Judge feedback

- The game incorporates the theme really nicely and the puzzles themselves were kind of clever. The amount of softlocks and lack of checkpoints make this the dark souls of puzzle platformers. There are several areas where experimenting with anything often forces you to restart. It's just not fun replaying levels especially where you have to wait. If everything was a bit more lenient, like a couple of the big jumps in the game, this would have been a perfectly relaxing game. I probably just need to get good.
- This one is great. I'm amazed it was made so quickly and yet so well! The theme was charming, the graphics are perfect. The little addition of story is such a nice touch. Didn't encounter any technical issues, everything worked great. Good job!
- * REALLY needs checkpoints, rewinds, or some way to stop softlocking us * Art is great though * Gameplay is simple but shows promise, with a bit of work you could list this for sale

so freaking good
my only complaint is the lack of checkpoints, makes the levels really unforgiving. (level 10 specifically)
I just loved the graphics, and this mechanism that knew how to use this weird theme;
goodluck
I liked it, there wasn't any point in the game where I was lost on what I needed to do; which is a really good trait of a puzzle platformer.
The art aesthetic and music are really charming. I really liked the multiple uses of the sailcloth and piloting the ships to navigate puzzles and perform platforming feats.
Overall I consider it a 9/10.
