You really gamed the algorithm by putting "scale" in the title twice :P
A very fun concept, and well executed too! Took me a while to understand how to actually start playing, but once I did it was smooth sailing. I made it to 180 feet until I got myself stuck in an inescapable spot. A fun challenge of space and resource management, and the aesthetics were nice too!
Edit: I think the difficulty continues to scale up (heh) after you lose and reset. I replayed the game many times and the amount of rocks got crazy! But then I reloaded the whole game and it was smooth sailing again.
