ECHO THE DOGEFIN RESCUES FLIGHT MH371 by matt_j
such hero!
HOW TO PLAY ---
Direct Echo around with the mouse. Click/hold where you want him to go.
You can only carry 3 people, and you can't carry an oxygen tank and people at the same time.
Use the oxygen tank to shoot bubbles at the plane to fill it up with more air.
Shoot bubbles at any stray humans that are trying to swim for it to help them out!

Simple yet pretty challenging game, especially on hard difficulty!
Good job :)
I liked the art / animations on the little dudes.
Other than that: wow, such swimming, much fun, so music.
Also, I think it's possible for you to lose because the plane is out of air, even when all the passengers have been rescued. Not 100% sure though.
Such dlophin. Wow. Much fun ;)
Controls felt a little wonky, but I guess that's part of the challenge is learning how to effectively control him. Mechanics felt pretty solid for the most part other than that. Game was pretty hard, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
I was confused about the plane itself losing oxygen. Am i supposed to take the O2 to the plane, or use it to put a bubble around survivors, or both? It was a little confusing.
Overall though, I had fun messing around with it, definitely not bad at all for one person in 72 hours. If you're gonna continue working on it, though, I would recommend maybe adding some mechanics eventually, like sharks that come to attack that you have to fend off as well and such. Anything that adds to the total mayhem of the game and challenges you to spread your attention even more thin is likely to add to the excitement/fun. Will say that I'm absolutely so sick of this doge meme though :P
I also like crude graphics like 'just put a dogs head on a dolphin body' (which is well done by the way), so you rate high on the humor category!
Nice music, that gave me the strength to keep going!
(Shame on Apple).
