Devlog 07 - Translation & System Balancing (Breeding & Fish)

Hello.

In today's devlog we are still talking about balancing. In the previous devlog we discussed the system upkeep in ponds and equipment, this time balancing for fish and breeding. There is a discussion about translation too.

Unlock Fish


We made a slight change to the flow to unlock new fish. We try to balance the system by add cost if you want to unlock new fish. Besides having to reach a certain level, you need to buy a license for the fish to be unlocked. The player also needs to pay a sum of money each month for each fish license he buys. It's like a tax for the fish license.



Breeding Cost


For the current version, you can use the breeding feature when you reach level 7. You will earn breeding points when the fish reach level 3. With these breeding points, you can use the breeding feature and make your basic fish status increase.

We changed the concept slightly by adding costs to breeding. So besides using breeding points, you need to pay some money to use breeding feature. As with breeding points, the amount of money that needs to be paid will increase each time you breed the same fish.



Localizor


Translation is one of the ways that we use to make a collaboration with the community. We already made a thread about community translation in the discussion before (you can check it here).

Right now, we're doing a collaboration with a translation platform that will make the flow of community translation become easier. The platform name is Localizor. With Localizor, you just need to sign up and choose your translation language. We have prepared all the words that need to be translated. Just translate the words into your chosen language and let the community vote if your translation is good enough or not. We hope with this kind of way, we can add more language to Aquaculture Land faster so you can play Aquaculture Land with your own language.

In the Localizor, you can also translate other games like Academia, Overcrowd, Airport CEO, and others. You can collect some points (from votes you get from community) and redeem steam key.

For your information, the developer that creates Localizor is the same as the developer that creates Startup Company.

But if you don't want to use Localizor and still want to help us with translation, feel free to tell us in the community translation thread.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We try to give system upkeep and routine expenses to some features to make the system more balanced. Especially the economic system. We got feedback that said the economic system is still not balanced enough. It's still too easy to earn money, income and expenses are still not in balance state and something like that. That's why we try to balance the system because we want to make Aquaculture Land is enjoying but still challenging to play.

We will end today's devlog here. As usual, if you have suggestions or feedback, just tell us in the comment section below or in the discussion. We will always wait for your feedback and review for the game. We will do our best to make Aquaculture Land better.

Have a nice weekend.
Cheers!

Update Patch version 0.7.8 (Build 4)

Hello everyone, bangsawankaya here!

We have a little patch for the 0.7.8 version. We encounter some problems in version 0.7.8 when we developing the feature for future updates as stated in our devlog. So, we make the patch here and give it to you so you wouldn't encounter the same problem.

We also add a new approach to the UX for creating a pond. We added tooltip to tell you what makes you can't build a pond because we found out some players still didn't understand why they can't build it.



Another little change that we make is to change the pond design to prepare another future update which is fish in the pond with their respective color . That's why the design is using more transparent water, and you will see the fish with their beautiful color underwater. This update will need a test too, so be patient about that :D



We also change the opening scene. The old opening scene is making people think that the first worker "Gard" is the main character (because he drives the car. etc). We wanted to change that image so we try to change the opening to show how big is our farm and you can use that to build a business. Maybe we will change it again when we have better options. For now, we'll use the new one.

As usual, our changelog is down below and If you have feedback and suggestions about today’s update, feel free to tell us in the comment section below or in the discussion.

And the last for today, I personally wanted to say many thanks to all of you that already played our game, give us your honest review about the game, many suggestions and feedback, and other things that help us to make Aquaculture Land become a better game. Your support and review are very important to the development of the game. I will wait for your other feedback and review for the game in the future :D

See you on the next updates :).
Cheers!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Devlog 06 - System Upkeep (Pond & Equipment)

Hello.

Today's devlog will talk about the upkeep system, one of the ways that we use to balance the Aquaculture Land system. We are still trying to make the system more balanced so that it is more enjoyable to play. This time, the upkeep system that we tried to implement in the game is upkeep in ponds and equipment.

Pond Upkeep


In the current version, weekly expenses that charged to the player are only from the worker's salary. To balance income and expenses, we try to add upkeep to the pond in the form of maintenance money for the pond. Calculation of upkeep that needs to be paid from one pond based on the size of the pond. So, the bigger or more ponds you owned, the more expenses will be spent by the player for the upkeep system.



Equipments Upkeep


For pond equipment, we balance the price and status of each equipment. We do this to make each equipment different from one another, not only in terms of price but also in terms of usage. Just like ponds, we also add upkeep to equipment. Upkeep that needs to be paid for equipment based on how expensive the equipment you have. So the more expensive equipment you have, the more upkeep you will need to pay. But the more expensive the price of equipment, the better the status of the equipment.



We will continue to balance the system for the next few weeks. We will try to ensure that the next version is balanced enough before updating the game. We hope after we update the game with a more balanced system, it will make you enjoy playing Aquaculture Land.

