Hunt suggested target fish to earn x2 XP. Game tips: -Your oxygen level will be increased while you gain experience(XP) -Since default gear is for snorkelling, it reduces your diving performance. Replace it when you earn money. -Behave like you spearfishing in real life. Swimming towards the fish and chasing the fish won't work most of the time. Game modes: - Realistic: This is for real spearfishers. Fishes are very sensitive to your movements. Try to stay calm and still while waiting the fish. Oxygen level and consumption is realistic. - Simulation: Close to real life spearfishing. Oxygen level and consumption is realistic, fishes can be spooked easily. - Arcade: Easy mode. Oxygen consumption is much more slower. Fishes are much more braver.
