About

Black Hole Fishing is an absurd, endless incremental game where your simple fishing pond spirals into a cosmic event. By scaring massive numbers of genetically modified fish into a black hole singularity, you'll optimize traits, drain layered caverns, and escalate toward planetary destruction. It's a hilarious blend of unethical fish science and deeply satisfying idle progression.

Story

What begins as a humble pond quickly spirals into a 'Fishy Business' mystery filled with shady clientele and cosmic horror. As you drain layered caverns to uncover the planet's core, you'll feed an ever-growing black hole in pursuit of the ultimate, world-ending trophy.

Gameplay

Start with primitive rock-throwing to scare fish into the void, then automate the madness with auto-stockers and fish cannons. Optimize your catch through questionable science, breed unique genetic traits, and upgrade your singularity in an endless loop of idle escalation.

Key Features

  • 1Black Hole Mechanics: Feed fish to grow the singularity and drain ponds to reveal deeper caverns.
  • 2Unethical Fish Science: Optimize genetic traits using the Fish Lab, Hatchery, and the Fish Press.
  • 3Large Halibut Collider™: Smash fish at relativistic speeds to discover elusive Quantum Sharks.
  • 4Deep Automation Loops: Set up auto-stockers and launch cannons for endless, idle progression.
  • 5Absurd Scaling: Start with a caveman throwing rocks and end with planetary destruction.
  • 6Steam Achievements: 17 unique achievements to track your descent into fish-based cosmic horror.
