Devlog#05: Upcoming Features

Hi everyone!

We’ve got a couple of cozy new additions to share in this latest dev update. Whether you're a fan of slow, peaceful fishing or want to bring your own music into the bar - this one’s for you.

🎣 New: Focus Fishing Mode
You can now activate Focus Fishing when entering a fishing spot!
In this mode:
  • Your character will stay in place and can’t move until you manually cancel.
  • The fishing timer remains the same: 30 seconds = 1 fish.
  • A new mini-game mechanic has been added: a hook moves up and down inside a gauge.
  • Tap the icon or press the keybind to interact.
Hitting different areas on the gauge gives you progress boosts:
  • Normal hit: -5 sec
  • Perfect hit: -10 sec
  • Miss: Nothing happens (it won’t increase or decrease the progress time)
There are no new fish types in this version - just a new way to enjoy the current system!


🎵 New: Record Player & Custom Music You can now import your own music into the game! 🎧
We’ve added a record player feature that works just like a simple music app, allowing you to edit your playlist and set the vibe however you like. Whether it’s chill lofi, jazzy beats, or your favorite playlist, it’s your bar, your vibe.

Important notice: excessive importing tracks may impact the game performance.



That’s all for now! Thanks again for playing and for all your feedback. It helps us so much as we continue shaping Lakeside Bar into something special. 💛

Let us know what kind of music you’ll be playing at your bar!
