How does your game fit the theme?
The storm in the game represents the mental storm people go through before facing real life struggles. Sometimes managing the anxiety can feel like staying afloat on a boat doomed for failure and not knowing how you came out of it alive until you have.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. :p

Very well made game! I like the graphics and the sounds! More then calm BEFORE the storm here it is calm DURING the storm! ahahah

It is relaxing and hard at the same time, very well done!

Very smooth and well-executed. Fun little rhythm game.

Interesting little game about rythm mechanics. Music can be improved to match more with rowing. I will give extra stars for making your own assets, respect.

Very simple, but pulled off very well. Great music and visual style. Shame most of my time was spent focusing on the bar at the bottom and not enjoying the rest of the visuals!

Encountered a tiny bug: After failing I restarted and was immediately shown the dev signatures and "The End" over the start of the game. They then didn't show at the end.

I mean, it's a rhythm game, not much to say. Good work, no bugs, the music could be more exciting, but I also didn't make it to the end cause I'm bad.

Fun little rythmn game! I was a little confused as to when I had to press space at first and reading the left and right inputs so far apart was a little hard for me, but maybe that's a skill issue on my part. I'd like if there was something telling the player how good they did at the end. Well done though!

Great little game, although if there was a fail state i wasn't sure of how close to failing I was

Nice rhythm game! I didn't manage to reach the end, I'm not too good at those kinds of games ^^'

the rythm was good but its need more buildup i think since it just 1 level, but overrall its a great game

I liked the music and rythm integration. The design is simple but it fits the game. The "press spacebar" timing is not very clear though. Keep going ! :)
