Well, finding this as a person who also made a game about stuff falling off a boat, it's hard not to feel a little called out lol. you did yours in 3d, and that's, like, a whole extra D. :raised_hands: I didn't have a 2nd player but trying to play both 1P and 2P replicated coop chaos quite nicely. IDK if I really figured out how to control it but it was so characterful it was a fun experience. I thought the way you visualised the waves was LUXE!

Game is what it needs to be. I like the music choice and gameplay is smooth. Graphics can be a bit fast sometimes which is hard on the eyes but they bled togheter very well. Well done!

Funny and stylish characters (two sailors) and a cool sea. The music went well with the pace of the gameplay

Fun game! A bit similar concept to my compo game. :D Graphics are great and good choice of music. I think that boat movements seem a bit too random and unpredictable. Being able to play with a friend is a nice idea. :) Overall great entry!

Wow! Your graphics and audio worked so well together. I loved the idea and it was pretty fun. In the future, I would add more objects that the player could move around with the mouse or something to balance the boat. Also, maybe a more direct indicator of your stability could help, just a small stability bar in addition to the coins.

Cool game! I really like the song in which I can see myself as pirate) I'd like to see how much coins I have on the screen. Congrats!
