The music was pretty calming, and the sky animations were pretty cool. Love the artstyle.

Yea, it's repetitive, and the island's low speed gets boring quickly. Still a neat experience, thanks :)

Very pretty icon for the game! Cool with day/night cycle too. Didn't understand the gameplay though.

Next time, remember to check the "looping" checkbox in the import options for the background music!

Thank you! And yeah the gameplay suffers a bit from just lack of time spent and not clarifying it.
Aaah I thought I had it on looping :')
Hopefully a bit of the issues with gameplay though are fixed up in the after-jam patch once voting is done.

That game has an awesome vibe with the relaxed music and toon-ish style.
But the gameplay really confuses me, can I like influence the growth of the island flora at all? I didnt find any relic or danger, aside of that the ocean stopped rendering at some point lol.

As far as gameplay goes I spent 24 hours on it so it's pretty basic and unpolished. I've been contemplating on influencing the growth for future updates though. There should be acid rain clouds that spawn that will damage the island's flora as well as sea arches and music sheets that help you grow.

Yeah the ocean currently doesn't generate beyond the preset at the moment; another thing I'm aiming to update after.
