That's it. Even though it left Early Access, Fisherman Classic is back to development, and V2.0 is getting near. A completely remasterized game, with more places to explore and fish to catch. A whole new experience, with more white fish powder than ever. A brand new adventure. Guns included.

More updates really soon. Wait and see.

Update #1 (Fisherman Classic 1.1.0)

Monday (25 May 2020) Major Update description in English and Portuguese


- You can now move also with WASD keys;
- 5 new species of fish/sea creatures;
- 2 new quests;
- 2 new spots of fishing;
- Sound effects*:
> when using the fishing rod;
> when a fish is caught.
- Small notification when a fish is caught;
- Small design updates;
- Collisions between characters;
- Re-arranging of quests positions.

- Using the boat outside lakes/sea is now fixed (people were being able to navigate outside the map and on land because of that bug);
- When running out of fuel or food, you don't need to restart the game anymore;
- Boat/Misc shops texts fixed.

- With the new 5 species added, Fisherman Classic contains 10 species in total!
- Fishy Archipelago have now 2 more places to fish that has unique species (with a total of 5 unique spots to fish);
- The 5 species that were being able to caught (before this update) can be found in all of the 5 spots of fishing, but every spot has a unique species that can only be found in this particular spot! So, if you want to get all the 10 species that Fishy Archipelago currently have, you must find those 5 unique spots.
- With that in mind, a new quest has been created (FISHY RESEARCHER 2): if you find the 10 species, you get $350K! It's the biggest quest so far, and it has the biggest reward, since it's not going to be easy!
- Also, the Capitalist Santa quest is now updated. Now you need both $1.000.000 and the Fishy Researcher 2 quest completed. This can be seen as the final quest of the current version of Fisherman Classic, and the prize is rather unique.
- The other quest added (PIRATE AHAB) is about getting one of the different spot's unique species. You must caught the Giant Squid and give to Pirate Ahab for $100K!

All the quests are spotted on the map.
Again, thanks for all the feedback. A lot of what was written here on the store page and other forums have been incorporated in this update and we hope to get more feedback so we can constantly improve Fisherman Classic! Thank you all!

*I've opted to not include a sound effect when riding a boat for now. Maybe a more suitable feature would be a sprite of splashing water when moving the boat, since the sound of the boat could be a little annoying. I'm going to wait a bit for more feedback before I release this feature later.


- Você agora pode se mover com AWSD;
- 5 novas espécies de peixes e criaturas marinhas;
- 2 novas quests;
- 2 novos locais únicos de pesca;
- Efeitos sonoros*:
> quando usado uma vara da pesca;
> quando um peixe é fisgado;
- Pequena notificação quando um peixe é fisgado;
- Pequeno update no design do jogo;
- Colisões entre personagens;
- Re-ordenamento das quests.

- Navegar o barco em terra firme está consertado (alguns players estavam conseguindo sair do mar ou lago e navegar na terra por causa de um bug);
- Quando acabar sua comida ou combustível, você não precisa mais resetar o jogo;
- O texto das lojas de itens e barcos foi consertado.

- Com as novas 5 espécies adicionadas, Fisherman Classic tem agora 10 espécies!
- Fishy Archipelago tem agora 5 locais únicos de pesca!
- As 5 espécies que o jogo tinha antes desse update podem ser pescadas em todos os locais únicos de pesca, porém as novas 5 espécies são encontradas apenas cada uma em um local de pesca único;
- Sobre isso, foi criado uma nova quest: FISHY RESEARCHER 2. Você deve pegar todos as 10 espécies (ou seja, precisa achar e pescar em todos os locais únicos de pesca) para ganhar $350K. É a quest mais complexa até agora, porém a mais gratificante!
- A quest do Capitalist Santa também foi atualizada. Agora, além dos $1.000.000, você precisa também ter completado a quest FISHY RESEARCHER 2. O prêmio é uma "surpresa", e essa quest se refere ao "final" do jogo no seu estado atual;
- A outra quest adicionada (PIRATE AHAB) se refere à captura da Lula Gigante adicionada, que só pode ser encontrada em um local específico. É parte da FISHY RESEARCHER 2, porém só ela te dará $100K, já que a lula gigante é a criatura mais rara de se achar no Fishy Archipelago.

