does anybody know what the "reborn progression" in the seagull means? i didnt notice any changes
how does drain target work
It only shows which option is active, you have to go to FORGE, select one of the 3 options on top, then open METALWORK, fill the bar with ORE BARS (with % buttons), and then pres CAHRGE using LEGENDARY SPIRIT AURA
Does gold ore have a use after the legendary upgrades are done?
I seem to be stuck on an infinite loading screen, it is animating, but I waited for several minutes and nothing came of it
where do you find the mine shop? I can only find the treasure room. also how do I refine the brute ore into bars?
the mine shop is in the upgrade panel (with popcorn/seed and twigs upgrades) you can also refine your ore in there.
for me, sometime the frogfolke boss become immune to damage. I have to reset the floor or restart the page a few times to fix it.
Bug : the mitose for sparrow says doesnt waste any exp when making more sparrows i had 500k exp and clicked on it it reset to 0 on the next tier its a lie it wastes ur exp but it says it doesnt
Mitosis only uses what exp it needs for the upgrade. If you wanted to mitose your sparrow, and you had 750K exp but only needed 500K for the upgrade, you would still have 250K left over to use after mitosis. It won't waste any extra you have, but it doesn't mean it doesn't cost the exp indicated to perform.
It's not like seeds where after a certain point, they are no longer spent when upgrading.
Loving the game so far! I seem to be having an issue catching shiny fish. I have been consistently studying the fish, and the majority of the fish I have should give at least a 0.1% chance of being shiny. While the odds are slim, they're not so slim that I should be 13,000 fish deep without at least one shiny.
The fish are also indicating that they're "Mastered" in my index despite not having a shiny submitted, though previously they showed that they "Need Shiny." The fish however, do not appear in the Mastered Tab, which is empty.
Looking forward to the Steam release! I already have it Wishlisted :)
Yeah, same here.
I am currently in expedtition level 5, likely had tons of fish mastered yet have never seen any shiny ever!
Like I have enver caught any shiny of any kind, which is ridiculous given that the game has been fishing for like literal days at this point while I am doing expeditions and stuff.
Like how useless ar ethose seagalls, despite seeing somewhere a 50+% shiny chance they cant pull out any shiny ever?
I think the game is sjut broken there an catching shinies is sjut impossible.not odds wise but downright broken in the game coe.cause otherwise I couldnat have tens of hudnrerds offish mastered (except for lacking a shiny version for each) yet haventcaught a sinlge shiny ever!
I can report that it is possible to get the shinies, but the odds are definitely off. I caught one around 36K (Thanks, Seagull #1), but I haven't caught another yet, and I'm now at 121K fish. Almost every fish I have been able to catch (also on Expedition 5) has been mastered. I just got the Moonlit perk, so I'm hoping that this will help!
press P it shows ur profile and scroll all the way to bottom which shows the fishing stats the real shiny chance which someone told me is in ur profile and the starting chance is 0.0002% or 0.002% to get a shiny but u need to upgrade it more
huh, it's 0,004% currently, a miserable joke.
you say upgrade...
but when or where?
I am at expedition 5, huddlign in the top left corner since only the weakest mobs in this map dont kill me over time, my hp regeen can hold up agaisnt them.
got all the upgrades so far in both desert and sunflowerfield, excpet for one that require an insane amount of golden corsn (like 10T or such?)and upgrades that require specific fish.for msot of thsoe the catchign chance according to fishdex is ltierally "cant catch".and the e250 empty bottled which shpuld be junkbut I am having seagulls fish in floor 4 and so far they havent found enough bottles (I aint gonna search for tthe bottle count in my collection among the 300 fish kinds that there are..and aside from that not much to do.net sacrifice wants 1T, forge wants 500,500,1000 epic aura for the 3 things. obviousl all 4 artifact slots with the best hp restore artifacts I have, all maxed out level wise.except from umbra bastion, cause that is epic so I only ugpraded it to level 6 of 10.
but yeah, at this point I dotn see hwo to advance. except to put the guy in a comfortable moster spot to kill respawning mobs endlessly or place him in the golden corn fields and let him work.and come bck in a day or day.haoping that the very few thign I can then ugprade is enough to let me beat the next hardest mobs on the current map.
