Voice recordings really adds smthing.
Graphics are nice too
The kraken was great, I got mjolnir just in time to avoid it with the spacebar. This definitely has a lot of potential for something more after LD!
I've been nicely suprised with the voice to hear about the story, and with the details you provided, like the names next to the islands.
There have been 2 things that killed it a bit to me. The first thing was the replay that restarted completely, restarting ingame would have been nice. And the second thing was about the controls of the boat, I've been quite surprised that turning left or right was also moving the boat forward.
My only complaint is that is a little bit too easy.
The movement might be better (for me at least) if it were relative to the local rotation instead of the camera.
Great job!!
The narrative and theme of the game is really good, and the story enjoyable enough. I would love to see a more refined version with detailed stories about the relics and how we got it/or how it was placed there.
