About this game
Fishing for the corners of your day
Deskwaters is a small, charming fishing companion that lives in your desktop.
Bites happen on a realistic and organic schedule, weighted by time of day and weather. When a fish bites, you get a gentle chime and a window to react.
While you work, study, game or browse, the boat is always there, anchored at the bottom of your screen.
Cast a line between meetings. Get Deskwaters and bring a little water to your workday.
Features:
🎣 Always-on-top desktop companion. Lives in a tiny transparent window on your taskbar. Stays out of the way of
everything else.

catch. Every species has its own illustrated journal entry.
