Whisperwood Vale

A cozy pixel fishing game — imagined woods and a made-up pond, not a simulator of Hoover. This page is a teaser only.

COMING SOON — NOT PLAYABLE

Cast into fog, tend a tiny cabin dock, and journal soft catches. Not the real lake. No download, no demo build, no high scores — yet.

Art direction notes (one screen)

Palette: dusk indigo, lantern amber, moss green, cream UI parchment — same family as this site, softer fog overlays.
Camera: fixed or gentle side-scroll pier; chunky 16×16 / 32×32 sprites; readable silhouettes at phone size.
Mood: Stardew-adjacent calm — no combat, no leaderboards. Soft loop of crickets and water.
Fish: invent whimsical pond species; never claim ODNR regulations or real Hoover maps inside the game.
UI: pixel corners, notebook log pages, “cast / wait / reel” as simple button states.
Out of scope for v0: multiplayer, microtransactions, live weather APIs.

The Night Bite website is the real-world notebook. Whisperwood Vale is fiction. Visitors here are reading a teaser — they are not playing a game on this static site.
