TIDELINE

How to Play

• Aim — move the mouse to swing your cast direction.
• Cast — hold Left Click or Space to charge the power meter, release to cast. Long casts reach deeper water where rarer fish live.
• Wait — watch the bobber. Small nibbles are teases; when it plunges and a ! appears, you have a split second.
• Hook — click (or Space) instantly during the ! window to set the hook.
• Reel — hold click to reel in. Reeling builds tension; release to let it recover. When the fish surges, stop reeling or the line snaps!
• Profit — sell fish at the Shop (B), upgrade your rod, reel, line and bait, and unlock new waters on the Map (M).
• Collect — every species you land is logged in the Journal (J). Time of day and location change what bites.
• Retrieve — hold click while waiting (or press R) to reel the bobber back with no bite.
