The idea is very original and well executed. The visuals are amazing, the gameplay is fun and addictive, and the music is very good. I had a really good time with this game. Well done!

How does you game fit the theme?
The objective of the game is to save ships, wich think they are lost and alone in the storm, and make them reach the safe port with the help of a lighthouse.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes!
All Music, Code and Design was made by us in the course of one week, apart from a few free sound effects and icons.

14 notes afterQuite fun game, enjoyed playing it. The gameplay feels unique and mechanics simple enough to grasp straight away. The visual presentation gives the game this eerie and kind of tense atmosphere. I suppose the spawns and speeds were randomized, but some of the monsters were very fast in the first levels.
Great job!

The Three WanderersNice idea, had a little trouble figuring out the monster. But had fun.

By Your SideReally nice idea for a game.
Execution is also really nice making for a relaxing backdrop with tense moments as you try to weave monsters and ships to their respective destinations.
Enjoyed this one, great game!

Escape The UnknownVery innovative. The music, art, and gameplay are great. Maybe add some bonuses/upgrades that allow you to see if there are boats or monsters coming? Maybe add some boats with lights so you know they aren't monsters for variety (could do the opposite for some monsters).
This is like the 4th game I've played in the jam using light focusing in different ways. This is mine that does that also: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-8/rate/1675396
