one of the best game jam games i've played, was having fun the whole time and laughing at the mechanics and the boat sinking, felt fluid to play and i loved the balance of fending off the fish , repairing the boat and scooping out the water, the boss did get a bit frustrating because of how slow it went, and the feedback on the spear felt off, i feel like you could have gotten away with making the boss attack stun long enough for them to take 2 hits more commonly or something like that to help speed up the fight, in love with the project regardless, a perfect little jam game
Thank you for playing! I'm very glad you enjoyed it so much!
good job great game!!
Great mechanics, felt very responsive and fun to play, although feels unforgivably challenging by level 3 ^_^ I wasn't able to get any further but this is a very well executed concept!
Great game I really like your character sprite.
It's made by Penzilla on itch.io. You can find it here: https://penzilla.itch.io/protagonist-character
Fun game! I like the water physics inside the boat and really enjoyed the gameplay loop.
The game is pretty hard but its good though. Nice job!
Might be the most original game I've played this jam so far, VERY cool!
I think level 3 might be a little too hard, but I eventually managed to beat it.
There's a ?bug? where the fish will sometimes get on top of your boat and then it automatically sinks which is a little annoying but other than that very impressive game!
Amazing job!
Thank you for playing! Only got time to make 5 levels so I tuned up the difficulty "a little bit" ^ ^
Very nice concept and very good of Physics in Unity. Like the little details like the water that starts feeling up the boat from the top when it loose buoyancy.
Very cool game! I get stuck on level 3... I died when I only have to survive for 3 seconds. Too many piranhas for me! If you want, you can play my game here: https://itch.io/jam/-pixel-game-jam-2024/rate/2718966
Thank you! Your game is harder than mine!
Simple concept but such good ideas with the different levels! Very cute, and pretty hard too when it got to the end.
Only issue I have are the controls, I wish it was just a little bit less intuitive as my toon kept sliding forward when I didn't want to, and I wish there was a jump function, it would help with bailing the water out and getting to another area of the boat there were two holes in the boat beside me.
Overall, very good!
Thank you for playing! You can jump by pressing Space. You are a legend not using jump and reached the end......
Oh! no idea why that didn't work for me when I hit spacebar, so I thought there was no jump function lol. I'll try it again
It's amazing
It was good but I got stuck at lv 3 and it lagged bad sometimes there. but overall good game.
Haha level 3 is a big leap from tutorials. You need fast hands and reaction to pass.
Really enjoyed this one, it was a lot of fun!
It's so funny! I like this mechanic!
