Some guy complained this fishing game only caters to queer players, so the dev added a "straight" title - it costs $9999

That's in-game money, of course, earned by selling your catch. Not actual human dollars. But it's still a comically large price tag when compared to the other titles in the game, which generally cost $75.

Should've been real money

Seriously. Reminds me of those "I'm Rich" apps which just displays that text, and actual idiots wanted to flex so they bought them.

I love this game. Also the title does indeed have the doublequotes around it, which no other title does. Last update fixed a lot of things and generally made the game nicer to play.

That's pretty funny. Maybe I'll check this game out.

I've heard some queer friends talking about this game and I had no idea what it was. Now I know, and not only is this hilarious now I want to give it a try. It looks pretty cute.
