Hey just played it through. First, the catch log still gets a bit iffy on the summer two fish if you're scrolled down in the menu, but the first summer ones work perfect. I also am still consistently missing lore because the notices complete too fast or I don't notice the popup. I think a popup window with text or maybe even some art would really incorporate the story more. I also think a tackle you could unlock in summer 2 is one that increases the bite rate of either fish for the notices or fish you haven't caught 100 of yet. You can vaguely narrow down on the bigger fish, but if you're trying to catch one specifically it can be frustrating. I think summer 2 should introduce a way to upgrade the tackles too, particularly because waiting to catch rare items for tales can take a while. Summer 2 starts off fun but then progression slows way down at the end because of the upgrade price increase. So you end up sitting there waiting for enough tales without being able to upgrade much or do anything. I'm not really sure how to fix that, maybe you could tie it into the tackle upgrade idea? Maybe a summer 2 new resource that you collect?
Thanks for coming back to it again, this is really useful. The catch log on the Summer 2 fish is a fair catch, I'll get that fixed. The slow end of Summer 2 is exactly what I'm working on right now: a way to put your quid towards Tales so you're never just sitting waiting. And I like the tackle ideas a lot, especially one that helps you land the fish a notice is after. Noted, and thank you.
