What do you think?

Really love how this looks so far, the Frutiger Aero theme is nice to look at, it reminds me of old Playrix games back in like 2014 (Specifically Fishdom)

I'll be checking it out once it comes out in November, excited to play this! ^^

Very promising!

The whole thing just brings a peaceful vibe.
Definitely coming back when it releases in November!

Main Theme
 

FinLab is a pet simulator merged with a tycoon game. Manage an ecosystem of fictional fish species ranging from fruit themed fish to undead skeleton fish. Discovery is key. Uncover many different fish species all with their own behaviors and needs.

As a tank owner, your goal is to keep your fish as satisfied and as happy as possible, and sell them back for a profit. Alongside this, you can also unlock many different decoration items and themes to design your own personal tank.

It's your tank, your way. Discover this ecosystem of unique and bizarre fish species in a Frutiger Aero themed world. Be creative, be strategic, be evil, be good, no one can decide except you.

New in the Time & Temp update (1.1.0):

  • Breeding - If your tank is not max population and you have 2 of the same species in the tank, there is an uncommon chance of an egg being bred

  • Eggs - Eggs live in your tank or in storage, if they're in the tank they will eventually hatch with updated genetics. The environment the tank is in affects the genetics of the egg.

  • Genetics - Each species has a base parent gene, hatching an egg appends the last parent gene. You can change temps, water type, markings on the fish, and more. Your egg may lean towards these factors or generate an aversion

  • Time of day, weather, seasons - Each season contains holidays, a forecast, and weather which affects temps and adds new visuals. Days and years are tracked.

  • Holidays - On holidays passive buffs will be applied including egg rates, sale price, stock, and unlocks

  • Tank Temperature - Your tank has a temp that is changeable, but will slowly return back to the environmental neutral which is measured by season + weather. Fish have desired temperatures now (which can be bred out)

Hotfix 1.1.2

- Fixed an issue with the previous visual fix in 1.1.1 that would cause a null reference exception

Hotfix 1.1.1

- Fixed bred genes not applying visually on fish on newborns or bought fish.

FinLab 1.1.0 (Time & Temp) is here! This update brings a more mechanically deep experience, changes to the core loop, some fixes/changes + some more fish and decor, there is a LOT so here is the full changelog below:

Some holidays in FinLab will be very similar to our real holidays, where as some are made up. They provide passive buffs that day, for example sell price/stock, egg progression, etc.

The last bit of content is added. Now it's time for balancing/QA. I don't know how long this will take (I'm expecting a lot of bugs), but I'm hoping to have it out ASAP. Here's a teaser of what's in store for the Time & Temp update:

I'm working on a holiday system, it's the last major feature. Then I need to QA/Bug fix. Added some new fish/decor, most of which have to do with the holidays but it's nothing insane. However so many new systems are in, QA is going to be awful.

Status on the update: It still needs some bugfixing, a lot of QA, and I still have a bit more content to add. Hoping to get it out very soon but this is quite a large update.

Loading...

There's also going to be a few new decor objects and a few new fish in this update! Probably won't go overboard but I still have some ideas.

Kind of a boring feature but worth mentioning, with your Gamejolt account I'll save a fairly primitive serialization of your game state with a save/load system. I did something similar with Trail & Trade. It's just tricky to figure out bugs.

When an egg is active, it will be placed in the tank. You can get a ton of interesting colors based on your fish species!
