About this game
In The Fish Corner, you run your own cozy pet fish shop and collect many unique breeds.
Decorate your rooms and storefront, greet customers, and negotiate fair prices. Choose which fish you want to sell and which ones you want to keep for yourself. Become a careful breeder, a dedicated collector, or focus on earning big profits and growing your shop. It’s your story.
Care, Breed, Sell.
A big part of the game takes place right inside your aquariums. Every fish has its own unique needs — but one thing applies to all of them: clean water and regular feeding are essential for keeping them healthy and happy. Only when the conditions are right will your fish feel safe enough to breed.
Customize your aquarium the way you want
One of the core features of the game is designing your aquariums exactly to your taste. Place plants, rocks, and decorations wherever you like and turn every tank into your own little masterpiece. Your creativity is the only limit.
What You Can Look Forward To:
100+ fish varieties to discover
Decorate your tanks and adjust them to each fish’s needs
50+ tank decorations and items
Expand your shop as your business grows
Place tanks in your home and watch them in real time
Care for your fish and watch them grow, breed, and thrive
We’re still in early development, and a demo is coming soon. If you’d like to share ideas, help test the game, or tell us which fish breeds you want to see, feel free to join our Discord!
We’re currently working on:
A shop system with live tank views
Tank gameplay (feeding, cleaning, caring)
A breeding system where each fish has its own needs
A living economy with events
A house system where you can keep your favorite fish
If this sounds like your kind of game, wishlist it and follow us on Steam, we’d love to hear your feedback! :)

Dev Update!
Okay, first of all, let's address the fish in the room: Yes, we delayed the release.And the fact that some of you noticed is honestly one of the greatest compliments we could receive. We are developing this game every day, and sometimes it really feels like we are the only people actually playing it. The fact that some of you played our demo, joined our playtest, and are now waiting for the full release is an incredible honor.And, in a way, that's also exactly why we delayed it.The game has grown a lot over the past few months and so has the attention around it. Our team has grown from 2 to 5 people, and we keep noticing little bits here and there that we know we can improve. We don't want to disappoint any of you, and we really want to make sure we release a wonderful game that you can enjoy for more than just a few hours.Fortunately (or unfortunately), we don't have the financial runway of a AAA studio, so rest assured: the game IS coming!For those of you who aren't participating in the playtest, I want to share a little bit about what we've been working on, which new features have already made it into the game, and what's still to come.New fish! 🐟First of all: new fish! New species and breeds have been implemented, and we've also added new animations.Some fish are completely new to the game, like our discus, while others have received a full rework, like our guppies. Our bettas also got a makeover and speaking of bettas, that brings us perfectly to one of our bigger new features.Fish are no longer compatible with every species!This means you can't just place any fish together in the same tank anymore. Bettas, for example, are territorial and will chase fish they don't like. Tiger barbs, angelfish, and other species now have their own compatibility rules too.So yes, you'll have to think a little more carefully about who gets to be roommates.Your shop received some upgrades!World Events are now active and can influence fish prices, customer behavior, and your shop ...Read full article on Community Announcements (ninetoplay)AnnouncementsOfficial
