The controls are a bit difficult but it really was the most intense crab simulator ive tried :)

i like how the music plays in my left ear -
also good to see that you have it branded on itch as a "crab experience"

1.5/5 i'm a fan of crabs but the clipart could be better

hold on i don't understand how you had three people work on this barely functional joke game that could be assembled in 5 minutes, over the course of 34 commits over a timespan of 3 days - i am honestly baffled the game itself is barely functional yet you set up a complex animated rig for the crab and ripped a comprehensive state machine model for your code from the godot demos - how could this happen

It's a tad jank, but it has charm. :crab:

It took a while to get used to the movement, but I guess I just wasn't CRAB enough to fully immerse. Once I completely embodied the spirit of CRUSTACEAN, I was able to hone my exoskeleton and survive for 45 seconds.

Good luck for the rest of rating season, and stay crabby.

The art is pretty. Not much to go on. A restart button would be dope, so I could try again to challenge myself.

I survived! Once I accepted that the controls would only let me move down at an angle I was able to dance around the fish easily until I accidentally only pressed the down key and it froze the controls. Overall there was charm and there was crabs and that's all one can ask for.

(Restart button would be lovely though)
