v0.19.0-alpha Pre-release
released this
2026-08-26 02:22:49 +00:00 | 4 commits to main since this releasestraywild
As of version 0.19.0 NETfishing is now straywild.
Why the change?
There are a bunch of factors that lead to us deciding to rebrand the game. One early decision that was made was to try to distance oursleves a bit from webfishing. Obviously our game takes quite a bit of influence from webfishings overall aesthetic but as straywild continues to be developed we are adding more and more that continue to set the game apart from it's spiritual predecessor. We want straywild to stand on it's own two feet and not on the shoulders of a now defunct game with a dicey past. We hope the namechange will instill some confidence that our team is here for the long haul and ready to build a game that is capable of representing itself and offering new ideas and focusing a new vision for what a social activity game like this can be and do.
Stemming from this, we also felt NETfishing was too specific and granular in it's naming. As we've been talking to the community so many great ideas for new gameplay elements, mini games and other activities have been suggested or thought up. We don't think it's fair to the game to pin it to fishing when that's just the very first of many many things we'd like to see brought to life in our virtual world. straywild lets us expand the game in new and interesting ways as we move forward without the titular anchor.
At the end of the day straywild is a game about being silly with your friends. For free. Where ever you can play games. What you're doing with that time should vary and stay interesting and fresh and fun. straywild fits the bill well for this purpose and captures the spirit of what we're trying to accomplish.
Keep an eye out for changing links and such as we move the branding over. This may effect things like our Steam release as we may have to resubmit for review or jump through other hoops go get the rebranding to stick on various platforms.
We hope you like the change and see our vision for the future of the game.
This time I mean it, no more updates till September. I love you all, see you next week.
