It’s finally time!! FISH FEAR ME will be coming out in two weeks, and I am EXTREMELY excited.

You know, this thing!

MORE DETAILS:

  • The game will be launching on February 21st for $9.99, with a 20% discount for the first two weeks (so $7.99 in practice).

  • It features three maps, fifteen biomes, sixteen boats, thirty weapons, and 150ish fish to catch. If playtests are anything to go by, this results in somewhere around 30-60 hours of content for completionists.

  • It ALSO features a storyline exploring the Fisherman’s cosmic debt. To resolve this debt, you’ll need to delve into the eldritch waters beneath the earth, learn arcane rituals, and slay the Leviathan before it consumes you.

  • It’s about… five times larger than SNAKE FARM? At least. There’s a LOT of content here, including fourteen separate game-bending lures which augment builds and give access to special ultra-rare bounties.

  • If the game launches well, I have plans for multiple free content expansions with new maps, boats, weapons, and more! The first content expansion will be called WOMEN WANT ME.

  • I will be taking down the free demo when the game launches. This isn’t because I’m opposed to free demos, but because the demo will corrupt newer saves and completely erase 90% of your progress if you try to open it after opening the main game. There’s no way around this outside of completely remaking the demo, which I… do not have time to do.

  • That being said, if you played the demo, the game should remember your progress when you start the full game, and unlock anything you would’ve unlocked at your current level of progression!

  • I have genuinely no idea how this game came together so well. By all means, it shouldn’t be nearly as good as it is! But it is.

That’s all for this time! I will be very annoying about this launch over the next couple weeks (and probably a couple weeks after). Thank you for reading!!
