About
Pocket Aquarium takes the best of virtual pet games from the 90s and early 2000s and adds a unique twist with wild minigames. A collection of cute reef fish await, with minigames ranging from juggling in a circus to blasting aliens in space.
At the beginning, the Clownfish and Blue Tang will be available to play with and care for, but more is always better! Play games, earn money, and visit the pet store to buy supplies and eventually more fish. You may find surprises waiting even after your tank is full!
Spend time with your fish to keep them happy and healthy! Each fish has its own way of play. From the Clownfish's smorgasbord of circus performances to seahorse races and epic battles in space, there's tons of retro fun to be had.
There's a mix of options to help your aquarium feel yours. In addition to unlockable skins for your tank, you can also swap out the artwork for the sidebars to suit your style.
Those pixels aren't just for looks! Pocket Aquarium is an authentic Game Boy Color game that was created using GBStudio. The Steam version of Pocket Aquarium is packaged with GodotBoy. For players, that means authentic retro gameplay accompanied by an authentic retro soundtrack. Included in the Steam version are two filters, a CRT filter and also a green filter inspired by the original Gameboy display.

This game is incredibly charming! I’ve been playing for a while now, and it reminds me of Tamagotchi and Cave Game (DS). I’ve really enjoyed caring for my fish, collecting new ones, and learning fun facts about each species I own. I do have a couple of small notes. While I appreciate the overall style, the Game Boy aesthetic isn’t the only visual direction, and I personally think the game would benefit from one consistent art style throughout. Additionally, I understand the game has just launched, but it does feel a bit bare-bones at the moment. Continued updates and added content would definitely keep me coming back. Overall, great work — I’m excited to see how the game grows!
I've really enjoyed this game so far! I love the retro feel to it, it reminds me of the old Game Boy days. I like the concept of playing with the fish through mini-games, though one or two of those mini-games run a little long. All in all it's a satisfying gameplay loop that touches on management games and retro games.
Cute pet sim with a fun retro GBC vibe. It's exactly the kind of game I'd love to play as a kid.
