- Chinook Release Date Announcement - 3 March 2026
Hey All,I'm happy to announce that the game is finally releasing, without delaying getting to the point, the release date is 3/4/2026 @4:00pm MST. For those of you who haven't been paying attention to your calendars, that is tomorrow! Anyways, I'm sorry this took so long, but I'm super happy with what my very small team and I have been able to accomplish. Since my last announcement, we've done a couple things, this includes:More unlockable fish, bringing the total up to 31 fish for you guys to discover!More intuitive difficulty selectionOne more hidden "level"2 more NPCsSome quality of life menu editsAnyways, I am super excited to see if you all will find all the things I hid in the game, there is a lot! Now for what's to come. If this game does well, I am planning on adding some content, I have a few levels in mind that would be fun to work on, and hopefully, play. I also have quite a…
- Back in the Swing of Things/Progress is Being Made - 15 February 2026
Hey all!As promised, I am back working on the game. Over the weekend I was able to get steam achievements working, 4 new unlockable fish, 2 new NPCs, and 2 new endings. I am hesitant to put a release date yet, as I am not sure how much content I want to add. I am debating between releasing it sooner, then see how it does and add some other content I have in the back of my head, or adding a few more things and letting this project be. I'm hoping to submit a build in the next couple of weeks, then get it released within the span of the next two months. Thank you for your patience, and here is a new NPC to tide you guys over!Best, Andrew Wilson Tate
- Still Working On The Game - 5 February 2026
Hi All,Sorry for the silence as of late! Progress on my projects has slowed to a crawl. This past year, I started a graduate program for Graphical Programming, and my free time to work on Chinook and other projects has slowed down. However, I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel and foresee being able to power through the last few features of Chinook and finally get that product out. Moreover, I have recently become the vice-chair of a student SIGGRAPH chapter at the University of Utah. For those of you who don't know what SIGGRAPH is, it's a subset of a subset. There is ACM, which is the Association for Computing Machinery. SIGs are Special Interest Groups for this society. In this case, this is the Special Interest Group for graphics. Right now, we are organizing a year-long project of either a game or a film. I would be super stoked to work on either with a large gro…
- UV Lanterns and Matchmaking using Firebase - 24 April 2025
Echoes of Fellow Swimmers For this week's devlog, we want to talk about some new mechanics we have added. Essentially, we had this idea of having really subtle community-based puzzles that maintain the single-player aspects, while also feeling like some players are in the game somewhere. In the past week, we have achieved this! The Lantern We created a shader that can swap between textures based on a positional coordinate to determine what part of an object's UV map should be "revealed". This means that we can essentially create a black-light effect that allows the player to reveal secret writing. This lantern is in a very dark, and very hard-to-reach level and will be used for a few puzzles, that I won't spoil. But one of these puzzles is our first community-type puzzle! This leads us to our other big topic: Database Integration We have also implemented a fairly robust database system…
- Introducing: Gandoof the Wand Stroker - 17 April 2025
I am Gandoof... and Gandoof means... ME! Starting today, our team is going to attempt to do weekly devlogs to keep people updated on ongoing features and general progress on the game. Today I'd like to introduce our new quest giver, Gandoof. He is a totally orignal wizard originating from Leftish Earth. We decided that some of the secrets in the game are so far hidden, that Gandoof was needed to give hints and point swimmers in the right direction. In addition, he also will have a quest that involves delivering a questionable tape back to a blockbuster! More Updates: We are attempting to add a total of 100 unlockable fish for our initial release, all with unique unlock conditions Major progress has been done on a level that takes place after the underworld Major progress has been done on a level that takes place after the underworld Initial work on a database that will allow for communi…
