Aug 27, 2013 Fish Always Online (FISHAO) is launched in 17 languages. GamoVation launched its new real-time multiplayer fish game FISHAO today, playable via web browser and Facebook. The Dutch game developer GamoVation has been working on the development of the new game for two and a half years.

We have some exciting news!
We are introducing a new special kind of fish, and a new special way to unlock them. The first one of it’s kind is a fish called Loof Lirpa, which is the fish in this picture, a rare tropical hybrid.

Fishao Online Game

There are many fish in Fishao that are hard to catch. This fish has actually been in the game for some time, however, so far no one has caught the Loof Lirpa. It’s a “hidden fish”, which is an old idea we had, but didn’t implement until about a month ago. Hidden fish means that it will become unlocked for you if you perform a certain task. But there will be no notification for the unlocking and you will not see it in your Fishdex until you catch it. That is why we call it “Hidden”. We got inspiration for the idea from the way you access Lost Valley. If people like this idea we will introduce more of them.

Since it’s the first hidden fish, we will tell you how to catch it.

This is how you catch it: At Pinheira Beach there is a fish market. You must run around the Fish Market building 5 times, starting and ending at the door. This unlock lasts for 10 minutes. So you will have 10 minutes to fish for it. After the 10 minutes you can simply run around the building another 5 times to unlock it for 10 more minutes. It doesn’t matter in which direction you circle the building. You just need to pass all corners of the building. Remember to check the time so you know when to renew the unlock.

You can only catch it at Pinheira Beach. This fish is always active, but you have to figure out the bait for yourself 🙂

It is active right now, so what are you waiting for? 🙂

GamoVation presents new real-time online multiplayer game 'FISH ALWAYS ONLINE' (FISHAO)

Fishao News Today

GamoVation launched its new real-time multiplayer fish game FISHAO today, playable via web browser and Facebook. The Dutch game developer GamoVation has been working on the development of the new game for two and a half years. In FISHAO, the players spend time in a number of fishing areas and just as in the real world each area offers different species of fish. Not all territories are readily accessible: some areas have to be unlocked before a player can enter them. The aim of the game is to complete daily objectives, catch all fish and complete the Fishdex, play in online tournaments, make friends, play mini games together and countless other daily activities.

GamoVation, a young group of Dutch game entrepreneurs and publishers, was recently chosen for the '25 under 25' by the Dutch Sprout magazine. A specific choice was made for an accessible game, focused mainly on social gamers. FISHAO is a game in which gamers can fish, walk around and chat together.

Because of its use of a beta version professionals and journalists in the game world have already compared FISHAO to Nintendo’s hit games Animal Crossing and Pokémon. The urge to fish and collect in the Pokémon series combined with the nonchalant carefree life in Animal Crossing corresponds to FISHAO's aims. Just as in real life the game has an advanced day and night system. Daimy Stroeve, co-founder of GamoVation: 'When it gets dark at the player's home, it is also dark in FISHAO. Can a fish only be caught in the mornings? Or in the month of January? Then there's a good chance that this will be the same in FISHAO', says Stroeve with a smile.

GamoVation has a number of major updates planned in the short term. In the autumn you will be able to sell the caught fish on the fish market and the player can furnish his own house to his own taste by shopping at the local Deco Shop. The GamoVation team will continue to add new features to the game in the coming years.

International partnerships with Big Fish Games, Inc. and Roundgames

GamoVation's marketing strategy is mainly based on collaborative ventures. Any publisher, large or small, can promote FISHAO using the affiliate system developed in-house. In exchange the publishers receive part of the proceeds from the players that they recruit. 'We do not reward publishers per newly recruited player, but by letting them share in the proceeds. This is a win-win situation for both parties because of the purchase of virtual products', according to Joppe Houpt.

FISHAO is available free via https://www.fishao.com , Facebook and shortly also via a number of large national and international gaming websites. At this time GamoVation has also entered into countless collaboration agreements, such as with http://www.roundgames.com, also chosen by Sprout Magazine in 2009 for the '25 under 25' and with Big Fish Games, Inc., the world's largest producer of casual games, where it will be found for free on http://www.BigFishGames.com. Other International parties are also getting involved with GamoVation. 'Big publishers' according to Joppe Houpt, GamoVation's general director. 'Game networks with several million visitors per month. All in all an exciting development'.
