Developer Diaries: User Generated Competitions. Part 1

Hello, anglers! Its been a while since we last shared with you what we are working on. Today wed like to talk about new functionality that is waiting for you in the upcoming release in the first half of November. This time we prepared for you a new type of Fishing Planets competitive events called Custom Competitions. Unlike all regular (automated) competitions, Custom Competitions are User Generated Competitions and will be created by the anglers themselves. Players will also be able to fine-tune and adjust the multiple settings of these events, including rules, locations, time schedules, and participants. We designed a whole array of new tools to make it more comfortable for you to create and host just the perfect angling competitions and set numerous parameters to your preferences:

Templates - players can either choose from one of the preexisting competitive templates, or create a completely new competition.
Formats - there will be a number of formats for user competitions, depending on the type of competition:
- Free For All - players aim at getting the highest personal score.
- Team Competition - participants are divided into two teams, and each player aims at getting the highest total team score.
- Duel - a one-on-one competition format.
Privacy:
- Open competition - the event is open to anyone.
- Private competition - the event is password protected.
Entry Fee - competition fee for those who wish to participate.
Initial Prize Pool - the amount of reward that the competition Host sets for the prize.
Waterway for hosting the competition.
Player LVLs that are admissible for participation.
Maximum number of participants.
Setting for Duration and Start of the competition.
- Manual Start - competition begins after the Host starts it manually.
- Scheduled Start - competition begins automatically at a set time.
Game Time/Weather tuning.
Qualifying Fish.
Count of score points - either total fish caught or fish in the Keepnet.
Set of score keeping Rule sets.
Tackle Types that are required to use in order to earn score.
Choice of admissible equipment.

Sponsored Competitions Aside from standard User Generated Competitions, in the future there will also be Sponsored Competitions. These competitions have some special characteristics and might have unique sponsor rewards. Thats all for now! Well share more details on how this functionality would work in our next issue of DD this Friday. Stay tuned!

Fishing Planet is a unique and highly realistic online first-person multiplayer fishing simulator developed by avid fishing enthusiasts for anglers to bring you the full thrill of actual angling! Choose your lures, make your trophy catches, discover new possibilities and sharpen your real angling skills anywhere, anytime with your friends!

The game is FREE to play and just a download away!

Aside from a rare few, there were no decent fishing games created over the whole 30-year history of game development. And not a single one in recent years! Don’t we anglers deserve better than that?

Fishing Planet decided to set this historic injustice right and finally make a game that fishing enthusiasts were waiting for all these years! And according to our Beta Testers, we hit the mark!

Fishing Planet isn’t just another game about fishing. Stunning eye-candy graphics, superb hydro and aerodynamics, realistic tackle behavior and damage based on actual simulation physics and, most importantly, fish with artificial intelligence for completely lifelike behavior make this a true-to-life fishing simulator that can help you improve your actual angling skills!

The combination of unique graphics, realistic game physics and sophisticated AI will bring the realistic world of fishing directly to your computer screen!

Key features:

32+ species of fish, each with its unique behavior and AI.
7 scenic waterways with multiple locations, various climatic conditions, bottom terrains and vegetation.
Thousands of tackle combinations with unique physical and hydrodynamic properties.
Superb dynamic water graphics with ripples and surface that changes depending on wind, current and depth.
Weather – day/night alternation, change of seasons, different weather conditions (rain, fog, bright sunshine)
Multiplayer capacity – online tournaments with personal and team scores, system of achievements, leader boards and top-player lists.

What makes us different:

Complex AI system for fish behavior that correlates with seasonal and climatic change, time of day, speed of water current, bottom contour and type (color and structure), water and air temperature, wind, etc. Biting/striking reactions for each fish species are completely realistic and natural as well as specifics of lure attacks.
Photorealistic graphics – using latest high-end tools for ultimate photo-realism: photogrammetry, all waterways are based on real location.
Unique system of game physics and realistic tackle damage – rods, lines and reels break according to their actual individual characteristics. Realistic aero and hydrodynamic environment for lures and retrieves.
Dynamic water graphics – splashes, waves and ripples on the water create a fully realistic fishing atmosphere.
Weather – change of conditions depending on location, season and time of day. Possibility of sudden rain or sunshine breaking through the clouds.
Tournaments and fishing duels – created based on world’s most popular fishing competitions.
