Watched a movie with Willem Dafoe recently about a lighthouse, its a great setting for horror.

He did not stay away from the lighthouse :(,  Very enjoyable and engaging experience, Good job.

I like the game in overall: graphics, especially running in browser. Only issue is about restarting from the beginning after failure 😅 Also the “power down” is a bit long imo. A great game still

I really like the game visually. The retro graphics look so cool and atmosphere of the game is pretty good. Giving directions to the boat via the radio is a brilliant idea. I would really love to see this as a full game. With some improvment and additional content this can be a great Lovecraftian horor game. Nicely done and best of luck in your future projects!!

A great little game you can play in a browser.

It’s a great game and there is a lot going on here. Really good graphics, performance is great and I really enjoyed maneuvering the boat around. I was trying to make it run into a rock if I’m being honest but accidently kept making the right moves :P Good job!

Thanks for the nice words! <3

Loved it every single bit. The aesthetics is awesome. The penalty for failure it's a ittle problem, but i loved it.

Developer

Yeah, I was running low on time so I opted for that solution. I'm currently experimenting with a save system for my future releases so this problem won't surface anymore! Thanks for playing!

it was fun trying to get the guy around the islands, but the penalty for failure of having to restart the whole thing was fairly tedious. i still really enjoyed it though, great work!

Developer(+1)

Sorry about that. I will make sure that my future releases won't have that issue! Hope you had a great time with it regardless! <3

Great visuals. I wonder if someone Lives Under the Lighthouse.

Developer(+1)

I can assure you that no one lives under the lighthouse! Thanks for playing! <3

Absolutely amazing. The sound and environment design are top notch. My only possible critique is that the time between turning the lighthouse on and the light breaking was a bit too long and made me think the game might have broken. Other than that minor thing I only have praise for this.

Developer

Thank you for playing! <3

At first, I didn't believe that this level of graphics could be run in a browser. I was wrong.

The sounds and especially the graphics are incredible. I can't say the same about the gameplay. It's simply exist. The ending was slightly unexpected

Solid game for gamejam, especially with such graphics

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the nice words! Will focus on the gameplay aspect more in my future releases!

If you really were two to make this game, that's huge! I love lighthouses and PS2 graphics haha! I feel like there could be more to the game ambiance than only watching the ship move through the bay. Maybe I missed some events by look away...
Overall, the game is nice, I enjoyed it ^^

Developer

Thank you very much ! It means a lot to us!

Epic work for a week! I enjoyed playing through the game, and it reminded me of playing on my old PS or PS2. I would have to like a few more scary things to happen to make it more of a horror game. 

Developer(+1)

Yeah... 80% of my time was spent on the level design/setdressing. Should've spent less on that. But I hope it was enjoyable regardless! <3

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing! We really appreciate that!
