Loved being a very momentum-driven, angry tuna. Top-notch sound effects and comedic tone. Felt like there was some tension between the precision dodging of torpedoes and the control scheme, but broadly enjoyed this.
I hope the control scheme added some fun for all 10 days!
The sounds/music were quite fun and I thought the cursor control was just difficult enough that it became fun. Occasionally the shark would start whipping around in a circle XD
Some call that the coveted Whirlwind Technique™ ;)
Thank you for the feedback!
The sound design was hilarious, and I thought the mechanic with the shark connected to the cursor with a loose spring gave the game an added sense of zaniness that fit with the writing and sound and made it stand out from similar types of games. Good stuff.
Thank you for your feedback!
Pretty fun game with a unique style! Love how levels progress by adding new obstacles+content rather than artificial difficulty increases like lower health. Also, you definitely made an effort to create everything yourself and it really adds to the charm.
P.S. The coveted Whirlwind Technique™ always works except for most of the time when it doesn't
It was a dream of mine to make a game's content all by myself. Thank you for your feedback!
The technique requires precise strikes across the waters, done right you are unstoppable!
