Island Catcher by Poller
A Small World, floating in space, surrounded by mysterious islands...

Now its up to your finger-force to collect all islands around your small world.
If you start the game hit the flower(or check the highscores first), at first just type your name, set the lifetime(8/12/18 seconds) and the ammount of islands(2/3/4).
Hit the flower again and the adventure beginns. Type the words as fast as your fingers allow. If one of the islands floats to long its going to void. This will cause half of your island break away(with the corresponding points and 1 of your initial 3 lifes).
If all of your lifes are gone, you lost, and (if no problems in my system occour) your final score is submitted to the global Highscore list.
EDIT: cause sometimes there are no highscores set ill add a 2nd version on itch.io(same link just below) with a logger attatched. if you have this problem may consider use this version to localize the bug(helps me learning). but please just rate the original version WITH BUG. (fair for all).
Here at https://poller2810.itch.io/island you find the package with the game and the full eclipse project in 2 downloads for your playtesting! if any errors or questions occur feel free to email me(see screenshot for message) ill respond as fast as possible.

Nice work, didn't take many seconds to understand the point :D
It is easy to jump in and play, which I appeciate, and the graphics and colour scheme are bright and fun.
I'm also impressed you got a leaderboard up there, talk about creating replay value ;) Great job!
The bad part is when a new word appears the camera is not always showing it and this makes me miss a lot of words. This should be improved easly.
I liked the voice acting sound effects, a nice touch xD.
you boosted me to 20 rates in under 1 day. thats so nice! <3
for all whos scores arent in the leaderboard:
due to the fact i nearly never did webdev before(1 sql connection in my life, doesnt count right?) i have no clue why sometimes no leaderboard score is uploadet but for next time i hope i got the solution.
