Controllable iceberg is the best idea ever. Cracked up over this one :)

Plot twist: you are the iceberg that sunk the Titanic.

fought with the controls a lot, until I got that it's like spring physics, very funny game

The foreshortened sprites were an interesting choice.

Took me a while to figure out the controls, but once I did was a fun game! Nice take on the theme and pretty innovative idea.

Hahaha, nice - after spending 48 hours making my game about AVOIDING icebergs, it's nice to play your game where the shoe is on the other foot.

Also, very cool graphical stylings and water sounds.

Pretty cool. The graphics are nice. It took me two tries before I realized what I was suppose to be doing. I was a bit confused by the sound of just hitting the ship (thought I may've been damaging it when I was damaging myself). In the end, I didn't really get the hang of it.

Haha, yeah. I don't know why, but I was laughing at that iceberg. I couldn't really figure out how to "jump" though.

Though I was unable to win this game, my heart will go...

pffft, no, can't do it. Funny concept for a game here. Couldn't really figure out a good way to time my jumps, though.

Fun. The controls were a bit hard to grasp it first, but very nice game!

Controls needed a bit of tweaking, but otherwise fun and gotta love that iceberg face.

Great concept. Timing the underwater "jumps" felt kinda random though. The graphics and audio are great ("ICESOMEEEE").

Sadly, I couldn't really grasp the controls after a few tries. Or maybe it's the gameplay I didn't quite grasp.
