In Shrimp, there are Timed item drops, which at the current moment are set to happen every 2 hours. (Capped at 4 a day)

Here's how those in-game item drop chances are laid out for Shrimp:

Overall item drop chances are:

  • 62% Chance of a Shrimp Skin (used to change the visual of your shrimp)

  • 33% Chance of a Background Color (used to change the background color)

  • 5% Chance of a Particle (used to change the visual of click particle effect)

Shrimp Skin Drops are then split into 5 different rarity drop pools:

  • 65% Chance for a Common Skin

  • 20% Chance for a Uncommon Skin

  • 10% Chance for a Rare Skin

  • 4% Chance for a Master Skin

  • 1% Chance for a Legendary Skin

But not all of the skins are equally weighted within the rarity pools, for example, the "Tiny Shrimp" Item has a 1% chance within the legendary drop pool, meaning its drop rate should be 0.0062%.

Background Drops are split into 3 rarity pools:

  • 88% Chance for a Common Skin

  • 9% Chance for a Uncommon Skin

  • 3% Chance for a Rare Skin

Particle Drops aren't split into different rarities

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There will also be Non-Timed Item Drops.

Currently, there is only one which is gained by achieving one of the achievements. But as I update the game after launch, I'll add more of these items.

Outside of in-game item drops, I wanted to say that items sold in the Shrimp Shop do not drop in the game, and occasionally the items will be swapped for new items, once taken out of the Shrimp Shop these items will only be purchasable through the community market (if others want to sell their item).

Wishlist the game to be notified when it releases. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3054490/Shrimp

alright, Shrimp :)
