SimAquarium, Opera application V2.3 Aug 21, 2006 10:07:28 AM

Aquarium simulation game.

WARNING: The development of this widget by me is OVER. Some parts of it or the whole widget may be broken. I cannot remove my widgets, broken or not, once they are uploaded thanks to awesome Opera Software policy ("No, you can't delete your own widgets"). So there you go.

Also from now on my code and graphics in this widget is released into public domain.


***

SimAquarium is an aquarium simulation game - you can buy and sell fish, aquarium sceneries (plants, rocks etc), lighting and other things for your aquarium!

Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2, Screenshot 3

A short help is available here

There is also a strategy guide written by rul3r (spoiler warning!)

Also there is a couple modifications of this widget made by other people, for example:
RealAquarium - more realistic rate of growth, breed etc. and a few other changes by Iragael
SimAquarium with new graphics etc by 4everdemon

You can feed your fish, play with them and do much more. To earn money you have to breed and sell fish - there is 28 different species with different characteristics, some of the fishes are very rare. With more money you can buy bigger and prettier fishes, more impressive aquarium decorations and better lighting. But the most expensive animal you can buy is not a fish - it's a dolphin! :D

The game doesn't need a lot of attention - you can run this game in the background and do something else in the same time (it is possible to reduce the number of frames per second to save processor and you can minimize the widget). The widget file takes about 1.5 MB. I would be greateful for any comments about the game balance, speed etc. of the new version!!!

Oh, by the way: you can even take the photos of your aquarium! :smile: To take a photo, simply press the photo camera button. If you like your aquarium, you can post the photos here :smile:

都是英文,看不懂啊,为啥没有个中文描述呢?

How could I go about adding a new type of fish to the game?

This widget was one of my personal favorites on old versions of Opera.
The author is right: it is broken now. I'm using Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; en) Presto/2.9.168 Version/11.51 and it does seem buggy.

Fish life doesn't decrease, fishes suddenly die, fishes don't give birth (like in a perpetual relax gaming mode), photo screenshot doesn't work. All these features were working very well before.

Too bad. Opera team, what are you doing about it?

This is an incredibly well-done widget. Thanks for all the work you put into it, grafio!

The window can't be fixed.
Often because they do not care to make her move…
But I must admit that this program is very beautiful,and thank you.

For the health and hunger bar someone on Reddit posted a fix. You have to go to C, then Users, then whatever your User account is, App Data, Local, JS, and open Statistics in notepad.

Find:

document.getElementById( "fishTableHealthBoxBar" + i ).style.width = aquarium.returnFishCondition( i ) / fishSpecies[aquarium.returnSpecNum(i)][SPEC_MAXCONDITION] * 25;
document.getElementById( "fishTableHungerBoxBar" + i ).style.width = aquarium.returnFishHunger( i ) / 4;

and change those two lines to:

document.getElementById( "fishTableHealthBoxBar" + i ).style.width = (aquarium.returnFishCondition( i ) / fishSpecies[aquarium.returnSpecNum(i)][SPEC_MAXCONDITION] * 25) + "px";
document.getElementById( "fishTableHungerBoxBar" + i ).style.width = (aquarium.returnFishHunger( i ) / 4) + "px";

Thanks to dawpa2000 from Reddit for the fix!

Все работает =) Очень понравилось. Дома рыбы, в ноуте рыбы, лепота да и только. Большое спасибо

Nothing happens, because this feature is broken.

By grafio , # Jun 3, 2011 1:57:40 PM

Never mind. I found out another way to take a photo, but if anyone can tell me what happens when I press the photo button, I'd appreciate it.

By thehacker99999 , # May 30, 2011 10:43:00 PM

Where is my screenshot?????? I have clicked the 'photo' button 1000 times but cant find the photo!!!!
Please help!! :frown:

By thehacker99999 , # May 28, 2011 11:32:45 PM

I do not know what happened, but a few months ago, my life meter for the fish has stopped working completely. :frown: My fish die all the time because I cannot tell that they are getting older.

I think this might be due to something in an Opera software "upgrade" release.

I have tried allll the simquarium versions, & it happens in all of them.

It is making me very sad, because I loved this little game!!

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this or how to let the Opera team know that THEY have broken this lovely little game?! :frown:

By TomaxBlade , # May 5, 2011 12:13:56 AM

I know that this is pretty old game, but we sometimes still play it in our IT class. Great for some distraction.

By LauraSchmidt , # Apr 22, 2011 11:16:28 AM

多谢! ( ^_^ )

By freelivingwy , # Dec 14, 2010 3:04:50 PM

Thanks very much! It's really great you liked it!!! Sorry I haven't asked your permission, anyway, but I know too little about programming yet, so the best I can do now is modifying other's widgets! And I really liked yours!
