My biggest grief is the controls. Although it's a very fun idea to use the rudder and sail to control the boat, the actual movement of the ship feels avery unphysical. Of course, although I would have enjoyed a physics-based solution, it's a game and the controls can be just fun.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":739720,"author_name":"Luis Felipe Patrocinio","author_uid":"luis-felipe-patrocinio","epoch":1633529816,"text":"I missed the option to play on the keyboard, and it took me a while to realize that the bottom bar was the ship's life (despite having in the tutorial, haha).

Everything is hyper efficient. Would've love to see a bit more visual and audio feedback when I get hurt, it was a bit confusing at first and it would improve greatly the game feel. I'm not sure about the sail control though, I think the wheel was already great on it's own. Anyway, good job and keep on going mate !
