I have listened/watched this several dozen times because of how helpful it was. This is most concise money help guide on this game that I've seen on youtube. It was a pleasant listen/watch too! thank you!

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Aww thank you so much I'm happy that it helped & that you like it!!

[@psychic7615]

I was on the fence about this game, thought it was too simple. But boy, was I wrong. I’m thinking of buying it now because of this video! Thanks and keep it up. 👍

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Yas!! it's a really good game 😻 it was so much fun & funny 😆 the story and characters are colorful

[@psychic7615]

@@MeerkatPlaysIndie Yeah I downloaded it today and I can’t wait to play it. Thanks 🙏

[@MrRogue-xg7pq]

This is insanely detailed. Thank you for the hard work, this is the best guide on this I've seen anywhere on YT.

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Thank you 💖 I'm glad you liked it 🥺

[@Thunderybeans]

Loved the style of your video. Totally fitting to the Dave the Diver atmosphere. The Meerkat matching the info is just adorable and awesome. Thanks, looking forward to checking out the rest of your vids!

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Aww thank you! ❤️ i appreciate that!!

[@Hungerformore8]

You've always got the best information. This video saves me a whole bunch of note taking. Thank you for your hard work

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Yay ✨ my pleasure! 💜

[@BlueSky_Gamer]

Thanks so much. Been putting together my own preferred recipies based on profit and getting to Diamond\Platinum as I have not yet completed the game, so all the tips on dishes and what to catch are super helpful!

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Ayyy you're playing it too?! 💜😻 hope you're enjoying iiiit ✨ And yush, you can max out your cooksta with lvl 10 hammerhead tho! I find it to be the fastest way to get best taste in mid game because it was a lot easier to get hammerhead meat (approx 30-54 meat/dive if you caught x2, using drones + tranquilizers)

[@AaronS1989]

I loved this game. Had so much fun.

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

me too! I sorta wished there were more content tho ;w; it went by too fast

[@vaporeonwaterbender7954]

Very helpful. Love the cute style!

[@nawwk79]

Lemme tells ya, once you are able to farm cucumbers. Spider Crab Cucumber and Toad Fish Cucumber are the only 2 dishes you need to make a crap load of money.

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

This is nice too since we can finally breed crabs 🎉

[@jmmnlb]

I could listen to you yap for hours🤩

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

thank you so much 🙈 I'm happy you liked it!

[@AznDumbum]

I noticed that you don't have anything from the Deep Ocean. Is it because there are no dishes to make from fishes there?

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Oh it's because there weren't any dish that were worth the trouble to make back then! But after the update, the Stargazer + Crab dishes are very worth it because we can breed them now!! 🐟💖

[@dighad3824]

if they don't add your meerkat to the sequel i'm rioting

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

ahahaha 🤣 I'm happy you like the meerkat that much!! 💖

[@Randomturtle001]

This is a good guide, but I find it odd there is no mention of the "Crimson Fish Roll", Unless I missed something.

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Oh yeah, that's good too if you decide to get Billy & level to 15! (Which I recommend btw ✨) Though its price is a bit lower than the other mentioned dishes. It can be a good alternative tho!

[@DaSinofGreed]

Any Godzilla dishes worth adding to the menu?

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

YAS! All the Godzilla dishes are a few coins more expensive compared to the highest selling dishes on this guide :3 Though the truffle-based dishes (from secret recipes by Jango) are still more expensive than Godzilla ones!

[@AA-fq8bx]

I just miss your voice and I miss you

[@BartOppeel]

What dish is the best for the Lobster Party ?

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Hi! The Lobster platter sells for 1609 at max, and really easy to make once you breed American Lobster, Tropical Rock Lobster, and Tokummia Katalepsis!

[@BartOppeel]

@@MeerkatPlaysIndie Awesome thank you !

[@Scilla1084]

I was hoping you were going to talk about the simple low price dishes... is there even a point to level those up?

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

henlo! Did you mean if there's a point leveling up low price dishes? o3o no not really, but saving the fishes would be a good idea for future recipes/secret recipes!

[@Scilla1084]

@MeerkatPlaysIndie ok thank you... And thank you so much for all your videos! I watched all of your Roots of Pacha guides.

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

@@Scilla1084 aww thank you too 🥺💖 happy I was able to help! 💖

[@spectre382]

Is this still the best setup for the fish farm?

[@MeerkatPlaysIndie]

Hi! I'd say a good addition to it are lobsters, specifically the American Lobster, Tropical Rock Lobster, and Tokummia Katalepsis for Lobster Platter (most expensive lobster dish for lobster parties). For the Blue hole depth, you can put stargazers too!

[@spectre382]

@@MeerkatPlaysIndie that's what I did, just got to end game, I spent 3 hours last night just diving and droning all 3 parrot fish each run, you get 81 parrot fish meat that way. It's the only menu item I run at both restaurants. Great game I really enjoyed it. Just found your channel through it by the way.
