Beautiful game, Loved the pixel art UI with everything having a bit of animation, and the gameplay loop is also quite satisfying. Transitions could be a little faster and some animations (like walking) could be improved. And I found a small bug, if I keep attacking enemies while they are doing the dying animation, it keeps repeating the animation. Other than that, fun game!

Good entry to the jam! I liked the pixel art look of the game and the atmosphere. Seems like you had good attention to detail with particles, stretching to the character and fireflies at night. However, gameplay wise I do have to say between the islands I think there was a lack of a variation between each place and eventually the combat did become stale after a while. I think travelling between islands is a nice choice that the player can make but each island looks and feels the same as all the other ones. However, there was a nice change up with the boss on the final island who I felt was a tad bit too easy but as this is a game jam those things can always be polished through playtesting after. Nevertheless, this is a good and welcome entry to the game jam so well done!

Water water everywhere, but so salty :) I liked this game, but the enemies are too difficult for me. The graphics looks interesting, you even made lighting in this 2d game, cool

Nice game! The only thing that I didn't understand is uprgardes. I bought all the upgrades but looks like my damage didn't increase because I always kill islander with 5 hit by sword.

I love pirate and island hopping games (big fan of Don't Starve Shipwrecked). You did pretty well with this one. Graphics are  outstanding, I like how much attention you dedicated to all these little details (like the birdies flying away and coming back).

The "thirst" meter and  how game uses that word confused me at first (maybe because there is no good word for not being thirsty?), but then I decided "well, for me it is just the other way around" - and from there things went smoothly.

Good game!

This was fun! pretty relaxing running around searching for clues. love the art, great work!

Nice game, the art is great, if a little inconsistent: some assets, such as the upgrades, are a completely different style from others.

IMHO it is also a bit too long for a jam game; advancing through levels offers no new mechanics, so having fewer but better polished levels could have served the game better.

Cute game, but gameplay a bit boring

It's a cute little game. The masked spearmen are rough! It did crash my browser with the first text window showing up every time. With the download version it worked fine until the "You Lost" UI - can't click for the main menu. I like the game play though. It's simple, and challenging to get supplies and water.

It sucks to say this but it froze all the time at a textbox event (on web and the app). I'm sure it would've been a great game :(

Developer

The game works on windows, linux or mac, and also on some browsers

Submitted

But it still freezes after it says "after rehydrating I feel healthier". I tried multiple times and it still froze at some point.

The downloadable builds will 100% work

Submitted

I said I already tried the downloadable builds and they won't freeze. I'll try it a couple more times just for reassurance though.

Developer

You can just play any of the downloadable builds if they won't freeze

Submitted

I tried again and left clicking still won't make the ui progress/close

make sure the end of the mouse pointer is hitting continue rather that the center, it rotates a bit due to a bug so youll have to adjust accordingly

Ive also linked a gameplay video on the game page if you want to see it and its not working still

Developer

Developer here, if the game isn't working well on the browser, you may need to use a different browser (firefox should work well) or download the game.
