Gave this a shot, here's my thoughts.
Positive:
- The game is easy on the eyes, and has some neat graphical touches. I like the waves crashing on the raft and the little jig your guy does while he's walking.
- The first minute or so is very tedious but it does eventually escalate in a satisfying way difficulty wise.
The rest:
- No sound, though given some other attempts at music I've heard there were certainly worse options.
- The controls need spacing out, if you're using WASD movement then Q and E should generally be reserved for occasional inputs or interactions, as the means of core control it's incredibly uncomfortable to play when you have to press them so often. A wise suggestion is arrow keys for movement and Z/X for game functions.
- The gameplay loop is dry (har har). Go to spot, hold E, take bucket to edge, hold E, the monotony sets in fast. It's very basic and leaves little room for mastery.
