Survive the rabbitslove the mechanics on this! i could space out and do this for hours, kind of in the same token as lazy cleaning games such as Viscera Cleanup Detail
great work!

KenneymariCute game. I definitely love the aesthetic and graphics of the game, along with that great royalty free song. Controls definitely take some getting used to but it's still quite fun to play. I think it has potential to be more. The aesthetic reminds me of those passive games like unpacking and I do like that style.
Cool and simple concept, much more addicting than I thought. It was very relaxing and satisfying. I agree with some of the comments that I would like to spend the money on something like upgrades. I like the controls. More variety of maps would be cool, like a volcano or other more exotic places. Nicely done! A+
Brilliant idea! Really enjoyed playing! I did find myself wanting to be able to spend the money I was earning though - maybe a shop that gave you upgrades would be a nice addition. You could improve boat speed, agility, scoop size etc.

The Last TreeFun little game. And wow, all those people driving by the canal and throwing their trash into the water are just the worst!

A Very Plane GameWith the physics being equally unpredictable, it becomes a challenge of efficiency - the unending task to collect as much as possible in a single run. You’re not aware of an item’s value until you guide it to the collect point - but you also equally concerned about continued access across the section of the canal.
There are some persistent problems with where items land in the canal (mainly out-of-bounds beyond the fence to the left or the buoys to the right) and items in the corners of the play space.
Fun game though, had some performance issues on Opera GX - but turned out to be fine on Firefox / MS Edge. 👍
Really nice physics! I enjoyed it. It is nice to see games about the environment . Nice one!

Growing TogetherCaptain Trashdog and his Riverboat Quest to Clean the Canal is an inspirational social commentary on the world's exponentially growing problem with pollution. CTAHRQTCTC exposes the player directly to an unmanageably expanding amount of filth they have absolutely no hope of cleaning up with their tiny little boat. I think that it's the hopelessness in the situation that creates the drive for the player to do what little they can to save the canal. There is definitely something satisfying about dumping larger and larger piles of unwanted couches, bathtubs and birthday cakes into what can only be described as the city's water supply to repay the villainous city dwellers for their wanton disregard of mother nature.
