I really like the presentation and use of limitation. Reminds me a lot of that old Mario Twins flash animation.
I absolutely LOVED the music and sound effects. It made me laugh out loud, thank you for that.
The puzzles are quite simple and could use a little bit more spice, but overall the result is very nice, great entry :thumbsup:
I really like your game, especially music and sound effects, I would like to see more levels and new mechanics :)
i loveee the puzzles! very creative mechanics and a great mash of turn based and puzzle. music and graphics are cute. but i think there is a bug when you go on a big wave at 0 you get stuck there and can't move. overall well done, it'd be cool if you played mine! excited to see more levels :)
also your windows download doesnt work! this tutorial could work :)
Thank you for the heads up and the tutorial!
SUCH a fun game! It's really simple but even in just a few levels I feel like you got a lot out of the gameplay and the hazard variations. Also I have to give it BIG points for the cute art style and lovely acapella music
Fun but short puzzle game, with an interesting set of mechanics. SFX and Music were good.
The only issue I had was getting stuck on waves when they respawned, which was a bit annoying.
Would like to see more levels and mechanics in the future.
Good work.
Thank you! I am glad you liked it. Yeah the wave bug is known. I have a fix ready but i was just too busy to post today.
Loved the presentation, sfx and bgm are genius, the mechanics are pretty fun too. I also run in some of the problems other mentioned (play area extending past the grid, getting stuck on waves) but honestly it didn't bother me too much, you can still see the intention behind the levels
Awe thank you. What is BGM? :D. I am glad the html problems were not too bad.
I mean background music, although I'm not sure "music" is the right term here :D
Loved it! Had some screen issues at first but then lots of fun! And the music was amazing
I love this game's presentation and gameplay! Really fun, would love to see more :D
Love it! Reminds me of our game! But this one has wayyy more character to it. Love it, good job man.
Thank you! I think I played your game earlier. It was great. I loved the cardboard cutout vibes
A nice, short game! The sound effects and music were quite fun, though I was shocked when I first heard them. On one of the levels with the wave, if you go on the wave tile when its at 0, the player gets stuck, is this intended?
Thank you! I am glad you liked it. No the wave catching you at zero is an unintended bug, I have resolved it and will be posting a fixed version shortly.
Awesome music, and a very well made game!
Thank you!
GREAT puzzle game -- the screen stretched out weird but thats itch.io's fault lol
Thank you for playing. Haha yeah its a super strange problem, I think im just forgetting to check some box somewhere in godot, alas no luck yet with a solution.
I think there is a bug with the build on MacOS because the game freezes and tries to use %100 cpu still I could hear the sounds. it's just really unfortunate not being able to play as the game looked promising on the gifs!
Yes, apparently godot 4 html games have a problem running on mac. I am sorry for the inconvenience .
In case it helps, I had the same problem but after some minutes of waiting and selecting 'keep waiting' when the browser tries to kill the script, I managed to play on my macbook
Lovely gfx and a really nice little game, though the problem with the viewport makes it "a bit" awkward.
Oh no how much of the screen was cutoff
Hard to say since I couldn't see the whole screen, but I would guess at least half of the screen ...
Did you try changing the browser zoom on the page? I have heard that work for other people. If not, could you, and then get back to me.
Hello, I talked with some people and they said that perhaps its your browser zoom so if you want to try again later, you can click outside the game and CTRL- and CTRL+ to change the browser zoom and this allows you to see the full game. (This will not effect how your browser looks in other windows, or at least it does not for me when I tried it.) I hope this helps.
Love the audio and the art, very unique. I Couldn't see the whole map though so kinda took some of the fun.
Amazing sound work! For some reason the game is really zoomed in for my on Firefox on Windows 10. Love the art and the sound tho. Great job :3
I'm sorry for the technical difficulties on firefox! My understanding is chrome is better.
Hello thank you for the compliment, I am sorry the game was difficult to see. I am reposting a response to another comment that may help.

You are a Foley master.
Also, interesting bug, when in full-screen mode, the sharks go outside the game area. This was especially funny on an ultra-wide monitor, as the sharks took like 10 turns before turning around.
Oh Dear maybe I should not allow fullscreen! Thanks for the heads up. What is Foley haha? (Regardless I shall gladly take said mastery lolz.) Thank you for commenting!
Liked how all the sound effects / music was all your voice lol
Haha yeah had to try! Ty for commenting
Cool gameee (つ▀¯▀)つ
Ty very much. I enjoyed yours as well
