Polish indie developer Blinkclick Games has just announced the Fishkeeper Kickstarter campaign to help raise funds for its highly realistic fishkeeping simulator. The team is now asking fans of fishkeeping and aquascaping to help collect some part of the game’s budget.
The very idea of Fishkeeper is for you to buy an aquarium, equip it, arrange its interior to your liking, add in the fishes or animals you want, and start breeding. The producers of the game have made it clear with their intention to make this game something special, other than your usual clicker game with boring animations that get old really quick.
Check out the trailer below:
Become a professional aquarist! Look after your aquarium by giving fish food, good conditions and nice company. Multiply and sell the best specimens at auctions. Take care of the fish and they will repay you with a beautiful appearance that you can admire while cruising in a bathyscaphe!
According to Blinkclick Games, the project has three pillars: advanced artificial intelligence for animals, beautiful realistic-stylized graphics, and an efficient in-game economy. It will recreate some basic mechanisms and dependences performing in a water biotype between species, like different fish compatibility, redundant snails brought with new plants, or plant growth.
Main features of the game:
- Combining an economic strategy with a simulator: meet the needs of fish and observe their lives in real-time, while ensuring good breeding results;
- A wide variety of freshwater, marine, coral, shrimp, snails, and other aquatic species are available;
- Customize the aquarium equipment, shape, size, and appearance of tanks;
- Buy animal and plant species, sell bred fish in the store and, exceptionally, fine and rare specimens at an auction;
- Watch the views from the bathyscaphe cabin as you control it inside the aquarium; you can also use it to clean the tank from the inside;
- Decorate your aquarium with lots of decorations, corals, posters, etc.
