### 0.5.5 · Straight into the water
2026-09-13 · [read on fishies.lol](https://fishies.lol/news/0.5.5)
Play the moment you arrive, glass from top to bottom, gifts and a stash, new music, and Turkish that finally reads like Turkish.
Fishies 0.5.5 is the biggest update since alpha began. **Here is what changed.**
#### Play first, sign in later
- Opening Fishies drops you straight into your own aquarium as a guest. No sign-in panel stands in the way.
- When you are ready, save your progress by linking Google, X or Apple. Signing out as a guest warns you first, so a tank is never lost by accident.
- Sign in with Apple now works on the web and in the desktop app.
- Opened Fishies inside Instagram, TikTok or Facebook? Sign-in now tells you to open it in your browser instead of failing quietly. Guest play works everywhere.
- Your first egg hatches in seconds, so you meet your fish right away.
- Choosing your keeper name is what opens chat, visits and Open Water.
#### A new glass interface
- The whole game moved into glass: a level ring up top, a tool dock along the bottom of the tank, and a simple menu.
- Shop, level-up, news and settings open as rooms in the same deep-blue glass, and fit a phone held either way.
- Coming back shows how long you were away and what happened, card by card.
- Explore lives in the dock, with keepers who are online right now up front. Long names no longer get cut off.
- Right-click puts down the tool in your hand without opening a menu underneath.
- The loading screen is a small reef of its own: fish dive in from above the water as the tank fills.
- Each new release greets you once with its notes when you come back.
#### Your account
- A proper account centre, on its own page and inside the game: your aquarium, sign-in methods, badges, notifications and language.
- You can permanently delete your account from there.
- Aquariums without a name show as their keeper's aquarium.
#### Stash, gifts and the shop
- A stash: buy now, place later. Fish and decorations both wait there.
- Gifts wait safely in the other keeper's stash, eggs included, so nothing starts hatching until they place it. A gift sent on a shaky connection arrives once.
- A cart in the shop: fill it and check out once.
- Pick the sand your tank sits on.
#### Together
- Open Water is open: swim out as one of your own fish, zoom in and out, and find everyone on the map.
- Visit a friend's aquarium and join it as a fish, and watch its keeper feed and level up live.
- Chat is always open, with a channel for the tank you are in, whispers from level 10, painted emotes, and a card when you tap someone's name.
- Aquariums show their followers and stars, and you can star the ones you love.
- Block and report keepers; reports are reviewed by hand.
#### Fish, music and looks
- Fish loosely shoal with their own kind, rush their food, and big schools keep their spacing.
- Hungry fish show it straight away, and fourteen species got a fresher look.
- New music: Kelp Lullaby is the main theme, Coral Crossing follows it, and the jukebox lets you pick which tracks take turns.
- A new mascot, a new tab icon, and a press kit page.
#### Words and privacy
- Fishies uses one simple word for each thing: aquarium, food, News. The English is shorter and clearer.
- The Turkish version has been rewritten to read naturally.
- No more cookie popup: page counts are kept on our own server, and nothing is tracked about you personally.
- The home page leads with one clear way in, and news and patch notes live on the blog, in your language when it has been written.