So, that's it for today's devlog. If you have suggestions or feedback, feel free to tell us in the discussion or in the comment section below.

Have a great weekend.

Devlog 05 - Order Demand & Market Demand

Hi,
How is your day?

This week is still about balancing for the Aquaculture Land system. As we said in the last devlog, besides we're focused on redesigning the core gameplay, we will also focus on balancing in several things. One of them is the economic system that exists in the Aquaculture Land.

We talked about market demand last week, today we will discuss it again and we will talk about order demand, balancing on customer orders.

Order Demand


Customer orders feature is one way that you can use to get money in Aquaculture Land. When we later add market demand to the game, we think that players who did grinding by selling fish to the market will turn to customer orders. Therefore we need to do balancing for customer orders.

We will do balancing on how often customer orders will come and the distribution of ordered fish will also be more adjusted to the state of the player at that time. The weight of the fish that needs to be met, the time for order completion, the quality of the fish, and the things that affect the order will be balanced.

For now, customer orders are impressed as a feature that is used only to level up. Without punishment when a player fails to fulfill an order, players can take any order or reject it without hesitation. Therefore, another thing we will do for balancing is to add deadlines to each order. If the player cannot complete the order on time, that will affect the next orders.

We will also plan to categorize and make customers, who will send orders, have a characteristic. We get this idea from @convey who told us in the discussion forum. One example is a customer who works at a luxury restaurant will give orders in the form of high quality with a small amount of fish but has a very short time for completion.





We hope with giving balancing to the orders, the game will be more challenged for the players

Market Demand


Market demand is one of balancing methods that we will apply to the market to reduce player that continuously sells only one type of fish to the market to easily obtain large amounts of profit.



If the player too often sells the fish to the market, then the price of the fish will gradually decrease and will not benefit the player. You can check market demand condition in the market menu. If the graph is red, that means the fish price is decreasing. The fish price will increase if you do not sell the fish to the market within a certain time.

With this market demand, we want to make players do not only focus on getting profits through one type of fish but a variety of it depending on the market demand.

We also do balancing on the market price to make players feel more challenged and come up with more varied strategies to keep their farm running and keep getting the best profit.


We are aware that it will take a little while for everything to become balance. Therefore, in the future, there is a possibility that we will continue to make adjustments for things that we feel are not balance. We will try to make this game more challenging to play.

So if you feel that for the current version there are still things that have not been balanced, you can tell us. And also if there is feedback or suggestions about the game, feel free to tell us in the comments section below or in the discussion.

Okay, that’s it for today’s devlog. There are still a lot of things we need to do for the game but we will do our best to make the game better.

Have a good day.
Cheers!

Devlog 04 - Market Demand & Reliability Status of Pond Equipment

Hi guys.
How's your day?

For this week, we are still balancing the Aquaculture Land system, especially for pond equipment and market. We made little adjustments to how the market works and also the status of pond equipment. So you can be more challenged and enjoy playing Aquaculture Land. What are the adjustments made? Let's take a look at this update.

Market Demand
One way to get money in Aquaculture Land (for now) is to sell your fish to the market. Actually, to get a large amount of money through the market is quite simple. You just need to nurture the fish that has the highest maximum selling rate, then after the right moment (when the fish has a good market price) you only need to sell the fish through the market. Due to the absence of reciprocity from that, we think the player will only focus on nurturing one type of fish (fish with the highest selling price). Therefore, to make the player not focus on just one fish, we come with market demand idea.

With the market demand feature, the more often a fish is sold to the market, the lower its selling price becomes. So, if the player only focuses on selling 1 type of fish to the market, the less money he gets from selling that fish. We hope with this adjustment, the fish that will be used by the player will be more varied.

Reliability Status of Pond Equipment
We also make adjustments to pond equipment. We plan to provide reliability status to pond equipment. So, in addition to doing maintenance on electricity sources, later players will also do maintenance on pond equipment.

The main purpose of giving reliability status to pond equipment is to increase the upkeep that needs to be done by the player. Because for now, we realize the upkeep that can be done by players on the existing system is still too little.

So, later on, for electricity sources will have two kinds of maintenance, refuel and repairs. While for pond equipment, player only needs to do repairs for the maintenance.



In addition to the two things above, we also plan to balance customer orders and all matters related to income and expenses.

A few days ago, we got feedback that said that Aquaculture Land is still too easy because to get a large amount of income is very easy, but it is not matched with equal expenses. And we also agree with that. We also get some suggestions from @SpeedyGarret and @convey about balancing that can be done to income and expenses. And one of them is about balancing customer orders. So for future updates, besides staying focused on redesigning our core gameplay, we will also be balancing in several things.

