When I saw those hilarious lips on that puffer fish I didn't know what I was getting into. I'm glad I gave it a shot! It was actually pretty satisfying moving that puffer fish into the proper paths. I laughed nearly every time I dragged her across a ceiling. Managed to make it to the end with 2 deaths along the way!

Fun and challenging. I liked having to figure out how to use the puffer fish to cross gaps. A menu at the beginning would have been really nice.

Controls are not working properly at some times
Hard to understand what you need to do
Overall nice game about cooperative work, there is no much games like this

I like this game! It's clever and fun to play through the series of increasing challenges. Controls are little bit rough, would like puffer fish to be less sticky to the walls. But it's well done job anyway! Also like relaxing soundtrack :)

Unique game and nice art, loved the sound track with it too! The puzzle element of this game has been so well thought through and is awesome :) really relaxing to play loved it!

A bit clunky at times (probably because of WebGL, I've encountered issues with controls there), but really enjoyable and a post-jam full version might be a neat little puzzle-platformer with an interesting mechanic.

Interesting gameplay, I like the concept of the two characters depending on each other to stay alive :) Good job!

Really nice entry! I liked the controller even though it was a bit rough around the edges sometimes. Nice puzzles! Puffer fishes are the cutest.

I liked how relaxing the music is. The puffer fish tends to stick to the wall and the controls are a bit clunky. However, it is a nice little game.

Great, I love the effort you put on the crab leg animation x) the concept is cool and well executed, well done.
Was the music a remix of "Cruel Summer" from the Bananarama ? It's awesome haha

@barbiche I'm glad someone noticed. I put way too much time into that animation 😅

Anyway, I got the music from the YouTube Audio Library. It's called Ocean Beach. Here's the link:
