I really hope to see this game released!!
Very fun and unique game! The art style is great
This game is amazing, the look reminds me a lot of Wind Waker's, and it fits the theme extremely well! Great job!
Also, how did you make the wind effect? I'm very curious, it looks amazing!
Thanks for the comment! Yeah wind walker was kinda an inspiration ^^
And the wind is just an unity particles system and some tweeking, basiscly you just add a trail and give them a velocity over time following a custom curve
Fun game. Looks really good and the physics are fun to play with. I found it got a little repetitive after about 20 kids, could do with a few more mechanics to add depth, such as moving obstacles (shark maybe?), or even having obstacles in the sky as well, so you have to be paying attention to both the hook AND the cloud. In any case, still a great game as is. Love the music, too.
Yes it was planned, unfortunately we ran out of time to add the sharks 😅
really fun idea executed in game... had a blast playing it couple of times 😄
I like the kidnapping idea, it is effective and funny. The mum is a bit crazy but I like how straight forward she is. The art is cool and impressive. I like the way you handle the tutorial, and the audio reminds me Overcooked. The drowning sound is a good choice and matches the overall style. Well done!!!
This game is FUN! Love the controls and the music had me jamming out. Design was fun and effective. The gameplay felt great. I wish there was a way to push people away from rocks/obstacles (like blowing a gust of wind from the cloud?) so that the wouldn't automatically drown if I picked them up next to a rock. All in all, really great submission.
Xd nice idea, like a fus ro dah? It can be really fun
Super cute! Love the graphics and the sound design, certainly a novel concept and definitely fulfils the theme of the jam! Satisfying gameplay loop, and well designed instructions, certainly easy to learn the ropes.
Very interesting gameplay mechanic. I found it a bit frustrating when the 1 character you need spawns next to an obstacle and instantly swings into it.
Overall its a great package
Amazing graphics - very consistent and characteristic style. Cool sounds, especially these cute screams when picking somebody up. Game difficulty smoothly increases in time and becomes challenging. The game is a complete piece of art, you may consider extendig it into a commercial product. Hard to believe you managed to do all of this just in one week.
Thank you very much for the heart-warming comment ! We really appreciated it !
Thank you for the nice comment!
Amazing game! The idea is really good and well executed! The graphics are really cute, the music is catchy, and it's an original interpretation of the theme!
My only little nitpick is that it was a bit repetitive... I would have liked some small gameplay changes between each run, but otherwise, I really enjoyed it. Very good job =)!
Really love this game! Such a sweet interpretation of the theme, and so well crafted. Brilliant job!
Game is very cool and fun with amazing graphics.
Theme is on point and the way you explain the mechanics is very funny and engaging.
Overall funn experience, would like some more progression... after bringing a couple of friends felt like it was always the same.... hook was punishing some times.
very cool art. it is fun to play.
Of course you would go the kidnapping route, how can we forget that ahah. Very entertaining and fun to play. Awesome work.
Thanks for your feedback ! Glad you liked our game ;)
Very great game! Personally my favourite in the jam. Maybe adding kraken tentacles popping up randomly to increase the difficulty would be cool.
Yeah, we had that in mind or sharks that moves around the map, but we lacked of time, same for the dificulty scale.
Thanks for your test and comment :)
This was a lot of fun. Great little jam game. Congrats on finishing and submitting!
The core loop is very simple yet satisfying. Fetch quests aren't terrible when they're this straight-forward and quick! The sfx and music really stand out here. The goofy little voices and drowning sound are light enough to offset the fact that you're kidnapping and drowning people. The music gives everything a bit of a whimsical vibe that matches super well.
The biggest areas of improvement, for me, would be the camera and the obstacles. The camera felt a little too close such that moving down felt awkward and slow, while moving up felt great. Pulling the camera out a bit more would give the player more opportunity to react to those foreground objects and making finding your target a bit more manageable. The obstacles were mostly fine, but I didn't realize the coral could also detach grabbed guests. I don't know if this is because they didn't stand out enough, or if my brain thinks of coral as "underwater only", or both. Once I realized they were knocking away my hooks, it made more sense though.
Congrats team. You all made a super cool little game. Well done!
Thank you so much for leaving such a constructive comment ! We really appreciate your feedback ! We will surely try to improve our game after the jam while taking into account your advice !
❤
The art and sound design are amazing ! I love the sound characters do when Mum graps them :D
Congrats, it was a funny little game !
Thank you very much !

I hate being the parent that accidentaly drowns their child's friend...
