spots.
Next to the new features, we’ve also included keybindings and fixed a ton of bugs!
The project is still in its early stages of development. Development is being kept open from the start, with playable builds already available through early playtesting. Player feedback is actively used to shape mechanics and systems while they are still flexible.
Key Features
- Fishing gameplay is based on reading conditions and making choices
- Learning fish behavior is central to success
- Different fish species behave differently and prefer different lures and locations
- Weather conditions affect fish activity and behavior
- Time of day matters and changes how fish respond
- Calm pacing with no reliance on fast reflexes or constant action
- Open development with early playtests and active player feedback
