From the Steam store

Survive the abyss and defeat Wave 43.

Forget the fishing rod—here, you are nature itself! Dive into the ocean depths and create a relentless capture zone. Devour schools of fish, evolve your powers, and build absurd combinations to survive waves of increasingly dangerous enemies.

Your mere presence in the water is enough to deal automatic damage to any poor soul that swims too close. Catch bigger and bigger fish during the run to strengthen your build and make sure you don't end up as bait.

Each fish you catch improves your abilities in different ways:

Increase your damage (biting harder is never a bad idea)

Boost your attack speed for total frenzy

Expand your capture zone (in the deep sea, size does matter)

Land devastating critical hits

Unleash electric shocks and fry the ocean

Freeze your enemies in place

Increase your oxygen so you don't drown (maritime irony, we know)

Build Your Power

Every fish you catch transforms your build. Mix and match upgrades to create broken synergies and adapt your strategy as the waves grow more aggressive.

Catch multiple copies of the same species to trigger Evolution, progressing through Bronze, Silver, and Gold tiers. At each evolved stage, you choose one of three random cards to enhance your attributes and push your build into madness!

Face Terrifying Bosses (or not so much)

Huge, furious bosses appear as you progress. Defeating them requires a well-crafted build and smart positioning.

Survive the Chaos

As time passes, the ocean becomes completely packed with enemies. Your capture range and evolutions must grow at the same pace, or the tide will swallow you whole.

Discover Legendary Fish

In the middle of the chaos, watch for the ultra-rare Legendary Fish that appear in the depths.

They are unique specimens that grant absurd, devastating powers for a limited time. Catch them at the right moment to turn the game around, wipe the entire screen, and secure your survival when the tide turns against you!

Dominate the Leaderboard

Your goal is simple and direct:

Defeat Wave 43.

Your world leaderboard score is determined by how fast you can go from Wave 1 to the end of Wave 43.

Optimize your build, dominate the ocean, and compete for the fastest time in the world!
