A brand-new Steam game called Sea Sniffers takes cues from Pokemon and Dave the Diver, creating what looks like a perfect crossover between the two. Steam is filled with creature-collecting indie games inspired by Pokemon, but few have attempted to bring that formula to an aquatic setting with such a cozy atmosphere, and Sea Sniffers could be one of the first to explore the concept.

In Dave the Diver, players work a two-shift routine: In the morning, they scuba dive to hunt fish and search for treasures, while at night, they run Bancho Sushi, preparing meals with the fish they have caught. Sea Sniffers follows a similar premise, tasking players with catching various types of fish across an expansive ocean. However, its Pokemon-inspired twist comes from its approach to creature collecting, which sets it apart from Dave the Diver.

A brand-new open-world game has serious Stardew Valley vibes, but it also has a delivery business for Pokemon-like creatures that's pretty unique.

Announced through a short trailer on September 10, Sea Sniffers is an upcoming Steam game centered around fishing in a cozy pixel art setting. The game features more than 100 creatures , including a wide variety of unique fish. Much like in Pokemon games , players will have access to a Pokedex-inspired animal compendium where they can register the fish they catch. Notably, Sea Sniffers appears to have none of the weapons featured in Dave the Diver , with its fishing mechanics seemingly designed to be non-violent for the most part.
