A free desktop companion from solo developer 032: a tiny fisher who lives in the corner of your screen while you work. When something bites, a bubble pops up — and the fish waits until you are ready. Behind that cozy surface sits a real little economy: fishing, cooking with ingredient sizes and star ratings, five shopkeepers, a lottery, two encyclopedias and 30 achievements.
Where to start
- New here? The getting started guide covers your first hour.
- Stuck on a recipe that will not complete? It is almost always ingredient size.
- Wondering why catching got harder after a luck streak? That is the Luck vs rod system.
- Chasing the last achievements? The full list with global rates shows exactly where the community gets stuck.
