Thanks for the feedback.

That's cool to play! I could definitely see myself playing this on mobile while on the train. However, I struggled at first because I was using WASD, and the tutorial didn’t recognize it as completed. I didn’t think to use the arrow keys.

Developer

Thanks! Ah good catch. Looks like I got to fix that bug.

That's pretty nice and polished!  Great Job!

Developer

Thanks!

Congrats on your submission!
I really like the transition between the calm water and the storm. The wave picking up, the rain, the ambiance., it all goes together really nicely well done!
The only feedback I would give is maybe the camera angle or the height of the obstacles, sometimes you can't really see where to go so you need to guess. It could be interesting to have some sort of visuals to display the correct corridors. 

Good job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! That's a great idea. Like a preview of what is coming? Or maybe an additional indicator up at the top?

Possibly, I had the idea of something like guitar hero where you see the upcoming obstacles, but then you wouldn't check the game at all and you would be focused on that UI instead. What could be done would be to have 5 corridors with a slight overlay on the ones available. It entirely depends on what your ideas are ;)

It has moments when it becomes difficult, like an arcade game. Nice!

Developer

Thanks!

Cool game, movement was fluid (no pun intended). It would be cool if there was some way to speed up to avoid big obstacles

Developer

Thanks for the input! Yea, that's a great idea. If I expand on this game, I will definitely include some sort of power up or accelerator for the boat's speed. Like upgrades or something?

Submitted

Really liked the game, it gets a bit difficult but it's very solid! 

Developer

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed playing the game.
