It's been a long time coming due to summer getting in the way of working full time.
Anyway, v2.0.0 Beta (build 16) has just gone live.
There's been a fair amount of changes that you probably won't notice. Here's a little summary of what's changed that you will notice.
Netting the fish - You can now net the fish. Press the L key on keyboard or the X button on controller. You'll notice your arm now holds the net, when you press the button again you'll drop the net, it doesn't matter where it is when you pick it back up, it'll appear in your hand, this was a conscious decision to try and eliminate frustration when netting fish. Also, you need to be holding the landing net in order to net the fish. It will be no longer possible for a fish to be netted without you holding it.
Releasing a fish - This is still a work in progress. After netting a fish, the screen will fade out and the fish will be in your unhooking mat/cradle. To view the fish walk over to it and you can look at it. When you want to release the fish press the I key or B button. At the moment looking at and releasing the fish is missing a lot of features but at least you can catch and release fish now.
Playing fish - A lot of tweaks have been made to the way fish fight, please leave your feedback in the community as we'd love to hear what you think.
