Beautiful game. Me and my 4 years old son play it daily while we chill in the afternoon. Thank you so much for making such a cute game, he really likes the fishies. He cleans the tanks and feeds the fishes. Great game for father and son bonding. 10/10 recommended.

Games good, as a fisherman and fish enthusiast, have my own little community here on the tv is delightful. It reminds me of a quote my old man would tell me. I am alone, I am empty, and yet I fish.
Launched it to "check it out for a minute." 6 hours later, I've developed emotional attachment to pixelated fish and accidentally sold a 7k fish like a victorian orphan trading family heirloom for bread. Game is calm. Game is quiet. Game is shiny. Shapes and colours are good. It is just enough to keep my brain from spinning into the void. And I love how it can sit at the bottom of my screen like a polite aquarium intern. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys casual serotonin and unintentional fish based financial loss.
A game so cozy and enjoyable enough as to fight back the negative effects LoL has had on me. Played a whole game of LoL Ranked with my Aquarium on second monitor and I did not get angry or degrade at all the whole game! Even after inting early game!
This is not a mobile game, there's no need for "retention mechanics" like "you didn't show up for a few days so all your fish are dead".
It's a fun game, it's not too long, not too short. You don't have to babysit much of it, and at some point it becomes more like an "offline idle progression" game than anything. End game is mostly collecting "shinies" (think pokemon, but more common), breeding perfect stats on your favorite species and decorating your tanks.
Finally, a game where I can live my truth. There is something so sweetly rewarding when it comes to taking care of something that exists this cutely and breeding it over and over. I love those lil swimmers, it's so silly but I can't help but smile just watching them do their thing. Sadly, I am unable to give each one of my adorable fishies a kiss, that is the only negative of this game. I want to put my love inside their tank where it's meant to be, fish food is not enough!
Very charming visuals, music and game play. Great addition to any daily routine.
I'm the kind of guy who is always stressed. I'm working on that and games like this help. No pressure. No microtransactions. No stress. Hatch your fish, go fishing, clean your tank, feed your fish (you pick the order). Use the earning from your catches to buy more eggs, or upgrade the decor of your fish tank(s). The voxel graphics are cute and crisp, and it's immersive enough to get lost in. If I could make any recommendations, it would be find a way to make each newly hatched or bred fish unique (keep the same color pallet, but scatter some of ten pixels and patterns around). This would give each fish it's own personality to an extent. I'd also like to mention the game works perfectly fine on the Steam Deck :) Thank you to the devs for putting this out, I wish you much success, and I hope to see further expansion and updates.
This game does not run on some older systems as advertised, check the discussions to make certain that this is actually able to run on your potato. Otherwise it's a delightful game, it's a shame I can't recommend it to people.
