I got stuck in the door between the first and second map on my first try by going up and then really fast going back down if that makes sense but funny game!

I love the start of this game kinda felt like an original Zelda game on the beach. I was confused running around for a bit then I remembered the theme and you did a good job!

This game is hilarious. I love the style. It took me a little while to figure out what to do at first but then I got into it. Two thumbs up!

The clam was obnoxious but kinda funny.

The skeletons being the only enemy and being mostly non-threatening made the overworld a little bit on the boring side. I also couldn't find any use for the gold you collect, but maybe I'm missing something.

It took me a while to figure out how to kill the Flying Dutchman - I was about to give up then I damaged him by accident. Some sort of indication that the arms are vulnerable after punching, like changing color or something, would be nice.

Overall short and sweet game, and everything works, though it can be a bit tricky to figure out what do do at times. Good work.

The game was nice, although the shells swearing felt more obnoxious than funny. Other than that, I liked it a lot!

liked it a lot, my only complaint is that the skull on the barrels make them look like they should explode and hurt you

Okay, loved the sassy clam. Hilarious. And I loved the artwork!

Unfortunately, I couldn't really find my way around :( Despite only being able to look at the map in the starting area, I memorized what I thought the path to the X should be, but following that didn't seem to work. I tried a few times, but eventually it just felt like an endless generation of rooms with no indication that I was going in the right direction.

You might consider how you could tweak the design to help dumb players like me :)
