great way to twist the theme and made something a bit different, there is a lot about the storytelling and the lense of each player, great atmosphere

Good artstyle, I liked your take on the theme. The map felt huge, but the fog of war did help with me not getting as lost :p Some ground colliders were a little rough though.

A somber mood through great artworks and some good writing! The gameplay fits as the repeated inputs let you concentrate on the atmosphere. Love it!

I oared around for a good amount of time and I think i discovered everythin, but I did not find any other objective 🤔

Nice ambience and textures!

I am sorry but couldnt get what to do after carrying the light to the tornado. Still, nicely done!

Some good stuff here! I enjoyed the visuals on this one, I liked the way the fog parted and the ripple effects all around the water. The paddling mechanic was simple but satisfying as a way to move. Liked the slow, chill methodical pacing of it. I could definitely see this being built out with characters that have extra story as you ferry them to the tornado- there were hints of that in the man you ferry over.

This is a slow but good game. The art is really good and the sounds and background noises of the game really make it all fit together well. Great job!

I so loved the paddle mechanics, graphic, story and mood were really good. I was just missing some simple enemies you shouldn't touch or something like that. Also, after tornado, didn't know what to do.

I really like the rowing mechanic, and the character art is great too! I always love small narrative games where you have a simple action that keeps you busy while various dialogues happen. This feels like it could really become something cool with a bit more content! Great work.

I like the unusual concept, and the rowing is a really nice way of getting around. Great stuff.
