Coming Soon To Early Access

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

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to provide players with the best possible experience of pleasant and relaxing exploration and fishing. We are still working on deepening the gameplay and expanding some elements, but we want to hear players' opinions at this stage and polish the final version based on your feedback. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to develop the game in Early Access for several months, with the goal of releasing the finished game later in 2026.”

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

“We want to expand the game with side activities and implement capybaras, without which the game simply wouldn't be complete. We are also working on a character progression system and item statistics, which should expand and improve the gameplay experience. Furthermore, we are considering adding racing levels, a pollution system, and shrines related to the items you find.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game features all biomes and the main storyline. It can be fully completed, and every level can be freely explored. All fish and catchable objects are already available.”

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

“Yes, we plan a slight price increase upon the release of version 1.0, which will reflect the new features and content added to the game.”

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

“We will closely monitor player feedback on our Discord and the Steam forums. We believe this is the best way to fine-tune the game's balance and many minor details that can have a huge impact on the final gameplay experience. ”

About This Game

A well-deserved rest in the Eight Lakes Valley

Play as Doctor Shiberson - a Shiba Inu and a renowned cartographer with endless curiosity for the world.

You arrive in a picturesque valley to take walks and enjoy a peaceful vacation. However, you quickly discover that the locals need your help. Every new mark on the map leads to amazing discoveries and fairytale secrets, which are an everyday reality here.

Cast your line and upgrade your gear!

Sail your boat to the middle of the lake to face unique fish species.

  • Arcade fishing mechanics: Fishing is a fun, engaging mini-game where you carefully operate an active circle, balancing the line's strength and your control over the catch.

  • Gear matters: The stats of your rod, reel, and line are key—upgrade them to handle the wildest fish. Choosing the right bait can also make your task much easier.

  • Think like a fish: Some species only bite at specific times of the day or in certain spots. Watch the lake surface to find feeding areas and plan your trip for the right time.

Explore, fight, and craft

The land is an important part of your adventure - a perfect place for vacation walks and discoveries.

Crafting and gathering: Look for ingredients on trails and in caves to craft unique baits using recipes you get from the locals.

Stress-free combat: Explore caves and forest paths, defeating enemies in dynamic, friendly melee combat.

Visit Perchville: Trade your items, upgrade your boat at the Beaver's shop, and buy delicious meals from the Bear to restore your energy and health.

Restore harmony to the forgotten valley

Your main goal is to catch four legendary Golden Fish. Each of them knows the location of ancient artifacts hidden nearby.

Find all the pieces to rebuild the Temple of Obelisks and bring back the Fish King—the rightful ruler of all the lakes.

Care for nature

Clean water means more trophies! Fish out trash from the lakes and use the recycling machine to improve the environment and earn extra money for gear upgrades.

Cleaning up the environment directly builds your reputation in town. This will allow you to unlock new quests and discover the secrets of all the valley's residents.

Key Features:

  • Shiba. Doctor Shiba: Explore the world as a cute cartographer dog with endless curiosity.

  • 8 lakes, 15 caves, and endless fun: Explore a diverse world consisting of 8 lakes across 4 different biomes.

  • Advanced fishing: An arcade mini-game that depends on your gear stats and the time of day.

  • Fun combat and exploration: Casual combat, mysterious caves to explore, and engaging logic puzzles.

  • Progression system: Upgrade the stats of the Doctor, his boat, and his fishing rod as you progress in the game.

  • Fairytale art style: A unique 3D visual style with hand-drawn UI elements.

  • Eco-friendly mission: Collect trash and keep the peaceful vibe of the Eight Lakes Valley alive.
