Fun concept! The web build was a bit rough but once downloaded it’s better. The concept of having multiple boats at the same time made it interesting to me :D Cool level design. I think what would have elevated it further for me would’ve been water texture/sprite and less pixelated assets (island + rocks). I’m not sure if a dash would be nice or just too difficult… But if you keep working on this project, there is a lot of fun possibilities :D
Very cool idea and it was fun to play. The web build was broken so i had to download it.
Cool game! Very fun! The art is good. I had to download the game the web build didn’t work so good lol. (the “full” map wasn’t shown). The game isn’t so easy but me be good captain. The concept of controlling multiple ships using wind is quite interesting lol. A speed boost would be a cool addition, especially for levels where you have to put one ship on one side of the map and second ship on the other side. GG!
Great idea to control the ships with the wind!
But for some reason the compass is really big and therefore it's difficult to play. At least in the web version.
I really enjoyed playing your game! The pixel art is great, and I love the innovative mechanic of using the wind to move the ships.
I like it! At first thought it was a bit simple, but then level 2 had A SECOND SHIP! Mind blown. It could do with speeding up, and maybe allowing for moving camera yourself? Also the controls were a lil weird, I think being able to move the whole 360 degrees using left and right would help. Great job overall!!!!
Thanks for the feedback. We definitely need to fix the camera in one way or the other. We personally felt, that controlling the wind direction with just A and D didn't feel right, but since this is now the second time we got this feedback, we should probably add an option for it. Maybe we got a bit of a Stockholm syndrome situation with the current controls in the team ;)
Clever use of the compass to control wind direction - Some wind sound effects would go nicely in here.
Feels like a real time puzzle game.
Would be nice to have a fast-forward time option for when you're just waiting for the last boat to go in.
A button for that would've been a great idea; I might even implement it once the voting period is over. Thanks for the feedback!
I like the compass control scheme. I haven't seen that before. Very cool idea.
The game is difficult, but fun. Interesting idea with controls
