TANKBAR: COZY TASKBAR AQUARIUM - PRESS KIT
==========================================

A tiny living aquarium for your taskbar.

Tankbar is a cozy idle aquarium and creature collector for Windows 10/11 (64-bit).
Single-player, with an optional online mode (Harbor) that signs in with the Steam account that owns Tankbar.
Offline-first; the Harbor is off by default. A free browser demo is on the website.
One price, no ads, no microtransactions, no loot boxes; every odd is shown.

HOW IT IS MADE (AI DISCLOSURE)
Tankbar is written in TypeScript. The developer wrote the code with the help of an AI coding assistant (Anthropic’s Claude), directing, testing and reviewing every part. Some in-game text was drafted with the same assistant and then edited by the developer. No image, video, voice or music generation models were used. Every fish, plant and pebble is drawn procedurally by the game’s own code at runtime, and all music and sound effects are synthesized live on the player’s computer.

STREAMING AND VIDEOS
Streaming and monetized videos of Tankbar are welcome on any platform. No need to ask.
The in-game radio is composed live by the game and is cleared for use in videos and streams.
