  • Incredible. What a story. On a serious note, I really appreciated how much storytelling you were able to put into such a simple game. I appreciate that you had music and hand drawn graphics as well. The humour was fun, and I was engaged the whole time, despite a few crashes. Thanks for the game!

The game window positions itself partly outside of the screen so I can't move it or resize it and I couldn't play the game :(

Developer

Sorry to hear that! What resolution are you running? Unfortunately our game is made for a resolution of 1920x1080, which we have learned is causing trouble for some players. Supporting different resolutions will be a priority going forward! Thank you for your feedback - it helps us learn and improve :)

I was on a potato running something like 1366x768. Yes, definitely games need to work on any resolution. Keep learning and you'll do great!

Window incorrectly positioned and i can't see a lot of stuff. In the game a only can click to space whale and that's all

Developer

Thanks for letting us know! We'll look into it and try to fix it.

What resolution are you running? The game is made for 1920x1080. If you are running a different resolution, could you see if you get it to work with 1920x1080?

My resolution is 1366x768 and i can't make it bigger. You should make screen size adaptaion. Giving you luck with it, because i already know how to beat this problem in my games)

Developer

Thanks! That is definitely something we should look into. 😊
