It's very annoying ! I had to restart the game multiples times to be able to test the latter levels, and I had to redo the first levels.\r<br\/>There is also no tutorial. It should be okay because you could fiddle around and find out about how the game works, but since there is the &quot;you can't restart&quot; problem, you're scared of trying new things out.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The concept is interesting, and the controls okay... You could have used the touch screen in a better way I think. Having half the screen taken by buttons is meh.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The graphics' quality is poor, and sometimes feel heterogeneous (the tile style is completely different from the rest for example).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway : First Ludum Dare Game I tried on mobile platform, was worth testing."},{"author_name":"Jadernak","author_uid":"36014","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 12:01am","epoch":1461023760,"text":"It could really use a restart button for levels."},{"author_name":"Spud","author_uid":"84747","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 12:19am","epoch":1461024840,"text":"Cool game, though I couldn't finish the 4th level"},{"author_name":"emmelineprufrock","author_uid":"22454","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 3:18am","epoch":1461035580,"text":"Interesting.

One play the water only filled to the bottom, another time it filled to the middle, and once the water filled to the top of the level. I was unable to get to the ship successfully.
