- [IMPORTANT] Upcoming Demo Update Notice - 22 August 2026
Hey everyone, in preparation for launch, we're updating the demo so that demo saves will transfer over to the full game. Meaning that you'll be able to start the full game from wherever you left off in the demo. Sadly to make this work we had to restructure data so, older saves will be wiped again once this update goes live. The good news is that after this, we won't have to do that anymore. So if you'd like to grab screenshots of anything, you have until Monday August 24th, 8am NZT (GMT+12) to do so before everything resets. Some other time zones: United States: Sunday, August 23 at 4:00 PM ET (GMT-4)United Kingdom: Sunday, August 23th, 9PM (BST/GMT+1)Thanks again for trying our demo 🐟
- Dev log-ish thing #1 - 15 May 2026
Hello friends, here’s a quick update on where the game’s at: All of the fish we need have arrived except for one straggler. The bean machine has been thoroughly tested and is fully operational. A world turtle named Edna has opened a library where you can make your own scrapbooks. She’s also signed a trade agreement with the water elementals that means players may now use their currents to share scrapbooks with eachother. (You’ll have to host these yourselves using the human internet. The elementals said they’d be willing to transport books, but that “water’s not good at storing things”).We’re still waiting on a few more things, like Elsa to find more stock and the water elementals to finish writing their guidebook. We’re also still trying to figure out what to do with all these strange artifacts that keep showing up.Additionally, happy Ocean Fest. When we told the fish about it they wer…
- Happy Animal Fest! - 11 November 2025
It's spring here, the rabbits and bugs are plentiful and breaking into our homes and the trees are alive with birdsong. A wonderful atmosphere to complete a game, hopefully sometime in the first half of 2026. We might not know where we're headed or when we will be arriving, but we can tell we're getting close ദ്ദി ( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ ) In other news, our demo is currently being featured in Steams Animal Fest (now until November 17), alongside a bunch of other animal focused games, many of which are on sale. You can check that out here. 🐒🐟🦀🐊🐘
- Scrapbook Update - 25 August 2025
New demo update is out now!The main new thing we've added this time is scrapbooking. You can now turn the photos you've taken into stickers and arrange them in a customizable scrapbook, along with art stickers and washi tape. We're continuing to add to this system and would love to hear your feedback. The long-term plan is allowing players to make books (multiple pages, text etc). We've also squashed a few bugs, and probably made some new ones (｀∀´)Ψ In other news, we're excited to be taking part in the Back To School Games Celebration on Steam (August 25 - Sept 1st), which showcases games themed around school, study or creativity. Check it out here: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44695353/sale/BacktoSchoolGamesCelebration2025

- [IMPORTANT] Demo Update Notice - 6 June 2025
Hey friends, in a few days we will be updating our demo (more on that later).This update changes which items are included and how certain features work, which unfortunately means old save files will no longer be compatible. Your progress will be wiped.We’re sorry for the short notice. If you'd like to hang on to memories, you’ve got until Sunday June 8th, 11AM NZT (GMT+12) to grab screenshots or footage before everything resets. Some other time zones: United States: Saturday June 7th, 7PM ET (GMT-4)United Kingdom: Sunday, June 8th, 12AM (BST/GMT+1)Thanks again for trying our demo. It’s been lovely watching you explore it and we didn't anticipate some of you would spend so much time in it! (which is why we've been perhaps a bit too nonchalant about data).Oh also, this will happen again. On launch we plan to redo the save system (so players can have multiple save files, cloud save etc and…