no clue how many eons it's gonna take me to get to floor 7 from the start of floor 5 where I am now.
too bad the moster is gone, otherwise now would be a ncie point for a prestige of sorts...
u need to study and master the fish in aquarium in order to increase shiny chance bc if u cant get shiny u need to study them to increase odds
This makes more sense! Though my shiny odds were 0.03%, realistically, even if we consider the stat rising over time, a single shiny in what ended up being 140K fish is statistically unlikely. Moonlit definitely got the ball rolling, and I ended up with a few more as I left my game running today. I may have just been the RNG gods' chosen victim this time though :')
Cool game, but at some point it generate more and more content, more incomprehensible adds that ruin the simple game that we have in the begining.
Too bad it become a massif complex game.
I've spend a lot of hours on it, and now I will not play it again.
thanks anyway to the author for sharing his amazing works !
I've been playing the browser version for several months now, and I think I'm encountering a bug with accessing the dungeon? Based on what other folks are saying, it should be accessible once you max out the pigeon's three base equipment pieces. I've done that, and I still can't get into the mine.
I'm also having this issue! I've tried refreshing the page and rebirbing but it didn't do much.
same here
The solution was "I didn't remember that I could rebirb the parrot a second time." So, my own fault.
Maybe you can put some emojis on the fast travel tab next to the area names, just because the menu gets a little too big later on, or, have the area I'm currently in show and greyed out because when the areas keep rearranging in the fast travel tab I have to look for a bit to click the place I want to go.
Is twig rebirbing supposed to reset your auto upgrade settings? Also the twig rebirb upgrades doesn't collapse the options as you max them like the other upgrades in the game. With that being said, I'm really enjoying this game.
yeah, basicallly buying any kind of upgrade manially sjut turns all auto ugpraders off :-(
found a bug when my game deleted my data that instead of seagull with 0 rebirbs being max level 50 it is 25 and reborn says sets level max 50 to 100 and the max is 25 from 0-9 rebirbs how does that make sense
is it just me or is it a part of the update in the game bc u have to get half of max level to rebirb the seagull
good gamr but ahcievmeents dont work.
as I am in the sunflower fields farming seeds there yet still havent gotten the "get 1 popcorn" or anyof the other achievements!
the achivements aren't in the game yet.
are shiny fish in the game yet?
cause them seagulls havent caught any shinies in the DAYS That I already play the game. I literally studied tons of fishes to the max by now and literally lack only a shiny version of it.
am currently in expedition 5, so should have at least caught at least a single damn shiny fish by now, right?
what is the win 25 arcade matches acheivement?
Arcade was a little versus game that was online for a few days until it got removed. But i'm pretty sure that it will come back one day.
lol
the game erased my save data but glad it did bc i am playing from the start cuz its so addictive that i want to start from zero
I love this game but can u make the max name count slightly longer?
What level of power I need to enter to the mine?
You need to complete epic upgrades on your equipment ( attack, hp, regen )
And what if I completed it? Its a bug???
Then there should be message about mines with the button to transfer you directly to it just click on the wooden bars blocking entrance and they will be destroyed...if it does not work then I assume it is a bug
you also need to have parrot rebirb 2
I made a small donation :D it’s a lovely game. I’d really like to see an Android (tablet) version.
bro im stuck in the mine, there is no way out
Okay you can leave with the icon bottom right
I would like to say that the previous Aquarium interface was clearer about the adding of Shiny Fish. Also, I cannot find the totals anymore, only the Shiny Chance.
I don't understand what the training dummy is for.
Putting the shard upgrades into the Forge was somewhat confusing at first.
I noticed that Fleet Training and Patrol Network were capped at lower levels. I was trying to reach the max of that. :-(
Not strenght or skill points, you need to unlock the forge elsewhere. Right now I don't remember if it's unlocked at the Castle or at Sacrificial Altar.
you can see this in the fish index, but it doesn't show you the number of fish require to mastered it. Also if you have study some of that fish i'm pretty sure that the fish is placed at the end of the all category.
