Gratz on beating the game in spirit!
Hope you enjoyed it as much as I in making it! <3 Working on a from-scratch Javascript engine is a challenge for sure, but its super rewarding in the end, and each jam the workflow improves.
There's a small 1 line variable typo that you need the 500 coins in the boat instead of the lighthouse sadly., got this mentioned in the Discord.
Never caught this in testing as I always put in my coins last thus triggering the cutscene condition when closing the UI. XD
Already fixed that in the patch that I'll post as soon as editing opens up!, Also been working on the general flow, as you mentioned the really slow start, making the first boat faster; but at a lower capacity. Stuff like Z-indexing on boats & having a button to select a stuck ship is also ready for to get posted :D
Edit: There is a small final dialog with sfx & showing ur final time for the leaderboard.
