What Fishy Moe does differently.
Search, preview, and download through the hinai mirror. Self-hosted, so the catalogue, PP data, and audio previews never depend on a stranger's API.
Timewarp, aim assist, HD removers and more, allowed within clear rules. Test or Play openly instead of hiding, with the osu! Cheat List as your field guide.
osu!direct, custom themes, profile media, and the full web experience for every account. Supporter exists to say thanks.
No recycled private-server website. fishy.moe is designed from scratch with deep-sea themed and more to come.
Quarterly seasons run alongside the all-time boards, so a fresh account always has a live race to enter.
Run by same designer/developer of the most recent kawata.pw changes. The same backend just adjust and improved, with its own custom design identity.
Graveyard maps our staff brought back, credited to everyone who got them here.
Fresh maps added to the ranked pool, straight from our mirror.
The hottest maps of the freshly ranked pool, by play count.
FAQ
The basics before you dive into fishy.moe.
Yes. fishy.moe is free to play: osu!direct, custom themes, profile media, and the full website come with every account. Supporter perks like username changes are an optional thank-you, never a paywall.
An osu! private server is a community-run alternative to the official osu! servers, with its own accounts, leaderboards, and ranked maps. You point the osu! client at it instead of the official server.
Yes, within the rules. fishy.moe is a testing ground for client developers, so modified clients (timewarp, aim assist, and more) are welcome. The one hard rule is a single account per person. The osu! Cheat List covers which clients still work.
Akatsuki, Ripple, and Gatari are large vanilla and relax servers built around competitive integrity. fishy.moe is a smaller, design-led sister of kawata.pw that welcomes modified clients, hosts its own beatmap mirror, and runs quarterly seasons. If you want a relaxed server that allows cheats and has a hand-built web, fishy is the alternative.
No. Registration is open and needs no email, either in the osu! client or on the website. Your account verifies itself the first time you log in through the osu! client.
Launch osu! with the -devserver fishy.moe switch (full steps are on the Rules and connection page), then log in with your fishy.moe account.
