Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The core game loop might be fairly enjoyable already! And I'd be grateful for feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I expect the game to be in Early Access for several years, depending on the reception and my time budget.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“More content, more creative options, and I have tons of ideas for the community features, like easter egg hunting in other player's aquariums (find the fish!). I would like to build a small community within the game where you can come over once in a while, watch other players' creations, spread love, shoot fish.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Working currently is the basic game loop of photo challenges, unlocking items and aquarium editing, along with Steam cloud and the option to visit other players.
Content added so far: 20+ fishes, 30+ plants, 100+ rocks, wood and deco items”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“I plan to gradually increase the price while I add more content. I expect the price to at least double when out of Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I am grateful for feedback and suggestions! Especially when playing with your kids, they seem to enjoy this alot and I try to get any frustration out of the way. Depending on the player feedback I can put more time on the community side, or fish AI, or aquascaping.”