With this devlog, we also change the game build version into 0.7.8(Build 3). In this new version, we have a little change with the BGM. We try to make a playlist of BGM for the game. So you will not only hear one song all the time, but you will hear several different songs in turn.

If you guys have some suggestions or feedback about today's update or Aquaculture Land, feel free to tell us in the discussion section or click discuss button below. We always make a note for every suggestion and feedback you give us.

Have a good day guys.

Update 0.7.8 (Build 2) - More Stable and Optimized Build



Hi guys
Long time no see. How are you?

This past few weeks we're focused on fixing bug and optimized the experimental build. We try to make the experimental build become more stable. And finally, in this new update, the current build is stable enough. We move the current build into the main build so you guys can try it out. You can try all features from the experimental build in this latest update and of course more optimized and stable. Besides the features, we give another touch to the current build. What is that another touch? Let's check today's update out!

Fishing Pond


We got feedback that said it takes a long time to earn some money from selling fish because you need to wait for a while until your fish is big enough to be sold. While you're waiting, you won't get any income. That's why we make this fishing pond feature so while you waiting for your money from selling fish, you will still get some income from your fishing pond. Thing to remember, only level 2 fish (and above) which can be catch by visitor.

In experimental build version, visitor arrival will make the game laggy. For this update, we already did some optimized so you won't be bother by lag anymore.



Breeding


Breeding feature is a feature that you can use to increase your fish basic status. With this feature you can increase growth speed, fish weight, and fish quality. You can make a superior fish with breeding feature.

Only your fish seed status will be increased after breeding process. If you have the same fish in your pond with your breeding fish, your fish status in your pond will not increase.

Thank you so much to @Arburtus, @Rayune, and @Sardine for giving us an idea to make this feature.



This feature will help you reach level 2 fish faster and heavier than the previous generation. So you can harvest your fish earlier with heavier fish. But for using this feature, you need resource called breeding points. You can get this breeding point from nurturing your fish. Every time your fish grows, you will get breeding points.



For previous version, you can get breeding points from level 1 fish. But on this update, we did some balance and make only level 3 fish (and above) that produce breeding points. So whether you sell your biggest fish or use it to produce some amount of breed points, you choose it ːsteamhappyː

Storage


In the previous version, every time you harvest your fish, your fish box will be lying on your farm. Sometimes your fish box will block your worker path and look like a mess. Thank you to @Amnaa and @lucatolo that come with storage feature suggestion. With this storage feature, your fish box will be automatically stored into storage so make it more organized and make your farm look neater.

The other good thing from storage feature is when you want to make your fish bigger (fish that already stored) or if you want to move your fish into another pond, you can put back your fish box into your pond.

We also add a fish box counter on storage. So, with this counter, you will know how many fish boxes you have in storage without always open the storage to check it.



French Language


For current version, we add new French language. Thank you so much for @CdriX for helping us with French translation this far. You can only change the game language from setting on main menu.

There will be some texts that have a smaller size than the others because when the text is translated from English to French, it becomes longer. In this new update, we use a different font with experimental build version. With this new font, the smaller text will be better and more legible than experimental build version.



If you want to add your own language into the game, you can check Community Translation Thread in the discussion section for the details. We can’t do it alone. Let’s do some collaboration!

Game Tutorial


We finally add basic tutorial to the game. With this tutorial, we want to give a clue to our players what they need to do and pay attention to. Because we saw some people don't have any clue what to do. Especially for fish status and how to manage it. The tutorial will be the basic action you need to do for one loop gameplay, from building ponds to selling fish.



Resource Bubble, Electric Item Sign, and Electric Connection Toggle UI


We add little touch to toggle pond and fish info UI. We add resource bubble, electric item sign, and electric connection toggle.

Basically this toggle UI will be used to make the object visible or invisible. Resource bubble is for every resource that has bubble appearance (like breeding points), electric item sign will cover every sign on electric item (like on off sign), and electric connection is for connection between electricity source and other items.



Balancing


We changed some terms that we use for fish status. We change pond density into living space, noise into acoustic comfort, fish waste into fish waste free and etc. We're doing that to make better meaning for the pond status with the status bar.

We also do the balancing on the status of pond equipment and its prices. We do that balancing so that one equipment and another will become more useful and can be used evenly. We also do some balancing on fish status, especially on their acoustic comfort. In the previous version, some of the fish statuses are too difficult to handle. For this reason, we adjust it again so the fish that raised by the player can be more diverse and the level of difficulty perceived by the player is better.

For worker, we changed their status. We decided to delete the tenacity status. We also doing some adjustment to their status points because in the previous version, their status points are not balances enough. So, in this current version, more good your worker status, more expensive his hire price and salary.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally, after a few weeks, we can update the game from experimental build into version 0.7.8. We hope with this new version, our players that haven't had time to try experimental build, they can try the new feature in this version.

