Like it never occurred to me for a while that I was able to go into the water without dying.\n\nOther than that and a few bugs the game is good. The art is incredible; and I see that most of you are 3D artists so that makes sense lol. Great game!

I appreciated the effort you put into make a nice in-game start screen and how-to screen before getting into the game.  I like the concept (kind of has a katamari damacy feel).  One suggestion I have is to put a retaining wall around the level; i wandered to far north and ended up falling off of the map :laughing: ","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":791260,"author_name":"digitaldude555","author_uid":"digitaldude555","epoch":1649174551,"text":"Decent game, I like the music and character design but there wasnt much to the gameplay, it would be cool if the tower had physics.

Collectible objects also dont disappear when they go off the map. The water level rises too slow at first, and i dont know if youre supposed to have a limited swim time? but if so its too long.","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":791266,"author_name":"eggland_games","author_uid":"eggland-games","epoch":1649174598,"text":"The visual style of this game is really nice. \nI think the gameplay could use some work. I did not really understand what I need to do or how I can win.\nThe controls felt a bit clumsy. I think that a 2D world might have been better to keep the controls simple and intuitive.\n\nThe music is great. it really fits in with the game. \nAlso the drawings at the beginning look amazing. \nThe sailor is a really nice, kind of funny character.","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":791384,"author_name":"Bamuko","author_uid":"bamuko","epoch":1649175072,"text":"Salut, thank you for your game.

For sure it's to clear that it's possible to go in watter. We tought that we could possibily put a timer when you go in water (ex: 5 secs).