OMG. the best game of all time to play in a browser ive fully got all the upgrades excluding one for 15sx on sunflower feild and this game is soooo fun. i have like 26 hours of playtime and its just so adicting.
Make that the armor is equal the skin to the parrot like if its common it uses his normal color but if its uncommon it changes to the green talking parrot the rare changes to arara azul that one bird from brazil and if its epic change it to the cockatoo and finally if the armor is legendary rarity make it change the color to the african gray parrot which is the gray parrot and someone owns it which is called Apollo please do this idea
how do i save the traped guy in floor one of the expedition
You mean the bird in the building, where you get the message 'you're not strong enough'?
If so, that isn't implemented in the game yet I think
It wont load for me :(
Stuck on the infinite loading screen
bro every fish has 0% shiny chance its impossible to progress in the aquarium after this update before this update u still could catch shinies but this new update broke every shiny odd u can only catch the same shiny like a yellow bass it has 0.53% chance of shiny bc i caught a shiny and when i look into normal ones it has 0% chance on everything of being a shiny please fix the aquarium its annoying and u cant even upgrade the aquarium bc it makes impossible to catch shiny fish that u dont own u can only catch shiny with those u own i have 5 shiny fish and can only catch those and not the others it shows 0% chance
this isn't the shiny chance, this is the boost you get once you have a stored shiny and it's based on the best weight you had for this fish (not only shiny). But i agree that it's a bit unclear in the game because the thing that is boosted is shown below the number (Fishing xp in your 1st screenshot), i feel like it would make more sence to put it next to the number.
And remember that the base shiny chance is around 0.01-0.02% (you can check yours in your profile by pressing 'p'). So its normal if it takes a long time.
oohh thanks i didnt know
im still stuck with 5 shinies pls help
Just throwing a suggestion out there, now that we have this fancy fish shop, and fishing contracts requesting specific fish, changing and simplifying how luck and equipment affects catch chance. Basically once you get so much fishing luck, what rod and bait each fish suggests for best catch chance, is NOT the case. Even with fish with the same rod and bait listed, what actual rod, hook, and curse hook % varies wildly.
Maybe possibly limiting catch chance based on equipment, bait, and hook instead of having this huge giant wide spectrum?? Cause, currently trying to focus on catching individual fish, is really cumbersome and doesn't feel worth the effort trying to figure it out. I really like the concept of the Fish marketplace though!
For example here are two two fish from the Abyssal category listed with the divine rod and Abyssal Glow bait as the best catch chance
The Spine Fish.
I spent like 30 min changing rods, hooks, and the curse hook. I ended up finding that I needed the bone rod to get a 1.1% and what hook I use didn't matter.
The Abyssal Blue Jelly
I spent another 30 min doing the same process as above with a much different result. I could never get above 0.87%, and I noticed that some fish would go from 0.80% to 0.17%, while other fish's catch chance would barely change.
Equipping the bone rod with ancient hook
The Spine fish is at 1.1%
The Abyssal Blue Jelly is null with a dotted border.
Equipping the void rod with the curse hook at 45%, both the spine and blue jelly are at 0.87%.
Was thinking of trying to catch all the shiny, but think I'll go back to focus on the dungeons lol
it seems like i am having problems to find shiny fishes bc i can only capture the ones i already have and it shows the shiny chance but the others are just 0% and i cant really progress in aquarium pls help bc i have 5 shiny fishes and i can only capture the 5 shiny ones bc the rest are all 0% chance of shiny
So...
We start as a Birb eating popcorn and seeds. One hour later, we are sealing a pact with an eldritch entity with an unfathomable agenda.
Nice game.
Very cute game, but achievements seem to be not registering for me. I've been playing for about 20 minutes and I don't even have the one for getting my first popcorn
achievements aren't implemented yet
3rd idea : make a bait that is unlocked when u do evo 5 which allows u to catch shiny fishes more often but it will be a small boost
also read the others idea i gave
That got introduced yesterday! You can buy it after unlocking the fish market, using currency you get from the aquariu
I love this, excellent balancing and relaxing loop. Nice one!
