Anything else you want players to know before they play?
The game is still in development. So no sharks yet. I will keep updating it.

I had no idea what I was supposed to do. But, I had a simple please on killing myself with rocks. Ironically, the rocks behave more like boomerangs than the actual boomerangs do.

Wanna try mine out? https://itch.io/jam/xkcdgamejam/rate/196038

Agreed it is a concept that could be developed further and I hope you do! Anyway one thing I do want to mention is I'm doing a review of design on the games in this jam so here's a shameless plug to my channel if you want to be notified of the vid when released: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Vj46GGL9VMUvd4YTMtjXg

My XKCD game jam analysis is out!

That was a nice video. :)

If you want to see more content like it subscribers are what keeps the channel going so share if you want to help out!

Ha ha, yeah fixed the rocks and other stuff, and added a few things too. Like a pause menu that tells you the objective again.

I was about to go play your game but I am on a mac and there is only a windows version. :'(
