LOQO Bass Fishing 2024!
Well, not really, but I have been investing a lot of time and effort into this mini-game.
Last week the game was played by simply hitting the action button as the marker swings over the green bar, which is smaller depending on the difficulty of the catch...that was about it.
But since then I have greatly expanded upon it to make it feel better and be more fun, now you'll instead wear out the fish by hitting the opposite side on the D pad/directions against its movement.
If the fish is going towards the right, you hit left etc, with the markings above the meter showing the energy level of the catch, harder ones having more bars, and you can reel it in after it's depleted.
The icons on the bottom shows your equipment, although this won't be the final UI display.
Better fishing poles makes catching easier, the cord currently has no functionality, better lures attract fish faster and cut down on waiting time, the angler gloves are meant to remove the chance for tougher fishes to automatically escape, and the final icon is various baits for different fishes.
The location the screenshot is taking from is merely a testing area for the mechanic.
Where you'll be able to fish yourself will be marked by a sign you can interract with to start the mini-game, which also lets you set up your gear before casting each time.
Currently there are around 20 different species of fish, although I'll probably not go much higher than that to avoid cluttering up the inventory.
That's about it for today, I'll see you again next Tuesday!
Seems like a decent enough minigame.
ReplyDeleteWill there be any rewards for catching them (like a new Ultima monster) or will it simply be for fun?
Keep up the good work as usual.
It's interesting, will we have an aquarium in the castle or will the fish be consumable items?
