Ahh, it's so meditative, I really enjoyed it. Maybe adding more variety in audio and new window to put away your collectables to later overview them would make it even better. I really like the interpretation of this theme. Good job!!

It's very enjoyable to play, and I really relaxed. The sound of the sea may seem trivial, but what could be better than the sounds of nature? The graphics are cute, remind me of my childhood.

I really miss games like this! It’s such a relaxing experience, enjoyable to play, and most importantly, everything feels complete — not a hint of discomfort while playing!

Feel relaxed.The shadow transformation is a pleasant surprise; it genuinely gives the feeling of clouds drifting across the sky. If the audio were louder and richer—perhaps by adding sounds like seagulls—it might be even better.

Cute game!! I love the art, it's very pretty. I feel like it would be even more satisfying if the collectibles disappeared when you put them in the bottle. I loved the little hermit crab.

Neat game. I think it could've done with a bit of a message at the start saying what my goal was. At first I was just trying to put everything into the jar. It was great though that when I did eventually find a coin the jar jingled so I knew I had it right.

I wish I could have used the little hermit crab? to help me find stuff.

Interesting game! I love the sound of the sea, and I think more rules and targets can be set to make it fun.

the drag and drop was really lazy with a lot of delay when i was playing , maybe make it more responsive, except from this very chill and calm experience.

@truedat did you have hardware acceleration enabled? I get 120fps

hey red no. so when i click on a item and drag it , the item doesnt move at all but with a 1 or 2 seconds delay it comes after the mouse, this kinda feels like a slow lerping between mouse postion and item position, tested it again and still is. the strange behaviour is seen when dragging an item very fast through the screen...

@truedat you should enable hardware acceleration for web games, that should hopefully solve it.

I loved bothering the hermit crab on screen :p
Very pretty and relaxing game!

I just found one small bug, the hermit crab keep running if you have it in hand, and it teleports to your cursor if you move it

This was such a vibe! I really enjoyed my time with this one, I kept pulling the hermit crab back across the screen before he could walk offscreen. Very relaxing!

The hermit crab was cute, haha! Really loved the visuals, super unique and cozy. The whole vibe was super chill, and the gameplay matched that perfectly. Great job, keep it up!
