v0.2 - More Fishes Update - 15.07.2025

Hey there,

Everytime I try to do something else, the Catfish pulls me back in. So here's another update.

Balancing:

• Added more types of food to increase the variety of your Catfish’s diet 
• Adjusted the “Food” Upgrade (and effect texts)
  • Cost increases 6 times per level instead of 8 times
  • Decreased Base Value to 1.75 instead of 2
  • Increased max level from 8 to 15

• Bigger Breed has been adjusted once again
  • Base Cost increased from 300 to 500
  • Cost increases 12.5 times per level instead of 6 times
  • Decreased the max level from infinite to 3
  • Increased the Base value from 5 to 10

• Some GP Upgrades were buffed 
  • Sponsorship:
    • Increased max level from 5 to 10 (makes Food, Salary and Coupon permanent until Ascension)
  • Premium Food:
    • Cost now increases 2 times per level instead of 2.5 times
    • Base Value increased from 2 to 2.5
  • DNA Manipulation:
    • Base Value increased from 1.2 to 1.5

QoL:

• Automation preferences 
  • You can set certain preferences for Auto-Sell and Auto-Free
  • Auto-Sell:
    • Always sell when possible
    • Sell on Max size
    • Sell on Max OOM (order of magnitude, so basically every multiple of 10, which in the game is 1cm, 1dm and 1m)
  • Auto-Free:
    • Always free when possible
    • Custom GP threshold (enter any number to automatically free your catfish once it is big enough)

UI:

• Changed the "blush" animation a little
• Added a tooltip for some buttons that is displayed when hovering the button
• Added a progress bar to display when the next Ascension is available
• Moved the “Game Saved” text to the top left
• Adjusted the effect text for Bigger Breed so the values are multiplied by DNA Manipulation’s value
• Adjusted the effect texts for upgrades that display a percentage based value

Misc:

• Added the dev’s logo to the start of the game

Bug Fixes:

• The new “Ascension Counter” text displayed a $ at the end. This has been fixed
• Corrected the effect text for “Chomp”
• Adjusted the hitboxes for the buttons on the bottom right 
• Some Upgrades had scuffed effect texts (too many decimals). This has been resolved
• Freeing Fish had no cooldown. This has been fixed

Have fun and stay healthy!
