Indie iOS game Ridiculous Fishing won’t be exclusive to Apple’s platform for much longer. Developer Vlambeer has announced on its developer blog that an Android version of the game is in the works. So far, the game has sold almost 300,000 copies since its iOS release back in March. Thanks to this, it has is approaching the $1 million point in terms of sales revenue. Sadly enough, there's no definite release date for the Android version yet."Because of popular request, we've been working with Zach Gage and Greg Wohlwend since March to see if we can create an Android version of Ridiculous Fishing," the post reads. "The breakthrough came when we met up with the folks at Apportable, who have a framework that allows them to port the game over to Android. That port is now almost done, and the next time you see us mentioning this should be when it releases. It might be sooner than you think."
I wonder how much money that bottle's worth
It's no secret that we absolutely love Ridiculous Fishing. The moment we got our hands on it, we've been in love. Even after only getting to play it for a couple of minutes on a friend’s iPhone, this has been a mainstay in my own phone ever since. The premise is simple: send your lure down into the deepest depths of the waters without touching anything, and the moment you touch something, you come back up grabbing all the fish you want on your way back. When you hit the surface, you put away your fishing rod and bring out the big guns (literally) and gun down all the fishes to get money. You get to buy upgrades as well, including fishing lines that let you go deeper, akimbo miniguns and hairdryers and toasters that act as an extra life underwater. It wouldn’t be too much of a stretch to say that owing to its tight gameplay and hilarious writing, this is probably one of the best iOS games we’ve ever played.The game is currently available on the iTunes App Store as a universal app for both iPhone and iPad for Rs 170.
