Changelog: There were a lot of small changes in this one, but here are the highlights: 1. Performance is increased. I see a 2X framerate improvement on my computer, but ymmv. 2. We added 3 save slots and gave the save system one more look-over. Auto-saves are easier to access now, some players were getting confused and a couple overwrote a save file on accident. This should be much harder to do no...

We managed to hit 1,500 concurrent players (which is a bit crazy to me), and we are now past 250 Very Positive reviews. ːsteamhappyːI am continuing to wo...

Changelog: Fixed an issue from the last patch which causes some cards in the hand to be invisible under certain circumstances Multiple performance updates - frame rate is up to 3X lower :) Mainly targeted hatchery and fish scoring Notes: I'm hoping that this will be my last small patch after launch. I have a few areas of the game that I want to re-visit, both parts that were rushed in the final mo...

Changelog: Traits are now in 2 columns in the fish card. Fish cards grow on hover so they are easier to read. Fish card text is slightly larger as well. Misc. performance improvements and bug fixes (sorry, I forgot what I put in here...) The eye trait regression has been fixed. Notes: I have chased down some of the crash reports that players sent me, and have concluded that the "game won't start" ...

I noticed it right after pushing the patch, so it w...

The last hotfix caused eye color traits to disappear in some circumstances. This has been fixed. In other words, I made an eye patch XD. (I finally got some sleep now, so expect the quality of the jokes to drop going forwards) Note: Thank you everyone for the feedback this week. I'm going to look into fixing some of the UI issues next (especially font size on the fish cards). I also have a small e...

Changelog: I was able to confirm that one of the achievements still wasn't firing after the last patch. That is fixed now. I also added some extra checks when loading a save. Income indicators on the black hole are reporting correctly for very large sums. Note: Thank you everyone for reporting issues! I haven't heard any major reports since the last patch, so I believe we are back to where we shou...
