I have released a major update for my fish simulation/tycoon game FinLab! It includes a deep breeding system, a time of day, yearly calendar, holidays, and more. It's out now for free on WebGL!

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.

Been working on a lot of game feel, UI polish. And I got some feedback externally. It's so juicy and nice to play. The core loop is done, now I just need to add content and things

With my fake internet wiki, I added a joke fish called the "catfish". It's an early game variant of the foxfish unlocked with a semi-secret through the internet. It does count for 100%. This is something sick me at 2AM thought of.

Sorry for the spam lol but one more thing, snow visuals are improved. Including a slight frosted glass effect and way more dense snow. Winters are very snowy in FinLab! Snowstorms can last days.

I have built some new stuff. Tiles now have yields (civ style), tech tree got a visual pass, and now you can see a heads up on what's being sent/taken/produced.

Working on the procedural techs, you might end up with smaller tech trees or these giant tech trees, or somewhere in between.

Working on a breeding mechanic. You might be able to breed egg specific mutations that can benefit or harm your fish. Some are visual only such as markings on the fish, but other factors are things such as social level, rarity, required water and temps.

Simple arcade-y puzzle block game prototype. It's actually pretty fun and was fairly low effort. Puzzle game coming soon maybe?

Incredibly rough proof of concept for a racing minigame (Chao garden-like). I'm prototyping seasonal minigames which may net you unique rewards. Breeding also matters a lot here, higher breeding level = faster fish. Made in about 2 hours.
