Weird/funny graphical glitch with the Skybox
I was fishing in Colorado and fast-forwarded time to the next day; it was loading very slow for some odd reason - so I opened steam overlay and put on some music with the steam music player. I alt-tabbed to check my emails and when I came back, I saw this:

Bird god is watching:

I found it amusing so I continued to fish, I was reeling my line when suddenly the god of Rainbow Trouts appeared:

Rainbow Trout god giving me a blessing:

I continued to fish 'till around 9pm, with Bird god and Rainbow Trout god appearing from time-to-time. I noticed something odd - Rainbow Trout god appears when I am about to have a trout bite my lure. To test this theory - I tried fishing for a panfish:

The god of Bluegills appear!

After he appeared - I got a bite. So I guess my theory was correct:

I fast-forwarded time to the next day but got an infinite loading screen so I restarted the game and everything was back to normal.

I tried replicating the glitch by alt-tabbing lots of times while loading but it doesn't work.

I am gonna miss Bird god and Rainbow trout god.

PS: I know it's a glitch but this is game is on alpha so this is perfect time to fix such things - I triggered it by accident and do not know what exactly triggered it, sorry.

It's a funny bug, causing the sky to show the fish textures whenever a fish has spawned in. It clearly shows how the fishing currently works.

Instead of the better system that games like rapala pro fishing or even sega bass fishing use. In those games, fish spawn in when the lake is loaded and fisherman have to go after a hunt to find the fish. Here the fish spawn in based on an algorithm when the bait/lure is in the water, allowing the fisherman to "spam" cast the same "best" fishing spot.
lmao, I've had the bird god before, too.

Pretty sure that all of the above users are using a NVIDIA video card, try updating your graphic drivers to the latest version, it should fix that problem.

I've tried that already, no result.

Does it have anything to do with possible overheating GPU? Or it's game's bug? I have AMD and it happened to me twice. I found out temperatures reached 80-89'C couple of times and re-tuned some settings in game and 'radeon settings'. Mostly caping framerate and turning SSAO off. Now it reach 'only' up to 72'C.

I didn't noticed overheating, but on my laptop the game works much smoother with highest resolution instead of low res.

I have had this several times, it's been happening for quite a while now ,,, The only way I can fix it is to restart Fishing Planet.
