Great job, great work. I like the sound effects used, a background track would have been great.

I did find a small issue though - the crabs tended to go to the top left, so i just stayed there and kept clicking......

Fun game, I really like that you had the combo system showing "x6" or however many you'd gotten. Mechanics like those are always fantastic

The concept of the game is simple but so satisfying when you hit a crab! Sometimes the crabs despawn really quick though but awesome game overall :)

What a satisfying crunch! The spikes are such a clever touch, and really make it so you can't just spam. I loved the variety of grabs and assets on the board. Such a fun and polished little game, thanks for making it!

Good game. I loved the crunch sound, sounds like a bag of chips. Now I'm hungry. It's simple and therefore easy to understand, but I missed some background music.

Simple concept but amazingly executed, the sound feedback on crushing a crab makes it so much more satisfying. The crabs dig into the sand really quickly so it is annoying to get them sometimes, but that adds to the challenge of the game and makse playing for a new highscore more fun

Overall a good game!

Crunchiness 10/10

Speed of crabs: Too fast. Can also sometimes spawn at the edges, head towards the edges and immediately despawn.

Bug: I can still smash crabs and change the score after dying lol

Thanks for the feedback. The 'crunchiness' really does make up for at least 60% of the game haha. For the crabs spawning right at the edge of the screen, that's probably an aspect ratio problem. Do you know what aspect ratio you're computer is using? 

For the bug you found, the main score does not change even if you smash the crabs after dying so I just didn't bother fixing it haha. 

Thanks for playing the game!
