Feed aliens and fight fish or something. Recreating existing games is fun.

Insaniquarium was great, loved having a screensaver with all my fish on it making money while I was asleep. Shame that there hasn't been a sequel or anything like that. Although considering Plants vs Zombies 2 ended up being a mobile game with a bunch of in-app purchases maybe we're better off. Haven't played it though so no idea. Anyway raising a tank of creatures with a food chain is an interesting mechanic and I want to build up my own game off of this, but figured that a good starting exercise would be just recreating Insaniquarium.
I showed some footage from a fan remake since the original version is gone now, you can play that here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1565...
I made a game buy it maybe: https://store.steampowered.com/app/23...
