i liked that, though some balls cant be collected
Cool consistent art style and fun gameplay! Yeah, didn't get "going to rigth" at the start, wandered for some time. Seagull animation is great!
I didn't get to eat the impending-doom-seagull for revenge as a big crabbo :(
"Going right to win" is not quite obvious - I started exploring the map and went left on my first time and didn't quite understand why I'm not making progress
Yeah sorry about that. I was going to make some tutorial messages but ran out of time. I tried to help a little with the progress bar at the bottom but clearly could have done more. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for playing. :)
the big crabbo eats all! nice and fun game! keep the good work!
Cool game, Crab shady approves!
Thank you fellow crab game enjoyer!
nice idea and cool mechanics! maybe to be able to reach the goal faster would be nice
Crabbo is cute ! The seagull mechanic is nice ! Fun game. Good job ! :-)
Fun little game! The seagulls were a fun mechanic!
The crab is so adorable. I really like the the effect that happens when the seagulls appear really great. Fun game :)
A fun casual game, it got kinda time consuming trying to grow by getting new shells when the others would swap after picking one up. I think the seagull events stopped happening after a certain time.
Yeah, they stop once you get big enough. I was gonna have UI to show this but… ⏰
Good entry, I liked the crab art.
Stylish!
that's awsome!!, the story sounds good if this game have a story
Very chill game. Was fun playing it altough it was a little bit too easy. Maybe add less food and make the seaguls a litte bit harder to evade.
Very nice seashore vibes! I also loved how the game has zoomed out every time I've found the right shell. Wasn't obvious why smaller shells (red arrows) became bigger shells (green arrows) after I'd grabbed a shell with a green arrow.
The only answer here is bad programming. I didn’t know a good way to make sure you could get slightly bigger shells as the game went on, so every time you pick one up, it recalculates all the shells to a new size that can range from -0.1 smaller, or 0.5 bigger.
Thanks for playing!
You really got the atmosphere nicely done with the seagull mechanic on top of it.
Super cute and I love the crab animation! The shell spawning could use a bit of refining since the sometimes spawned super close to each other or on top of rocks that I couldn't reach but small and cute game overall
Cute, I'm sad I didn't think of a crab shell! Other than that, not too challenging.
A simple concept with a lot of polish and unique mechanics sprinkled in, with a lovely basic story.
Please put Point no filter on your pixel textures.
Pretty cool!
