- Free DLC "Fishing The Abyss AQUARIUM" is Now Available! - 23 May 2025
Hello everyone, it's been a while. Thanks to your incredible support, Fishing The Abyss has been purchased and reviewed by many players. As my first release as a solo developer, this experience has been full of learning and growth for me. I truly appreciate all the feedback you've provided. (And of course, I’ll always be happy to receive more reviews in the future.) As a token of my gratitude, I'm pleased to announce the release of a free downloadable content, Fishing The Abyss AQUARIUM. This DLC was created both to fulfill requests from players who wanted to view the entire bodies of the creatures, and to express my appreciation to those who continue playing far longer than I ever anticipated. Fishing The Abyss AQUARIUM is a standalone DLC that launches independently from the main game. Note: Launching it together with the main game requires a few additional steps. Please refer to the…
- 10,000 Copies Sold! - 26 February 2025
We are thrilled to announce that Fishing The Abyss has surpassed 10,000 sales! With so many interesting games out there, we truly appreciate you taking the time to play this little creation of ours—if it can even be called a "game"! Moving forward, we are releasing a demo version—yes, a bit late, we know. This demo will have a level cap of 100, but aside from that, there are no restrictions. Plus, save data from the demo will carry over to the full version. (That said, we assume most of you reading this have already purchased the game!) Additionally, while it's still undecided at this stage, we are planning a major update that might include features like viewing the full bodies of creatures! (We’re still in the early planning stages, so it’ll take some time—and honestly, we can’t guarantee it’ll be completed—but consider this a little sneak peek for those reading this news!) Thank you f…

- ver 1.3.0 Beta Update - 29 December 2024
This update introduces a critical data protection system for save data, so we have decided to release it as a Beta version, separate from the official update. Update Details ・Implemented a system to detect data corruption caused by interruptions during save data writing and automatically recover from backup data. With this feature, the folder icon previously displayed on the title screen has been removed. In the unlikely event of save data corruption, players will no longer need to manually restore save data from a backup. ・The reset button in the settings screen now resets the window scale and height to their minimum values, moves the window to the zero position (top-left corner) of the display, and initializes it. This adjustment addresses an issue where players with low-resolution displays could not adjust the vertical height of the window, providing a solution for such cases. ・Added…

- Refund Request Guidance for Customers Affected by the ver 1.1.0 Point Accumulati - 24 December 2024
Hello, this is umaaaaaa, the developer of Fishing The Abyss. First and foremost, I would like to sincerely apologize once again for the inconvenience caused by the issue in ver 1.1.0, where starting the game from either "New Game" or "Continue" resulted in beginning with an excessive amount of points. Although the issue was resolved with the release of version 1.1.1 just a few hours later, it still affected both new purchasers during that time and existing players who had already been enjoying the game. After reaching out to Steam Support and providing a detailed explanation of how this issue impacted players, I negotiated with them to accommodate refund requests beyond the usual refund conditions. As a result, they have agreed to approve refunds for customers who purchased the game before the ver 1.1.1 patch and can explain the issue they encountered. If you would like to request a ref…

With this update, an orange mini-icon will appear on the encyclopedia icon, letting you know before opening it. Added Max Level Rewards and Conditions for "Reel Performance" and "Weight" Descriptions now include details about max level rewards and unlock conditions from the start. This change was made to address the hesitation players felt about leveling…

ssue Identified in ver1.1.0! We have confirmed a critical issue in ver1.1.0 where the game starts with an abnormal point value. This is a serious problem that should never have occurred... We have now released ver1.1.1 to address this issue. However, I deeply apologize to the 74 players who purchased the game during the time ver1.1.0 was available and those who started playing during this period. Unfortunately, they experienced a flawed gameplay experience that did not meet expectations. For players unable to obtain a refund through Steam's refund system, I am currently exploring solutions (I am committed to issuing refunds where appropriate and am investigating the best way to handle this situation). I am sincerely sorry for the inconvenience caused by this issue. Rest assured that I will handle this matter with the utmost sincerity and care. Currently, I am in contact with Steam Suppo…
