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:

Another bug: the colored lightbulbs that you've bought are not stored. I don't know if this is intentional.

The speed "bug" is by design :wink: The second bug is a small one (you can't buy the fish, because you don't have 100 sell a fish and you will see the correct money count) - I will fix it soon. Thanks for the bug reports!! :wink:

Another "bug" is that the game speed is not saved. Also, after reloading, I always have , but I cannot buy e.g. a fish for .
