Use of the limitation
All monsters take one hit from the player character to be defeated. And the three "lives" or docks that the player has only take one hit from a monster to break. I initially was going to bend/break the limiatation for the player character making them invincible becuase defeating monsters is done through direct collision with the player. But then part way through explosive sea mines were thought of as a hazard, but I did not have time to implement them. And right now I am realizing I could have made the player character only invincible during its lunge/attack. But that might have made it a little frusturating...

Hi, the game looks very cool and the concept is simple and works well. I just don't understand how the score works because after a few seconds it goes back to zero.

Nice detailed description about the limitation here!! The game had some really cute assets. Was a little buggy at times but is understandable!! Was a good one.
Good luck for the jam I hope you enjoy other games too<3
