Who’d want mashed sushi

Dave The Diverteased its coming updatea couple of weeks ago, and it’s here now. It focuses on resolving quality-of-life issues in the sushi restaurant ‘em up, such as making the UI larger and allowing players to eliminate button-mashing.

Reeling in fish you’ve gored with your harpoon in Dave The Diver normally means hammering a button, which is both noisy and, given you do it hundreds of times, somewhat tedious. As of this update, you can now automate the process with a single push of a button by flipping a switch in the settings. Bliss.

The UI has been made larger, making better use of previously empty space on PC screens, but also making text easier to read for players on small screens like the Steam Deck. Other UI tweaks include being able to sort your inventory by acquired date, weight, name, rank and amount.