Todas as quests estão indicadas no mapa do jogo.
Novamente, obrigado a todos pelo feedback. Esse é o primeiro update traduzido para português, e eu espero poder traduzir todos os próximos também!

Hi,
In this quick devlog, I would like to announce that every devlog, update or news will be written both in English and Portuguese. I wish I could translate everything also to Russian and Chinese, since these are two countries of the most Fisherman Classic's players. However, as a solo developer, I can only speak and write English and Portuguese. Maybe in the future, right?
The June update will arrive with a game translation to portuguese as well!
I'm also going to translate the last update (Monday) released to portuguese and release it on the store this friday, along with a "update visibility round", which will allow more visibility to the game.

Now, regarding the game features itself, I'm currently developing a "bonus scene" for Fisherman Classic. I'm not going to spoil it right now, but it will be a arcade system heavily inspired on the "Jak & Dexter" fishing quest :D. More info about it this weekend!

Olá,
Nesse devlog rápido, gostaria de anunciar que todo devlog, update ou qualquer notícia será postado em inglês e português. Gostaria de poder traduzir tudo para russo e chinês também, já que esses são os dois países com mais jogadores de Fisherman Classic. Porém, como sou um desenvolvedor "solo", só consigo traduzir para inglês e português. Quem sabe no futuro, né?
O update de Junho contará com atualização do jogo para português!
Também irei traduzir para português o conteúdo do último update (segunda-feira) e lançar nessa sexta, junto com um "update visibility round", que dará mais visibilidade para o jogo.

Agora, quanto ao conteúdo do jogo em si, estou desenvolvendo um "modo bonus" do Fisherman Classic. Não vou dar spoiler agora, mas será um pequeno jogo arcade fortemente inspirado na quest de pescaria do jogo "Jak & Dexter" :D. Mais informações sobre isso nesse fim de semana!

Hi!

Some people have been asking about the game's music and, more recently, if it's possible to download it somewhere, so I've decided to upload it on YouTube. It's already on!

Hello everyone!
In this quick Devlog I'd just like to announce that the new update is now available!
More details about the content added as well as bug fixes can be found on the specific post made previously. Check it out if possible. Feel free to comment on this post if you want to say anything!

The next big update will be released in June, but I'll be making small updates weekly based on the feedback and aiming at solving little issues or bugs. In this June update, I plan to double the size of the map, and to add more 20 species of fishes and sea creatures.

Regarding Linux, I had to remove the Linux version of the store page (but it is still part of the package) until I can fully fix the bugs that specific depot seem to have. This week I'm going to focus on this issue and I expect to fix it by next Monday.

Regarding the new quests and species, I'd like to emphasize that:
- The species that can be found in every fish spot (lake, sea, etc) are catalogued as LOW rarity;
- The species that can only be found in a single fish spot are catalogued as MEDIUM rarity;
- The Giant Squid, that also can be found in only one fish spot, but is much rare and hard to caught, is catalogued as HIGH rarity.
Keep in mind that, because the rarity will be important later on the game.
The two new quests were made towards exploring the whole map. Caughting the Giant Squid and, later, all 10 species will be a hard but rewarding task to do.


Again, thank you all! See you on the next weekly devlog.

I had to create another event due to some problems, but here we go:

The first weekend of Fisherman Classic has passed, and a lot of people are playing it!
I'm aware of some bugs people are encountering, and because of that, we've decide to release a update next Monday already, and not only with bug fixes, but with new content!

The content we plan to release is:
- Missing sound effects (boat riding, fish and item caught, quest completed, fishing rod);
- Minor design update;
- A brand new quest;
- Three new species of fish;
- Bug fixes.

I've been receiving a lot of feedback, mostly through forums, and some of them here on the reviews section. Thank you all! I'm sure Fisherman Classic will grow a lot in this Early Access period.

Thank you!
