Welcome to FishScale Island, a cozy tropical paradise where the biggest catch is always waiting.

Cast your line in lakes, rivers, and the open sea, at day or night, discovering dozens of unique fish with different sizes, weights, and rarities.

Sell your catches, upgrade your equipment, complete your collection, and become a true Fishing Legend!

This game was made for Kenney Game Jam 2026.

THEME: SCALE!

Theme Justification

Fish Scales
Fish are covered in beautiful scales. Rare Shiny Fish have exceptionally valuable scales, making them worth much more when sold at the Fish Shop.

Scale as Size & Weight
Every fish has a unique range of length and weight. The bigger and heavier the catch, the higher its value.

Scale as Progression
Upgrade your fishing rod to catch larger fish, and expand your backpack to carry more of them. Catch bigger fish, earn more money, buy better equipment, and keep scaling up until you become the island's greatest Fishing Legend.

TL;DR

Catch bigger fish. Earn more. Upgrade your gear. SCALE your way to becoming a Fishing Legend.

WARNINGS

#1: This project is still work in progress. Some bugs may appear.

#2: There is a Visual Glitch on WEBGL version that happens with the sea that clips with the land in a stuttery way. It gets worse the far the camera is from the player.
We'll try to fix it ASAP but just a Heads Up!

#3: DO NOT PRESS ESC on WEBGL version, the game will crash.

#4: For a better experience, download the Windows version. : D

#5: Shop doesn't work (sorry!) Money will be granted automatically when catching fish, proportionate to is values. You can still buy better Rod's though (:

#6: We didn't have enough time to set each fishing spot properly. So all spots have the same fish probability :'( 

#7: No WEBGL version at the last second, what a bummer! Please, try o download windows version, time is in realtime!

#8: We shipped a bug guys! GG: 
If you shop for a new rod (part of the point of the game), to buy you need to press 'E' as te mouse on Keyboard doesn't appear. Also, now you'll have a 3D Rod on your canvas forever. Sorry!
