Rough, but still fun, and satisfying when you get a line of 4-5 torpedoes to collide. Seems to be somewhat bugged in that you play forever (?) if you hit the right line. I put the PD down, and it just keeps on going.

Feedback:

Nice startscreen
Needs more game mechanics, for more game depth
- Different speed of torpedos and things to drop collide with them
- Maybe it would help to have a more zoomed out perspective, that would give more time to see the torpedoes
- Some level design would also be great for variation, obstacles mabye?
- Or different waves coming in which would change the speed of the boat?

Thank you for the feedback! I plan to add stationary mines at some point and ramps. I love the idea of different waves.

Fun game! I love this style of game and using the crank to steer just adds to it. I think the boat is a little too fast, or the torpedoes are just a bit too slow. If you just point it in one direction the torpedoes can't catch you.

I would say speed up the torpedoes a bit, but also increase their turning radius to compensate.
