MAY TAKE A MOMENT FOR THE GAME TO LOAD. Made for the FishFest. Version differences listed below.

FISHAPON is the ultimate idle game that combines fishing and gambling. By pressing the "Go Fish" button you get a new fish, with three stats: Strength, Stamina, and Style. Based on these stats, choose to send it to the War, the Mine, or the Stage. Your fish in the war, the soldierfish, will acquire land based on their total strength. The fish at the mine, the gemfish, will acquire gems based on their total stamina, limited by the amount of land available. Then you will have a number of fans at the show, where the starfish work, based on their total style limited by the amount of gems available, and the fans give you more money to use to get more fish. Balance all three to get a good stream of money and try to collect all 22 kinds of fish!

Versions:

  • 1.0 (WINDOWS) - "standard" way to play the game. Has an autosave feature, where after getting a new fish the save data is written to a .txt file. If this .txt file is edited incorrectly, the game may either crash or delete the save data when reopened
  • 1.0 (WEB) - no longer available, this was the browser version during the FishFest gamejam. It ran slower than the 1.0 (WINDOWS) version due to PyGame / Pygbag issues
  • 1.1 (WEB) - current browser version, fixes the 1.0 (WEB)'s crash issue, and increases the game speed.

Lovely game.

game keeps crashing

:(

Hello ! I just played the game. I have been in love with idle games and earning resources game so this game is fun ! 

It's just that the majority of my run ended up crashing when I put a fish in the "War" section. I think may be it was an infinite loop somewhere? The game ran at first, but my memory got overloaded and the game closed, so that's just my prediction.

Ah ok thanks for letting me know! I'll have to check, either it'll be an infinite loop or may just be because pygame isn't exactly ideal for web games (or maybe I'm really inefficient at programming).

I'll try to get a fix ready for after the Jam's rating period!

Honestly super creative! Only issue was it kept crashing but great work!

Oh I'm sorry to hear that it was crashing :( were you playing the web version or the download version, and do you remember what you were doing when it crashed?

Thank you for playing though!
