Say something about your game if you wanna!
My game is called Melon Madness. You play as a watermelon avoiding waves to not get swept to shore.
My optional themes were monster, melon, and rage.
I used all but monster. I used the theme of rage and turned the game into a rage game of sorts kind of like Getting Over It. Obviously the melon was the inspiration for the player being a melon which shaped the control scheme I used.

I've reached the point where I need to roll under the block, but I don't really understand how to do that. The watermelon really doesn't want to roll without a run-up, and sometimes when I press the right button, it even slides to the left. Maybe I missed some control button, but it seems like there are only three of them.
It's pretty tricky, but you need to generate momentum somehow
I hate the waves, but I love the game
Cool physics, it was too hard to evade the waves. You should also write the controls somewhere.
You move with WASD and jump with space.
