    I've been utterly enamored by this charming game for DAYS now. It's truly marvelous and outstandingly fun to play. Well done you guys, what a spectacular achievement. You should be proud!

    Good news. Patch 1.01 is live on the app store. Fingers crossed that it fixes all the outstanding issues :) Native iPad support coming next.


    1.01 patch notes

    Pet-discovered chests in town can no longer steal your gold
    Music now starts on the opening screen
    Worm auto-reloader now automatically reloads your worms when you run out in addition to giving +5 capacity.
    Plants on the farm should now be able to be picked up whenever ready without needing to close the planting bar
    iPhone 4 error message in the intro fixed
    Ship hitbox in town shrunk a bit and clipping fixed
    Ladder climbing animation fixed
    Inventory buttons a little less twitchy
    Computer lighting in the hacker cave no longer shines through player
    Clarified the Fancy Floater description
    Conversation rewards now given out when the conversation finishes instead of when it starts
    Save file now updated after every fish catch / loot pickup in Fishing screens
    Too many large fish can no longer spawn in the Fishing Hole at the beginning of the game
    Fixed an issue where the game would sometimes count gold bonuses from gear twice (thanks Mike)
    Fixed a possible fishing crash

    Miscellaneous dialogue / description tweaks

    Quests:

    Rav's quest line that leads to Chef's Hat will now start properly
    Knifenose's sunfish quest no longer advances when talking to him without the fish
    Clarified the penguin quest

    Yay!! Thanks for the patch. Now I can finish those last elusive quests.

    Of course, I wouldn't be opposed to any new lists requiring ridiculous amounts of time to catch rare fish either. In this case, the more fishing the better. Thanks again for the awesome game and snappy dialogue.

    Thanks for the patch. Really a joy to move on from the Merman bug and discover the last few islands.

    Would not mind paying more for additional content.

    thanks everyone! these comments are so nice :) glad to hear the patch seems to be working for you! if you'd like to keep supporting our efforts then please just keep spreading the word like you already have, there won't be a charge for the the bonus content pack that we're working on. consider it a free hug haha :)
    as a small dev without marketing money we're wondering the best way to maintain traction in the store, esp after feature week. it's a terrifying world in there :) without your support we really couldn't have gotten this far at all!

    I'm guessing it's a win win, you put out new content, we keep talking, and hopefully it stays on the Hot Games section of TA. I wish nothing but the bet for you guys. I have bought gift copies for everyone I know with an iOS device, and they all love it!

    bought because the devs seem awesome and i like the game so far as well. Would be really awesome if the devs keep adding more content, even as paid expansions. really like the humor as well. initially though i didnt know if i would like it but i bought it just to support the devs! btw has anyone noticed that most characters in the game look really feminine? i keep thinking a character is female until i read their name :p

    I had similar thoughts. The two main character choices both looked like females to me.

    Glad to hear it, this one was keeping me up at night because I couldn't find the original cause, only try to fix the symptom :) Thanks for being so patient and keep on fishing!

    The narwhal is a rare large fish in the Shivering Timbers (the ice place). You can find info on fish you haven't caught by clicking the scroll at the top, then the fish, the scroll to the bottom. Good luck!
