Oh :/ sorry for that. I guess you're the first person who had this issue trying to play our game. Does it freeze in some specific moment during the gameplay? or the game isn't even able to start?

The app was in windowed mode, I saw the menu screen then I did not see the mouse anymore, windows did not react to keyboard shortcuts even Taskmanager wasn’t working. Does the app write a logfile?

The game reminded something of a Raft, namely the extraction of resources passing by.

 Great job!

Hey this game is really cool! Catching the materials, not drowning, not going insane, managing HP all work together pretty nicely to make the game pretty tense considering how short it is. the turnbased RPG combat was a really nice surprise!

Great game! The grid attack reminded me a lot of those old Mario RPGs where you had to time your attacks just right to get the modifier. I had a lot of fun with this one and could definitely see this get expanded with multiple enemy/attack types.

Nice job!

Thank you for the review and tips. Yeah, it would be very fun to expand the types of enemies and attacks as you said. I also portrayed it on my mind during the development ʅ( ՞ਊ՞)ʃ definitely a thing that should be tried in the future!
