The implantation of the theme was spot on. I would say the strongest part of game is the art style, it really ties the island theme together. I even noticed the attention to detail with the character sinking into the water a bit, very good touch. The music even helped with keeping the theme together, so it was a good choice. I did get confused at the start on what it was you had to do, but looking at the top right helped out with understanding, maybe it could have used stronger conveyance. Overall, pretty solid game. I would defo like to see this expanded upon. Maybe even have some nice animations to fit the dope art style. Great work!
Very on point with the theme! Took a few replays to understand the concept but it's grown on me on each play.
Would have enjoyed more if I had some understanding of why I gain money through partying / letting me groove during the party, but nonetheless good work!
Didn't really understand what to do in the game, but good job!
Theme was definitely felt in this one, Didn't really understand the game. So i just walked around and collected things. cleared the beach and had a party. Didn't feel connected to the island but i respect the amount of work that went into the game. 2 for enjoyment and 5 for theme!
Nice concept, the theme and the vibe check are really on point, did not play too long because not really my type of game but still enjoyed the process of discovering it
Yeah, I was going for an animal crossing sort of feel, not everyone's cup of tea. thanks for trying it out!
Cozy vibe game, I like the simple UIs and the overall experience
The UI is something I'd have liked to improve -- maybe make some dropdowns or something. too much text on the screen at once!
Very relaxing vibe, I did not do a great job promoting my party, only one dude showed up, but I enjoyed the island anyway.
I suppose I could change it so a group always shows up, but you nly make money based on how much food and necklaces you make!
first, the crabs are so cute!
I found 0 bugs in my playthrough, but I did have trouble remembering how many guests I had added to my party to get enough necklaces and food (Idk if those affect how many guests I can have, but I did get this cool picture in a duck floaty:
Yeah, I could have been clearer on that -- one food and one necklace per guest (or use the "add four guests" to cheat in 4 guests worth of stuff!)
