NEW - Wounds and bleeding Just a work-in-progress visual effects that should enhance the gameplay up a bit. Wounds themselves heal / disappear after a while being at full health points. The wounds are visible only on Graphics Quality "Good" and above.
Wiggling All fish now wiggle a bit after landing a bite. Aside of the damage it now also disorientates and your prey, giving it less chance to escape.
Sprint Sprint stamina usage is now much more important for hunting and surviving. Sprinting consumes stamina faster, but at the same time gives a greater speed boost.
AI Artificial intelligence has been modified just to fit all of the changes, in other words AI from now has better reaction times and overall is less likely to get stuck.
Regeneration
Fish, crabs etc. no longer regenerate health after taking damage for 2 seconds.
Stamina regeneration is now reduced the more damaged the fish is.
Eating update
As we are steadily moving towards our goal of implementing a fun herbivore gameplay, several changes have been made to eating:
Coral food such as starfish now have to be destroyed into pieces in order to eat it as a small fish. Fruits and shrimps can still be devoured instantly.
Medium and large sized fish now leave one or more of some new gigantic chunks of meat, that need to be chewed down into smaller pieces to eat them.
Gaining experience and Coins update
We have greatly reduced ( -65% ) the experience required to level up for small fish and increased it a bit for large fish ( +10% ). Additionally in the Normal difficulty fish drop +25% more experience in meat, this bonus experience becomes +50% in Hard difficulty .
Coins are now easier to obtain, as eating meat now gives one additional coin.
Crab madness returns as a full mode
Originally we hacked together this mode for the aprils fools event, but since the community liked it so much we’ll be improving it gradually so that it can be a full mode and it will be permanently available.
First set of changes:
Crabs can now jump
Crabs can now move sideways
Crabs have been given new animations
For players that permanently unlocked the crab madness mode during april fool’s prior to this update, we are sorry for going back on our word to bring the mode back only during april fool’s and we'll be rewarding you with a special achievement to mark your victory against the evil crab king.

Jump in, swim and feed on everything that's in it!
Or just get eaten by everything like it usually happens...
Difficulty changes
What was previously the "Hard" difficulty is now called "Normal" and a new harder difficulty has been added. This new difficulty takes the place of "Hard" and will be used for the upcoming challenges and achievements.
Just to make it clear - Easy difficulty remains unchanged.
New AI group movement
Piranhas and trouts are the first fish to perform basic schooling. They will swim and react to events as one entity.
2016 April Crab madness mode closed.
The mode is no longer available, unless you have previously defeated the evil king crab and taken his scepter. In that case you can still play it whenever you want to.

Hi fish friends, have you enjoyed swimming up to now? Because we are adding new waters to do just that in Feed and Grow.
River map
Yes, the River map is just about a week away from being released, and we thought that you might want to see how it looks like.
Environment
The map will have more land than water overall. You will encounter one harmless and one deadly waterfall in between some super-fun super-fast momentum-building currents that are super-annoying and super-exhausting to swim against, so better watch out to not get sucked down.
Creatures
On top of the dangerous waters keep an eye out for the other eyes - especially the red ones! Prepare to get eaten alive by a gang of piranhas, cut into sushi by a hungry crayfish and chased down as no fin can outswim an agile pike.
And just when you thought you were safe, you will face an ancient horror. You’ll know what's coming…
Respawning in 5 seconds...
Crab madness extension
Crab madness is also extended by another week, as new 'baby fish" are requesting a bit more time so they can complete the challenge.
Remember that you can permanently unlock the crab madness mode by earning the Conqueror crab achievement.

The Evil King Crab has taken over the ocean. But there is still hope!
Two weeks after the Crab Madness launch the Crabs are going even more insane. (probably due to the "hard" difficulty... *cough*)
And so we came up with a great new challenge and a huge reward!
Become a King Crab - build your own crab army - defeat the Evil King Crab and take his scepter
A quick guide on how to:
Achieve Level 10 as an ordinary red crab and unlock the King Crab achievement.
Spawn as the King Crab and start building your own green crab army.
Feed and Grow yourself and your green crab army.
Lead your army into glorious battle against the Evil Crab King.
Defeat him, take his precious scepter and become a Conqueror Crab!
Those who achieve the legendary status of Conqueror Crab will unlock the Crab Madness mode permanently. Those who don’t, unfortunately will have to wait until the next April.
Few tips:
As a Red crab, the easiest way to grow up is to find a good spot with lots of small herbivorous fish, open a claw and wait for them to swim into it. Then after a few levels you might be able to prey on bigger fish.
As a King Crab your army will attempt to follow you more or less in a straight line. So don't go behind big obstacles as they might get lost.
As a King Crab, don't charge into the Evil King Crab first, let your troops sacrifice themselves for their King. (He is also pretty strong for a crab.)
Rendering pipeline changes
We have done a few changes to the rendering pipeline. But that required us to change a few settings. By default the Graphics quality settings are now on Fantastic, with Bloom and Ambient occlusion turned on.
- If you are having a very low frame rate after this update, do the following:
Open Graphics category in Settings.
Turn off Ambient occlusion image effect.
Reduce the Quality to Simple or better.
And don't worry, this game is not getting renamed into "Feed and Grow: Crabs" :) - There is a lot of new stuff coming up soon.
