I liked the game, it remind me of those extremely hard browser games wich i love, the graphics are very coherent and beautiful, and so is the audio, congratulations!, we would love if you could rate our game too :)
This game was really fun! It reminds me a bit of QWOP. The player needs to get into a rhythm with the keys. It can be very challenging and a bit frustrating, but mostly in a good way. I think the audio could be expanded as right now the grunting and groaning could be a little annoying. Also it would be cool if there were some pick-ups or objectives to row towards. I pretty much just rowed randomly. Still, those are minor concerns overall. The game is a lot of fun and I think it'd be a blast to play with a friend!
Happy to hear that you had fun :D We will definitely add some music and less grunting sound once the game jam is over.
Thank you for your kind comments.
Fantastic game! The leaderboard felt sort of hidden (Didn't realise it was even there until someone showed me). Needless to say I had to come back to defend my high score!
Really novel controls, had a lot of fun. My only suggestions would be some music (a sea shanty type thing or something!) and something to do instead of just waiting around for sharks to appear.
Really solid entry, had a blast
We noticed that too. Sadly the icon was not that noticeable D: And the music .. we should have added it too xD
Thank you for your kind reply.
Great game! Really enjoying the visuals and the audio feels super polished, shame there's no music to tie it all together but a very minor complaint ^^
Yes. We should have added some music..xD Thank you.
Nice Game, I would like if there was the option to invert the letters so asd moves down and dsa up, so the player an fit to it better
Thank you for your idea! We will add that option once the game jams over. TY!!
It's not easy control for us too. lol Thank you so much xD
Great game!
Thanks!
NOICE! Artwork It's just EXCELLENT game, i am getting nerves that you will win this jam
Aww thank you so much.
Fantastic game! Polished artwork, great audio (too bad no music), very funny, but.... the boat turns in the wrong direction! :D
Yeah we figured out that today lol. We didn't make the right music in a short of time. xD
Thank you xD
I love the challenging control mechanics for this game as well as the beautiful pixelized art along with this game! It was challenging at first to steer the boat around, but I ended up getting better at it. If I was to throw a suggestion on how this game could possibly improve:
This is just how I feel about the mechanics. It may just be me, but anyway, truly amazing and spectacular game! :D (Also I would love if it there was sound too!).
Thank you for this lovely feedback.
At first we made the physics that way, but turns out it was super difficult to control. So we thought we should make this little bit easier. xD
Also we wanted to make our own music but you know.. we didn't make it in a short time. But I like the grunting sound so much.
Thanks again. :D
Happy to help! I could definitely imagine having a hard time working with physics sometimes as I still have trouble myself. The sound effects were indeed a nice touch to the game I might add 😂👍
Hi! I'll be playing Row! Harder! tomorrow on stream along with several others games from the jam at 3:30pm EST. I'll be talking about any interesting design decisions as I play, and suggesting improvements if any come to mind. Please feel free to join me live, it'll be extra fun to chat together about your game while playing it :)
Oh thank you for stopping by. 3:30 pm EST is like 5 am here. But I'll try to get up early. xD
You're a brave soul! I'll put your game towards the end of the stream if that helps :)
Here's the segment where I played your game! Thanks so much for getting up early to join me on stream, your game has such a fun personality in terms of the sound design and the unusual controls. I'd love to see collectibles and a bigger variety of enemies and obstacles to make the game longer. Very well done, keep making those great boat games haha :P
It was really pleasure to be there your stream. Definitely worth getting up early. xD
After the game jam over , we will add some features for sure.
I'm really grateful for your kind feedbacks. Thank you again. :>
Controls are funny, this could couch for sure xD
Thank you xD
Your pixel pic is awesome btw
It's always crunch time during a jam! xD Thnx
I love this man!!! So fantastically fun! Second game to get 5 all the way!
Thanks man!! Glad you liked it.
I think this is the highest rating I've given for a game so far. The controls are great and the visuals are amazing as well as the simple concept!
Aww I'm honored. Thank you so much. :D
Great controls, very funny game. Had fun :D
I'm glad you had fun. Thank you :>
Really fun, and the art is good. The controls are very interesting and unique
Thank you very much. I love your llama pic xD
I like it dude. Simple but idea is very good. Controls are enjoyable.
Thank you so much!
Good Job ! it was nice playing your game .
very good graphics!
Thank you! Glad to hear you like it :D
Awesome visuals! Kinda unforgiving at first and random generation sometimes gives you hard combination of obstacles. But overall, it's so good and satisfying to the eyes. Great job!
We did want to make good random generation but we were really short of time xD
Thank you very much !!
Nice controls!
Thank you!
