Small story/tutorial update and general improvements patch.

Black Hole Fishing · published 5 May 2026, 09:14 UTC

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Changelog:
Added FPS Limiter
Added Bleach achievement to prevent confusion for new players (code is added, I will set up the actual achievement soon)
Added more story beats on compression events
Added 2 new animations for prestige and game won
Fixed achievement triggering early
Ensured that windowed mode always shows the window border
Added custom fish names (and fixed hatchery name replication).

Notes:
This patch contains the first real additions to the game since launch, along with a few bug-fixes. This mostly appeared in the tutorial/story text and related animations. The ending is a little better, but I'm still playing with a few final elements. I have a small story beat planned at the ending isn't really foreshadowed, so I'm adding a few more small bits of text throughout the game to support it.
I am close to done with the OST integration as well. Once these smaller changes are in, I'm going to start focusing more on the first major update. This will take some time (probably a month or two), so if you are interested in being involved, consider hopping on the Discord server for more frequent updates. I'm always looking for players who want to try out new builds before they go live. https://discord.gg/4S3mfzNenY

TL:DR - If you enjoyed the game and are waiting for a big update before playing again, this isn't it. I'm working on something a bit more substantial that will be worth coming back to. If you're looking for an excuse to play the game again, there are a few new bits of text and animations to discover, but no major mechanical changes.

Black Hole FishingGame update2 Sep 2026Performance patch and bugfixing (V 1.0.4.8)Changelog: There were a lot of small changes in this one, but here are the highlights: 1. Performance is increased. I see a 2X framerate improvement on my computer, but ymmv. 2. We added 3 save slots and gave the save system one more look-over. Auto-saves are easier to access now, some players were getting confused and a couple overwrote a save file on accident.

And roadmap updateThank you everyone for an amazing launch! (and for 250 reviews)! So, Black Hole Fishing is my first game ever.

We managed to hit 1,500 concurrent players (which is a bit crazy to me), and we are now past 250 Very Positive reviews. ːsteamhappyː I am continuing…
