Toy Bear: Hello everyone! I'm Toy Bear We've received lots of questions from players lately, so today I'll do a Q&A with EnvoyHell from the development team.
Toy Bear: Updates seem slower lately. Has development halted?
EnvoyHell: Development is still ongoing. We pushed frequent patches previously, which left many unresolved bugs requiring gradual fixes. Meanwhile, our team is fully focused on the Saltwater Pack. We will keep monthly updates rolling with fresh content.
Toy Bear: Is the Saltwater Pack in development? When can players access it?
EnvoyHell: It’s well underway! But extra development time is needed. Each fish pack contains massive content; we want to finish polishing plus matching aquarium decor before launch to avoid rushed releases. Marine species are far more diverse and intricate than freshwater fish, making design work more complex than expected.
Toy Bear: Hope those aren’t just excuses, looking forward to it!
EnvoyHell: Haha (sweats)
Toy Bear: Any other surprises besides the Saltwater Pack?
EnvoyHell: We’ve prepared secret bonus content for players, details remain undisclosed. We’re also planning for full official launch targeted later this year, hence slower routine updates recently.
Toy Bear: Heard you’re doing livestreams and podcasts, is workload too light?
EnvoyHell: All for game promotion! We aim to bring new players to With Me: Aquatic Time. Limited by manpower and budget, we’re testing various independent marketing approaches.
Toy Bear: Got it, but don’t let promotions delay core game development!
EnvoyHell: Rest assured we prioritize development fully. Thank you for your continuous support and patience.
Toy Bear: Can’t wait for future updates!

As the New Year’s Day fades into memory, the new year is not on the horizon. It has already kicked off in full swing!
For Sensory Patch Studio, 2025 was undoubtedly the most pivotal year in our history. We started from scratch: from project initiation to official launch, we worked to our full capacity nearly every single day, all in pursuit of creating a product that truly embodies our dedication and heart. With the release of our DEMO and Early Access versions, we were thrilled to receive far more positive feedback and enthusiastic suggestions from the community than we could have hoped for! True to its name, With Me has woven an unbreakable bond between all of us.
Our backend data tells a heartwarming story: to date, the total cumulative "Aquatic Time" logged by our community members has reached an astonishing 166,948 hours. That’s equivalent to 19 whole years!
Thank you for these 19 years of companionship! Haha. This number has brought immense joy to everyone in our team, as it perfectly aligns with our original vision for the game: we hope With Me: Aquatic Time can offer players a deep sense of long-term companionship.
In an era where everything moves at breakneck speed, this may seem like we’re swimming against the tide. But what if we could allow life to slow down? The gentle sunlight streaming through the office windows in the afternoon, the lingering aroma of coffee on our tongues... These fleeting moments stirred in us a quiet longing and a gentle rebellion. A desire to live life more slowly, more leisurely, more comfortably; to embrace a state of mind that allows us to face life’s pressures and challenges with grace and ease.
This is the very essence of our creation, and we hope to share this feeling with even more players in the years ahead!
2026 will bring new challenges and milestones for all of us, both in our personal lives and as a studio. Rest assured that we will continue to pour our hearts and souls into the development of With Me: Aquatic Time. We hope this game will accompany more people, bringing them joy and strength, as we witness beautiful moments unfold together.
With sincere gratitude,
The Entire Team at Sensory Patch Studio

Hey friends, long time no see! How have you all been? Time really flies. Somehow it’s already October.
Luckily, development on With Me: Aquatic Time! is going very smoothly, and we’ve got a few exciting updates to share with you~
The DEMO for With Me: Aquatic Time! has just been released. You can start your relaxed, idle fish-raising journey right now. And the progress you make (especially your fish coins!) can be carried over to the full release.
That means when the full game launches, you’ll be able to purchase new fish and new tank decorations!
We’re participating in this Next Fest, and we’ve also prepared some fun, bite-sized events (plus rewards that are hard to resist). Don’t miss out!

To help everyone get a better sense of With Me: Aquatic Time! we’ve produced a brand-new gameplay trailer that reveals some previously unseen content:
Recently we performed a comprehensive upgrade to our animations, and the fish now move with far greater liveliness and charm.
We’ve always been trying to distill and capture the beauty of fish. Whether through 2D art, 3D visuals, or real-life footage, none of these can fully reproduce the exact, lived beauty of watching fish glide through water.
That beauty is rooted in nature and life itself, and may be one of the fundamental foundations of human aesthetic sensibility.
We’ll keep working hard to express that beauty faithfully. We hope you’ll like how the fish look through our eyes.
🌊Thanks for being here. See you in the tank!🌊
🎮 Dear Players, Thank you for taking part in this playtest!
With Me: Aquatic Time! is a gamified focus tool that blends fish collection & nurturing with an aquarium decoration system.
You can set your own focus goals and let the fish accompany you while you concentrate; or you can feed your baby fish and simply enjoy watching them swim freely…
How you experience it is entirely up to you! 🐠
⚠️ Please note:
This version is still in the development and tuning stage. The content you are experiencing is a test build and does not represent the final quality or full content of the game. We will continue to polish and improve based on your feedback.

Hi there! I'm Mr.Glove 😎
Let me introduce myself.
As you can see, I am a white glove.
I am also a space wanderer.
I like Blue Planet very much. It is much more interesting than what my eight-legged distant relatives say!
When I first came here, I met a creature you call "cat".
I heard that people on Blue Planet like to pet cats? It's true!
Fortunately, I'm not hated by it, and guess what? It depended on me!
According to Article 17 of the Cosmic Balance Law, I gave it some of my magical powers, and now Dark Choco is a magical space cat!
At present, I plan to stay on Blue Planet temporarily.
If you play the work of Sensory Patch - "With Me: Aquatic Time!", we may appear in front of you!
Please witness it!

Thanks for stopping by, and we’ll see you next time! 😽
