Nice graphics. Didn't know what I was doing at first.

Developer

Submitted

I really liked the graphics! nice game

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

I enjoyed the game not only for its art and gameplay, but also for its music. 
The first night was bit confusing, but after some time it was better and better!
Good job!

Developer(+1)

Yeah I know the beginning is a bit harsh but there are only two ghosts to make it simple :D Happy you liked it!

Submitted

Cool game Idea and awesome atmosphere. Keep going!

Developer

Hayppe that you liked it!

Submitted

At the beginning, I didn't understand how to score points but after the first night all was clear ! It's a enjoyable game with great ambiance ! 

Developer(+1)

I tried to write it down as many time as possible to kill ghosts with the light xD but yeah I guess its a bit different than usual platformer where you simply jump the ghosts ^^

Submitted

such a cool idea

specially the loose screen :)

Developer

Thanks a lot - Happy you Liked it!

Submitted

This was a really fun game and I'm surprised that this was made in a span of a week. I wish that it was possible to see where the ghosts would come from, as it felt like a guessing game and it felt punishing when the chests where being hit off screen. But the stress also enhanced the chaotic nature. 

Developer

Thanks - yea I thought about to indicate the Ghosts instead of the hit chest, but when I did that the game was simple wait for the Ghost at his spawn point .... was kinda boring that way.  

Submitted

Nice game! It was really stressful to have to run back and forth between the bottles and the ghosts, but in a good way. I also liked the attention to detail, like the fish swimming in the sea, though the game quickly gets repetitive, maybe you could ramp up the difficulty more quickly.

Developer(+1)

Haha, yeah I switched the bottles back and forth every day till this final stage - the difficulty is raising with each wave by a random number between 0 and 2 - so it can be 12 ghost at wave 6 or it could be just 4 - but I know what you mean - I played the game severall1000 times and know  it very well so I feel like - if I make it a bit harder and ...  well other player who did the first time said it was to hard xD 

Submitted

I love the ambiance of this game ! Cool pixel art ! Great choice of music ! And the ship tilting is well done, great idea you had.

Developer

thanks alot!

Submitted (1 edit)

Love it.  The ship tilting is such a nice effect. I do wish the help text was a bit faster, but otherwise it's great!

Developer(+1)

Yo, the effect is so suptil but very effectiv! 

(secret, I just tilt the cam 1° left and right over a 30secobd looping )  xD

Submitted

The Visuals are great, also controls feel nice! Overall Good Job!

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Not sure why my laptop can't handle this game (it's a bit laggy for me) but I know it must be on my side since everyone else got to play it! I love the visuals, the light around the character, the story line, and the pixel art! Incredible game!

I'm trying to play other games from this jam and it is on my side that the lag is happening.

Developer(+1)

Nooooooo bad Lag >.<   Hope it gets away! - Thanks for commenting tho!  

Submitted

Amazing game! Complete 10/10, awesome job!

Developer

Wohooo 10/10 for you likein it!

Submitted

Good game with a great atmosphere, really made me feel like at sea. The gameplay was great, maybe the press for help section could have the text appear faster for the player to quickly read.
Overall, great concept and good execution!

Developer

Thanks a lot! I am honored by your comment!

Submitted

Responsive controls and great art style. Well-built game. Could have used some diversity, different levels and such. Great effort!

Developer(+1)

UH thanks - yeah if I would build for a finished Game I would have done that - thought not for a gamejam

Submitted

Very good game looks really nice and the mechanics are very well thought out and really fit the theme ! 

Developer

Thanks I love it when you loved it :D

Nice graphics and atmosphere, I think longer/more levels could make the game feel whole.

Developer

Yeah xD - I thought more ploish at 1 level would be better for the GameJam ^^

Submitted

Challenging yet very playable! Theming, graphics, and atmosphere were great.

Developer

Thanks a lot! 

Submitted

Very nice game with a great atmosphere! Took me a few moments to figure out the movement, sometimes i expected to climb latters or stairs. But after that i loved it!

Developer(+1)

yeah I am sorry - I tryed to make them so dark that the idea of jumping the platforms will be present but  I know where you are going to ^^
