About the Game

You're the captain of a klorb fishing ship on the vast Klorbing Sea, over a million square miles of the world's most violent and unpredictable waters. Every klorb season is a chance at big money in this modern-day gold rush: you and your crew race the other klorbing captains to catch as much as you can of the shared quota before it runs out.

A Living Ecosystem

Klorbin' is easy, just drop a catch pot and wait for the klorb climb in. A complete ecosystem lurks beneath the waters, and you're not the only predator hunting the klorb. Use the state of the ecosystem, the bait you use, and the environmental conditions to influence how fast a pot fills (or if it fills at all).

Manage Your Crew

Crewmembers have their own personalities, health, skills and quirks. A functional crew is required to perform every task on the ship, and the best klorbing captains manage the crew just as skillfully as they navigate their vessel.

Upgrade Your Vessel

Strange storms wreck equipment and crew alike, and you'll need to carefully maintain and upgrade your vessel just to stay afloat. Even the biggest and best-prepared ships have disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Many point fingers at captains who aren't afraid to play dirty...but others say there's something less-natural at work in these waters.

Unusual Hardware Welcome

 Want to take the helm for real? Dual-screen and secondary-touchscreen support is built in, and fully open-source, 3D-printable simulation controllers (wheel, throttle lever, and control panel) are free to build on our website.
