Aquascapers News

Hello, Aquascapers!

In the latest version of Aquascape Simulator, we have implemented an exciting game mechanic to encourage exploration and discovery of new areas. We understand that the thrill of uncovering resources is an integral part of the gameplay experience. With our Respawn Mechanic, every item you gather will have the chance to reappear in the same location, allowing you to revisit previously explored areas and discover new gathering spots.

[h3]The Respawn Mechanic Explained[/h3]
Here's how it works: Once you've collected an item from a particular location, such as near a large tree, along the edge of a stream, or around a prominent rock, the item will temporarily disappear from that spot. However, it will eventually respawn after a certain period of time, giving you another opportunity to gather it.

[h3]Your Guide to Exploration: The Enviro Map Menu[/h3]
To aid you in your exploration, we have included the Enviro Map Menu. Within this menu, you can easily track the availability of items across various locations. The items that have not yet respawned will be marked with transparent icons, indicating that they are currently unavailable. This feature empowers you to plan your gathering expeditions, ensuring that you're always aware of the status of each item.



[h3]Embrace the Dynamic Aquascaping World[/h3]
By implementing this respawn mechanic, we aim to foster a sense of adventure and encourage players to explore different areas of the game world. As you traverse the lush landscapes, be sure to keep an eye out for new gathering spots and hidden gems that may have respawned since your last visit. Each location holds its own unique set of hardscapes, plants, and fish, waiting to be discovered and collected.

Remember, patience is key. If you arrive at a previously visited spot and find that the item you're looking for is not there, don't be discouraged. It simply means that the respawn timer has not yet elapsed. Take this opportunity to explore other areas, diversify your gathering locations, and expand your knowledge of the game world.

Aquascape Simulator invites you to embark on an exciting journey of exploration, resource gathering, and creativity. Through the respawn mechanic, we hope to provide a dynamic and ever-changing environment that rewards curiosity and encourages players to venture into uncharted territories.

So, grab your tablet, consult the Enviro Map Menu, and set out to uncover the bountiful treasures that await you.

Hello, Aquascape Simulator players!

We're thrilled to bring you an exciting update that enhances your gaming experience. In our continuous effort to refine the game and make it even more immersive, we have made a minor yet impactful change to the main menu.

Previously, the main menu featured a static image background, but we felt that it lacked the dynamic and interactive elements that could truly engage players. As a result, we decided to revamp the main menu by introducing a captivating 3D environment as the background.

[h3]Old Main Menu - Static Image Background[/h3]


[h3]New Main Menu - Captivating 3D Environment[/h3]


This update may seem minor, but it adds a whole new level of visual appeal and interactivity to the game. Now, as you navigate the main menu, you'll be greeted by a lively and vibrant 3D scene that reflects the essence of your aquascape business.

One of the highlights of this update is the introduction of subtle animations that breathe life into the main menu. You'll notice gentle movements, such as grass swaying in the breeze or the character doing stretches , creating a more realistic and captivating environment. These animations add depth and immersion, making your experience more visually engaging.

We believe that this small change will have a big impact on your overall enjoyment of Aquascape Simulator. The dynamic 3D environment creates a sense of presence and sets the tone for your aquascaping adventure right from the moment you launch the game.

Thank you for your continued support as we work to refine and enhance Aquascape Simulator. We're excited to embark on this journey with you, and we can't wait to see how the new main menu enriches your gaming experience.

As you progress through the game, you'll unlock various themes and design styles, each with its own set of rules and requirements. Learning and applying these guidelines will not only help you craft visually pleasing designs but also deepen your understanding of real-world aquascape evaluation.

Mastering the art of aquascape design might seem a bit challenging at first, but no worries! We provide in-game resources and educational materials, including tips, tutorials, and interactive lessons, to help you get a handle on the fundamentals and create some exceptional aquascapes.



Aquascape Valuation adds an exciting layer of depth and challenge to Aquascape Simulator. It encourages you to explore different design styles, experiment with unique combinations, and continuously refine your skills to meet the expectations of your clients.

Hello, Aquascapers!

We’re excited to introduce a cool feature in Aquascape Simulator: Auctions! This feature opens up exciting opportunities for financial success while giving you a platform to flaunt your stunning aquascape. You can auction off your aquascapes anytime, even if you're not currently working on any auction projects.

[h3]Initiating Auctions - From Aquarium to Bidding Stage[/h3]
Starting an auction in Aquascape Simulator involves several simple steps. First, make sure you've got a fish tank in your home base. Then, pick the substrate to create the perfect base for your aquascape. With that done, let your creativity flow and design the aquascape you want to put up for auction. When you're happy with your creation, just hit that "Put on Auction" button.

If you already have an aquascape in your home base, you can hop into the aquarium and click "Put On Auction." Just remember, to qualify for an auction, your aquascape must have at least one stone and one plant.



Once you've initiated an auction, you're in for an exciting bidding war. Five enthusiastic bidders will vie for your magnificent aquascape, each making an offer based on their preferences. They'll state how much they're willing to pay for your creation. As the creator, you hold the power to carefully evaluate these offers and decide which one best suits your vision.



Auctions are a cool addition to your aquascape business, complementing the core client projects. By combining earnings from Client Projects with the money you can make from auctions, you'll have a well-rounded and successful aquascape business.

Thanks for hanging out with us today. If you have any questions about the features we've talked about or anything else, feel free to drop a comment or join our forum discussion. We really appreciate your feedback and look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, Aquascapers!

Clients entrust you with their dreams and aspirations, seeking your expertise to transform their spaces into captivating aquatic wonders.

Project Licenses reflect your aquascape development and design capabilities. They come in various grades, from C to S, indicating the complexity of the aquascapes you’ll create. As you progress and unlock higher-grade licenses, more demanding projects become available, requiring your expertise.



To unlock higher-grade Project Licenses, you’ll need to earn and accumulate Reputation Points.

As your Reputation Points increase, so does your access to more advanced and rewarding projects.

Unlocking a higher-grade Project License is a significant achievement. It signifies your progression as an aquascape designer, granting you the opportunity to tackle ambitious projects that will leave clients in awe. Once you've unlocked a higher-grade license, you can conveniently purchase it through your tablet or PC, signaling your readiness to embark on a new level of aquascape mastery.

It's important to note that projects with grade B and A will require you to recreate aquascape designs based on pictures provided by the client. This adds an exciting twist to the gameplay, as you'll have the opportunity to replicate and enhance existing designs, showcasing your attention to detail and ability to bring visions to life.

To manage your projects effectively, Aquascape Simulator provides you with a user-friendly interface accessible via your PC. The Inbox section is where you'll find incoming project requests eagerly awaiting your attention.
