A few questions
1. Is there a cap on how much gold you can have per ascension?

2. What does "increase value" mean? Does this mean every time you earn gold you earn more of it? What exactly does "increase value" mean?

3. When actively catching a fish, do the small yellow lines make the fish more valuable or simply let you catch them faster?


Just a suggestion, but the game could use some more information. Adding in an encyclopedia explaining various features and currencies would be helpful.

1. no
2. if you make 100 gold out a fish, and you get a 10% bonus upgrade, it will be 110 gold next time
2. just letting you catch it faster

Thanks. And the "increase gold value" applies every time gold is earned, or only for catching fish? For example does it increase the gold seagulls drop...etc?

And one last thing. I'm trying to get the achievement to ascend without getting any gold. But even when I click ascend immediately, with zero gold showing, it always gives me a small amount making this achievement impossible. Is there any way around this?

Try and time it so that everyone is baiting fish when you ascend the first time and make sure you ascend before anyone has time to actually reel anything in (even if they start reeling); it's probably also worth checking you don't have a pet equipped that's gaining gold somehow (such as the parrot auto-catching seagulls).

I'm also hunting for answer on that achievement. I only have 8 achievements left to get and I've tried to ascend immediately after ascending but fish are caught too fast. Unless, I find another plan, my goal is to leave that achievement last, fire all 10 of my 7 star fishermen and ascend one final time to get the achievement and call it a day, gg.

About that achievement, you are right, its problematic
I will solve it for update 1.8 by adding close button to the ascending animation, so you could
1) ascend
2) quickly close the animation windows
3) ascend again with 0 gold
4) get the achievement :)
