💥 TRENDING: App/ - Full Archive

Hey, Kevin (The Water Museum) here.

So, this game spent over a year sitting in my folders as “Untitled Fishing Game” or at least that’s what it looked like. The truth is… it actually had a name for quite a while. I just held onto it until it felt like the right moment to show it. (proof at the end of this post)

Anyway, About Fishing finally showed up in the PC Gaming Show today, which still feels a bit surreal. 

I’ve been working on it for quite a while with amazing support from Angel Perez Guzman (art) and Cameron Ginex (music). The three of us have been building this little world together powered mostly by love for Sega Bass Fishing, Mysteries Under Lake Ophelia and Shenmue, cornerstones of the industry. (That’s simply how it is, I don’t make the rules.)

If you want to try it out, the open playtest is live right now:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3856530/About_Fishing?utm_source=steam&utm_medium=news&utm_campaign=announcement&utm_content=

The build you’ll play shouldn’t take longer than 15-20 minutes to finish.

(But if you end up staying longer, you’ll have my utmost respect.)

• Just head to the store page.

• Hit the pleasantly looking green button.

• And that’s it. You’re in. Enjoy!

The goal of the playtest is to see what you think of the concept and how you respond to the gameplay. If you happen to like what we’re cooking, it’d be lovely if you considered wishlisting the game and maybe letting others know about it.

And yes - if you want to record videos or reactions, go for it. Just please promise that you’ll share them with me on Discord.

By the way, before I forget:

Come hang out on the Discord. It’ll be fun.

And in case you want to relive the reveal of About Fishing - here’s the announcement trailer.

Let’s rewatch.

*Aaand here’s the proof I really did leave some breadcrumbs.
