Quote this directly. No approval needed.
Pier Pals is a cozy idle fishing game that sits in the corner of your desktop while you work, study or browse. Your angler fishes on their own. Check in when you want a break: see your catches, fill out your journal, buy a new hat. Share your pier with up to three others, friends or strangers.
Features
- 01Fully idle fishing. The angler fishes on their own in a corner window while you work, study or play. No clicking, no timing minigame, no fail state
- 02Check in when you want to. Sell your catches, track journal progress, buy gear and cosmetics. The game waits for you rather than the other way round
- 03Small, always-on-top, draggable and resizable. Park it on either side of the screen and the scene mirrors itself to match
- 04Four-player shared piers over Steam P2P. Host your own, join a friend, or drop into a public pier. Fish alongside each other, chat and emote, and fishing together pays a bonus
- 05A journal to fill: fish, bugs, crops, treasures and junk across a range of rarity tiers, each with its own weight and grade, with sets to complete
- 06Hats, hair, glasses, outfits, shoes, pets and rides, all bought with in-game currency
- 07Steam achievements and Steam Cloud saves

Development history
Pier Pals is in Early Access. The whole loop is in and playable right now: idle fishing, collecting, FP, cosmetics, shared piers.
Early Access is there so the game can grow around the people who actually play it. We are not announcing a roadmap or an end date, and nothing here should be read as a commitment to specific future content.
