The Controller Support Beta is now live!
Ahoy, cosmic debtors! Welcome to FISH FEAR ME Friday! I, your humble captain of the post-apocalyptic waves, come to you with a new public beta!
Over the past several weeks, visiting programmer Noé Charron has been working hard on getting full controller support for the game up and running. I'm excited to report that this project is now complete and ready for beta testing! We want to make sure it's good and solid before pushing it to main, so that everyone has the best experience with the game possible.

Of note: participating in the beta will not alter your save in any way!
Controller players, be sure to let us know what you think! And non-controller players, please do the same! We're trying to make sure that everyone has the best possible experience with this update. The best place to give feedback is in the Suggestions and Bug Reporting threads:

If all goes well, we'll be pushing controller support to the main game very soon!
The eldritch goddess RAMONA appears in both FISH FEAR ME and SNAKE FARM. But do you know where the character that inspired her namesake originally comes from?
Happy fishing,

[h2]BETA CHANGE NOTES[/h2]
- Added controller navigation support to the entire game! All UI elements can now be interacted with via controller. You can play the entire game without once touching the keyboard or mouse!
- Similarly, beefed up support for mouse and keyboard players. You can finally use the scroll wheel to select bait, or use the keyboard to navigate UI menus!
- Updated the key binding menu backend to support a much more robust interaction system. The result of this is that more control rebinding options are available. Try it out!
