Announced 2026-09-29. The developer says Fishipedia shows a bait name after you kill that fish once; this does not establish a clue for unrecorded fish or a save fix.
GUIDE IMPACT
Patch 1.0.11 confirms your own explosives can kill you even with friendly fire disabled.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.11 removed the purchasable iron sight and prevented downgrading a Suppressor to a Compensator. Patch 1.1.2 restored the option to downgrade to ironsight. Check the resulting attachment configuration before buying; the older iron-sight restriction is superseded.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.10 added ground-item persistence for up to 64 items with priority for weapons, tools, quest items and creatures. That cap is a safeguard, not unlimited storage.
Read the affected claimThe Islet Update 1.1.0 added a weapon, items and an outfit. Patch 1.1.2 added two bow skins and adjusted wishbone upgrade prices. The notes do not provide a complete current shop inventory or exact upgrade prices.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.10 says cooking can be removed from weapons and tools by dipping them in water. This is a developer-described interaction; Kingy has not measured any sale-value benefit.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.1.3 makes Fishipedia display a fish’s bait name after you have killed it once, to help with Drip hunting. It does not reveal bait for a fish you have never killed.
Read the affected claimDeveloper patch notes added support for up to eight players in 1.0.4, then invite-only lobbies in 1.0.5. The Steam description still says one to four. For a friends-only crew, choose the private session option.
Read the affected claimChoose the private session option and invite your group. If you change session type in an existing game, the 1.0.5 notes say that change requires a restart.
Read the affected claimDisabling friendly fire does not protect you from your own explosives, according to the 1.0.11 notes.
Read the affected claimThe September 28 1.1.0 Islet announcement adds mini islands, a weapon, creatures, a mini-boss, items, bait, an NPC, achievements and an outfit. It does not describe save migration or recovery.
Read the affected claimThe September 29 1.1.2 note adds reload rebinding and bow skins, changes new-bait spawns from two to three on a new mini island and adjusts wishbone prices and radar dots. It reports fixing Tench spawning from the new bait and a mini-boss direction indicator.
Read the affected claimThe September 29 1.1.3 note says Fishipedia now shows a fish’s bait name after that fish has been killed once. It does not say this reveals bait for unrecorded creatures.
Read the affected claimThe 1.0.12 announcement introduced Steam Cloud support and tells existing players to run and exit the game on the machine holding their saves.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.10 says dropped items persist up to a total of 64, with priority for weapons, tools, quest objects and creatures. That limit is not a promise that every loose object is permanent.
Read the affected claimThe developer reports fixing travel to locked islands in 1.0.5. Treat an older island-skip guide as potentially outdated.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.10 added the game version to player.log. Patch 1.0.12 introduced Steam Cloud and tells players to launch and exit on the computer holding their save once to upload it.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.5 fixed travel to islands before they were unlocked. An old video skipping these hand-ins does not establish a current route.
Read the affected claimThe Islet Update 1.1.0 added multiple mini islands and an NPC, and adjusted the distance between islands. The five-island main route below does not cover every new islet.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.1.2 enlarged mini-island dots on the radar. The official notes do not give coordinates or a complete new NPC route; follow your current radar and dialogue.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.12 says the final boss should take explosive damage when landing on its tail. That announced fix is not a measured damage formula.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.9 added difficulty changes in the menu and during play. Easy reduces creature health by 25% and damage by 50%; Hard increases both by 25%.
Read the affected claimThe Islet Update 1.1.0 added a mini-boss. Patch 1.1.2 fixed its direction-indicator triangles. These notes do not name the encounter or establish its bait, stats or a kill strategy, so the older routes below are not a complete current boss catalogue.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.11 explicitly makes your own explosives lethal even with friendly fire disabled. Plan space between yourself and the blast.
Read the affected claimThe 1.1.0 Islet announcement adds bait and creatures without naming a full catch pool. The 1.1.2 note reports fixing Tench spawning from the new bait and increasing that bait’s spawn on the new mini island from two to three.
Read the affected claimThe 1.1.3 note says Fishipedia displays the bait name after you have killed a fish once. Use that in-game clue for recorded fish; it does not solve an unseen entry or validate older static catch percentages.
Read the affected claimCheck the game’s current bindings and accessibility options before copying a guide’s key presses. Developer updates added aim and sprint toggles, hold-to-attack, nametag controls and look-axis inversion.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.11 added toggle aiming, toggle sprinting, hold-to-attack and a nametag toggle. Patch 1.0.5 added X/Y look inversion.
Read the affected claimThe developer announced Steam Deck verification in 1.0.11; 1.0.8 addressed PlayStation controller glyphs. That is not a Kingy performance benchmark or confirmation of every controller mapping.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.12 updated MetaVoice to 4.3 with the stated aim of fixing voice issues. A connection debug indicator was added in 1.0.9. These are diagnostic leads, not proof of the cause of your particular audio problem.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.1.2 added reload rebinding. Set and test your preferred reload input before a fight; earlier controls lists predate this option.
Read the affected claimThe developer says 1.1.0 added creatures, a mini-boss and bait. The announcement does not enumerate the new journal entries or say how many count toward Collector or Fishipedia.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.1.3 adds a bait-name clue to Fishipedia after that fish has been killed once. Use it when hunting its Drip variant; it does not identify bait for an unseen entry.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.10 added persistence for up to 64 ground items with priority for weapons, tools, quest items and creatures; 1.0.12 then limited item velocity. Neither announcement promises recovery of an already missing item.
Read the affected claimPatch 1.0.10 says dipping a cooked weapon or tool in water cleans it. This addresses an item you can still find; it does not recover a missing item or restore a save.
Read the affected claimDazed Games removed the radar’s X in patch 1.0.10; it had marked the place where you last died. Its absence alone does not mean the Radar is missing or that an item or save needs restoring.
Read the affected claimDazed Games changed item-dot colours in patch 1.0.11: dropped weapons use orange, while dead players use turquoise. Use the orange cue when searching for a dropped weapon; it does not guarantee that a lost item still exists.
