About
Forget the fishing rod—here, you are nature itself! Dive into the ocean depths and create a relentless capture zone. Devour schools of fish, evolve your powers, and build absurd combinations to survive waves of increasingly dangerous enemies.
Your mere presence in the water is enough to deal automatic damage to any poor soul that swims too close. Catch bigger and bigger fish during the run to strengthen your build and make sure you don't end up as bait.
Each fish you catch improves your abilities in different ways:
Increase your damage (biting harder is never a bad idea)
Boost your attack speed for total frenzy
Expand your capture zone (in the deep sea, size does matter)
Land devastating critical hits
Unleash electric shocks and fry the ocean
Freeze your enemies in place
Increase your oxygen so you don't drown (maritime irony, we know)
Every fish you catch transforms your build. Mix and match upgrades to create broken synergies and adapt your strategy as the waves grow more aggressive.
Catch multiple copies of the same species to trigger Evolution, progressing through Bronze, Silver, and Gold tiers. At each evolved stage, you choose one of three random cards to enhance your attributes and push your build into madness!
Huge, furious bosses appear as you progress. Defeating them requires a well-crafted build and smart positioning.
As time passes, the ocean becomes completely packed with enemies. Your capture range and evolutions must grow at the same pace, or the tide will swallow you whole.
In the middle of the chaos, watch for the ultra-rare Legendary Fish that appear in the depths.
They are unique specimens that grant absurd, devastating powers for a limited time. Catch them at the right moment to turn the game around, wipe the entire screen, and secure your survival when the tide turns against you!
Your goal is simple and direct:
Defeat Wave 43.
Your world leaderboard score is determined by how fast you can go from Wave 1 to the end of Wave 43.
Optimize your build, dominate the ocean, and compete for the fastest time in the world!

Game was a blast. It's an incremental with a leaderboard and actual skill required.
일단은 큐레이터 커넥트... 내가 해본 인크리멘탈(?) 중 짧으면서도 가장 재밌던 것 중에 하나였는데 소리 소문 없이 나와서 소문 없이 묻혔네... ㅋㅋ 이거 진짜 게임 디자인은 끝내주던데. 각 레벨별로 잡아야 하는 물고기 정해져 있고, 무수히 지나다니는 물고기들 중에서 그걸 모아야 다음 단계로 넘어갈 수 있음. 돈 번다고 미친듯이 클릭하면서도 눈으로 타겟 물고기 찾느라 희귀하고 어두운 물고기들은 생각보다 존나 헷갈려... 잘못 잡은 물고기들도 꽝이나 단순 환전이 아니라 "물고기=장비"이기도 하여 그게 모이면 업글이 됨. 풀업한 물고기들은 또 각각 승천해서 스킬 붙기 때문에 하위 단계 물고기라도 상위 단계 물고기보다 오래 쓸 수도 있고 지금 빌드에 필요한 옵션이다 싶으면 같이 쓸 수도 있는 등... 뺐다 꼈다 장비 세팅 계속 바꾸게 되던 면이 좋았음. 체인 라이트닝 물고기 끼고 있다가 딜 딸려서 저걸론 못 잡는다 싶어서 뺐다가, 새로 체라 딜뻥 물고기 나와서 다시 끼는 등 짧은 시간 내에 빌드 교체해가는 맛이 좋더라. 점점 인크리멘탈 슬롭화되어 그리드형 스킬 찍기 무한 승천들만 양산되고 있는 이 장르에서 독특하고도 레벨 디자인이 의외로 아주 훌륭하던. 근데 아트가 완전 에셋 AI 슬롭처럼 생겼잖아; 영상 보면 물고기들이 슬라이드쇼처럼 움직이니까 진짜 싸구려 같다. 망한 원인도 이게 10000%겠지. 내가 큐커로 받았을 때도 이 씨발 좆쓰레기 AI 게임은 뭐지? 주제도 모르고 감히 내게 소매 넣기를? 까보기 전까진 이런 심정이었던 만큼. (내가 하꼬가 아니면 거절까지 눌렀을지도?) 역시 아트력이 딸리면 내용물은 아무 소용이 없다... 그거 외에 개발자가 홍보나 관리 이런 거 전혀 생각이 없나 봄. 이게 첫 버전에선 중간 저장 기능이 없어서 게임 나가면 데이터가 날아갔거든. 그래서 포럼에 글 적었더니 똑같이 해보고 감동한 외국인이 댓글로, 중간 저장 기능 넣어주면 적극 홍보하겠다고 했는데 개발자가 글을 못 봤는지 씹었는지 답변이 없었네ㅋㅋㅋ 그 글 보는 사람들은 다 이 게임은 여전히 저장 기능이 없구나, 생각할걸. (출시 버전에선 생겼더라고 일단은.) 플탐은 2시간밖에 안 돼. 아마. (내가 41탄에서 게임 껐다가 데이터가 날아가서 엔딩을 못 봄-_-; 아 좀만 쉬어야지 하고 게임 껐는데 다시 켜보니 데이터가 없어.) 당연히 처망했을 게임이지만 처망해선 안 됐을 게임이라 아깝기도 해. 그치만 어쩌겠어, 겉보기엔 진짜 무슨 중학생 과제처럼 생겼는걸. 누가 이 겉모습을 보고 오 시발 존나 재밌겠네 찜해둬야지 생각할까; 밤이라 센치해지네.

Idle & Incremental Lovers recommends Wave 43: [i] Fun time waster with some creative ideas and a bit of skill involved. Pacing is great, you really rush through early levels after gaining power. Great taunts by the mocking shark every time you die. [/i] + No mindless mouse hovering here (except once you get OP), you're actively looking for three wave-specific kind of fish, a mechanic that really stands out from other games in the genre. + Each lost brings an hilarious back and forth between the mocking shark and the scout fish. + You collect each new sort of fish, and you can use them as relics. Choosing which relics to use (spots are limited) and how to ascend them (choose one of three perks) allows you to create your own build, amazing! + Perfect length, doesn't overstay it's welcome. Wanna play more? Fight for your place on the leaderboard op play endless mode! + Shock (lightning), best dopamine mechanic in every incremental game, prove me wrong! *Why is the ocean so salty? Because the land doesn't wave back.* Found this review helpful?

Cool little game, it's a bit too short, but at least there are leaderboards to try and fight for
Cool game. very hard to stop playing. I love that it has endless and a leaderboard.
This is a very fun little game, well worth the price if you're wanting a quality time waster. It's like a modern flash game, in the best of ways.
Tchê, bagual ein
Fun game worth the price