Just like our plan, after this update, we will be more focus on redesign Aquaculture Land core design. From all of feedback and suggestion we received, we feel like there is something wrong with the core design. And we need to do something about it. Therefore, after this we will rarely make significant updates. But don't worry, we will still make a list for your suggestions and feedback. Maybe we will find an idea about the redesign from your feedback and suggestions. We will also still update about the bugfix. For the details about our next move, you can check this thread

We also give you the changelog from today's update down below so you will know more about the update details. If you have feedback and suggestions about today’s update, feel free to tell us in the comment section below or in the discussion.

We want to say many thanks to all of you guys that already played our game, give us your honest review about the game, many suggestions and feedback, and other things that help us to make Aquaculture Land become a better game. Thank you for all of your support. And we hope you will still support us from now on.

See you next time guys.

Update 0.7.8(EX 5) - French Language and Tutorial



Hi guys
How's your day?

This week, we bring you some updates for experimental build. Yes, we still working with experimental build because the current build is still rather unstable. We already find the problem that makes the game crash and already trying to fix it in this update. We also add tutorial for the basic action so you will know what to do and what things you can do in the game. And finally, in this version you can play Aquaculture Land with French language.

French Language


First of all, we want to say thank you so much for @CdriX with French translation help. That really helps us.

You can select French language from tab language in the setting menu. The thing to remember, you can only change the language from setting on main menu.

There will be some texts that have a smaller size than the others because when the text is translated from English to French, it becomes longer. If you think the smaller text is annoying or not good enough, just tell us. We will find the other way to show it.

For your information, we already make community translation thread. Community translation thread is a place If you want to add your own language and help us with the game translation. Go check the thread and let's do some collaboration!



Game Tutorial


Finally, we add a tutorial for the game. We still trying to figure out how's the best way to show the tutorial. We decided to add the tutorial now because we saw some people that play our game and they don't have any clue what to do. Especially for fish status and how to manage it. The tutorial will be the basic action you need to do for one loop gameplay, from building ponds to selling fish.

We hope with this tutorial, it will make the new players easier to play Aquaculture Land.



Fish Box Counter for Storage


We give a little touch for storage by adding a fish box counter on it. We got this idea from @CdriX, thank you.

The idea comes from the behavior to open the storage just to check how many fish boxes you already have. And we think it's rather annoying from player to always open the storage just to check the number of their fish box. That's why we decided to add this counter. So, after this, you will know how many fish boxes in your storage without always open it to check.



We hope in the next update we can move everything to the main build. After that, we will be trying to focus on redesign our core game. Because we still have a problem with it. We already make a discussion for our next plan in the "What's Next" discussion thread.

For this update, please use your save file from 0.7.7 version. You can't use your save file from 0.7.8 version because you will encounter some errors. So, if you want to play this version, you can load your save file from 0.7.7 version or play it from the beginning.

We give you the changelog about today's update down below, so you can check for the details. If you have suggestions or feedback, as always feel free to tell us on discussion.

Teaser Update - French Language & Community Translation



Hello.
How are you?

Today's update is a small talk about what we already worked in this past week and something new about translation that we want to try. We will also talk about problems we're facing when developing Aquaculture Land. We won't talk the details today, because we just want to give you a teaser about it. Without further ado, let's check today's update!

French Language


For this past week, we're trying to implement French language into the game. Thank you so much for @CdriX for helping us with the French translation. We really appreciate it. There are still things that we need to adjust in the game for French translation. We need to check and make sure every word that has been translated is good and suitable for every component of the game. If everything is going well, you can try to use French language in the next update.



Experimental Build


This week, we're focused on optimizing the experimental build and try to make it more stable. After this build is optimized and stable enough to play, we will bring it to the main build. So, if you already try the experimental build and found any bugs or maybe you have suggestions or feedback about the new features or anything, please tell us about it. That will really help us to make the game better.

From now on, every update that still unstable and not optimized yet, we plan to use experimental build. So, you can still try the newest version and give us your feedback and suggestions without waiting for the update on the main build.

We will update the experimental build soon.

Community Translation Thread


We got feedback and suggestions that ask to add another language (other than English and Indonesian) to the game. That's why we're planning to add more language to Aquaculture Land. We want to reach out more players out there that not use English for their main language.

We already made a thread in the discussion about "Community Translation". Community Translation will be the place if you want to join and help us with translating the game into another language you want. You can check it here.

What's Next Thread


For now, we still focus to make the game better and more fun to play. Because we got feedback that said the game still lacks of something that makes the game is not good enough. Even after we added new features to the game. We realized that there is something wrong with the core design. And we need to do something about it. We already make a thread about this problem and our next plan in the discussion section.

We want to say thank you to all of you that already support us. There are still a lot of things to do for Aquaculture Land. We will do our best to make the game good and fun enough to play. Please keep supporting us from now on.
