6 itemsAbout the Game
Whistling Waters is a vintage cartoon fishing game inspired by the classic animation of Steamboat Willie! Work on a steamboat spending your days fishing in a hand-drawn, rubber-hose world. The sea is not friendly, nor is your boss. Catch as many fish as you can to meet your boss's quota and avoid damaging your ship.

FISH to make money. Make sure to reach your daily quota by the end of each day or else you're fired!
STEER the ship to avoid damaging the hull. Make sure the steamboat is heading straight every once in a while as you navigate the waters.
REPAIR the steamboat if your hull takes damage. Use the grapple to fish out drift wood for repairs, or use your extra money to buy planks.

NIGHT TIME comes at the end of each day. Turn in the fish you've caught to see if you met today's quota and use your left-over money on upgrades.
A retro fishing adventure inspired by the golden age of 1930s animation and Steamboat Willie.
