Coastal Goo is a fresh and relaxing underwater adventure, made by our team for Fishfest 2024 Game Jam! It is the in-the-works result of a 3 years old game concept we had inspired by Yoshi's Island and 00s Computer Games.

Thank you for your time!
Hello! We're glad you liked the prototype and thank you for your constructive feedback! ^^
The truth is, the enemies were designed not to be a threat but more of a slowdown (at least, in the prototype), because the gameplay is supposed to be relaxing action.
However, we would appreciate if you followed our game and share feedback like this in Coastal Goo's community threads to help the game grow in future releases ^^.
Thank you for your time!
Can you survive through Halloween Eve? The Sweet-Treats Man will get you if you are not careful! Pulse-Pounding Paranoia screams in your heart as you're running to hide for your life and manage to collect the candies in order to proceed through the game. It's all fun and games until the jingle begins and he crawls near... Then, every step you make, with cold sweat clinging to your flesh, might be your last.
But, the horrifying truth is... that ONLY YOU can explore the secrets behind this banned cartridge and break its murderous curse!

Will you survive the Electronic Nightmare? FIND OUT TODAY!
I am glad you liked the game. Yes, the truth is that it needs a bit of good timing and strategy to complete it. A pretty helpful tip is hide to the bush on the side the Sweet Treats Man left the screen, and after coming in again, as soon as he is away from you start investigating plants. You have to stay within the plant area - leaving it will automatically cancel the process.
Here's my game, in case Retro Horror Theme interests you ^^ :
The Sweet Treats Man! - Gameboy Analog Horror by StathisTsasakos (itch.io)
Here is what proper functionality of the game shall go like :
Pressing Enter (aka START button) during the Intro shall take you to the Main Menu Screen. Pressing Shift (aka SELECT button) shall change your option. Once your darkened option is LOAD GAME, pressing Enter to confirm your selection shall stop the Main Menu Music and load the Opening Monologue of the Stage you died last time, after 2-4 seconds. (If the game has not created any save file yet, then the music shall remain off and nothing load, it's aimed to be an unnerving bug-feature).
I hope this helps. ^^
This is a bug that might appear after the game saves your progress automatically (each time you beat a Stage). However, I don't know yet why is this happening, but if the bug appears on your system, just close and reopen the game, and load your save file from the menu. It will allow you to access the upper area of the stage. The bug appears, occasionally in Stage 3 too.
It seems to be an Engine's bug, because the code appears working perfectly in the Debug Process.
Bloody New Year is a Virtual Escape Room Videogame Experience.
We will keep updating the game adding new things and new ideas we will come up with.
The game is about a mysterious almost genocidal incident happened on New Year's Eve long ago, when over a million families were found dead in front of their TVs. You accidentally appear on an old Company's Warehouse where by the help of listening to tapes, looking for tools and clues, you have 1 hour and 30 minutes to prevent the event from happening again, as you discover piece by piece the dark truth behind it!
The first version is allready out!
