HowToFishDirectConnect

Play How to Fish co-op over a direct IP connection - no Steam lobby or relay needed. Clean bilingual (EN / 中文) in-game panel. Does not modify the game's files.

CHANGELOG

1.3.0

  • Initial release.
  • Direct IP host / join over the game's own UDP transport (no Steam lobby or relay).
  • Redesigned in-game panel: home screen with Create Room / Join Room / Mod Settings, top bar with back button, F7 hint and close button, page transitions, toasts and hints.
  • Bilingual panel (English / 简体中文) that follows the game's language.
  • Host identity reservation and per-connection identity de-duplication (safe saves).
  • Save-before-teardown, session watchdog with a clear reason on failure, recent-room history, one-click IP copy.
  • Only the game version is a hard requirement; a protocol number guards the wire format.
