What a great game!! I loved the puzzle design, each level brought something new to the table. I really like the mechanic, it feels so unique and interesting! The only minor frustration was having to reset the whole level (especially the really long one) just because i moved something a little too far. An undo would be nice, but i understand implementing all features takes time, which is very valuable in a jam. Great job overall, and cant wait to see what you all make in the future.
It warned you! haha, glad you found it beautiful, the artist did a phenomenal job, like he always does. if you want to see more games in that style you should check out his page! https://gilmo.itch.io/ (I would especially recommend The Abstraction !!)
I'm glad you found it that enjoyable ! I was worried the game wouldn't be widely appealing, because of its format. But I'm happy to see that you are going to come back, I hope you get around to finishing it! Your progress should hopefully be saved if you anchored :)
Thank you! A short hike is definitely an inspiration, glad you enjoy it ! This has always been a dream game of mine as well, glad to have finally made it.
Thanks! The art is all Gilmore, you should def check out some of his other stuff if you like it ! > https://gilmo.itch.io/ < (I would especially recommend The Abstraction- it's his best work!)
Omg. What an honor. I'm glad you enjoyed so much! It means a lot. Zooming out is supposed to be a feature! Like a map sort of thing, tho it is a little buggy. The island entering is just a silly bug as well haha.
Glad you enjoyed it so much! Might be developed in the future- after other games im working on, I'm not sure tho ! It has been a dream game of mine for a while, so fleshing it out more + bugfixing might be in the cards.
Great suggestions! I'm glad you enjoyed the pace and vibe of the game, I was worried it wouldn't be widely appealing. The Interract+jump mechanic is decidedly the worst design choice haha, glad you enjoyed sailing !
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed :) In Godot, when you are in Project->Export and select the export preset, there is the "Embed PCK" option under "Binary Format" ticking that just makes the exe contain the pck file too
You encountered all of the issues i know of haha, sorry for that. The spacebar to interact decision could have definitely been changed, ive noticed people have been mentioning that as an issue a lot. The sail landing was hard to make work right, and the current implementation certainly is buggy. If you want to reset your save, I'm pretty sure its in "%APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Sail" and you can just delete the "save_data" file. But yeah- thank you for leaving a detailed review! it really means a lot and will be super helpful if we ever decide to finish this up
About your closing note - it certainly is very personal, I have enjoyed sailing a lot throughout my life. To translate the serene feeling from that experience into a similarly meditative game is so rewarding, i hope to make more games in the future that capture that feeling.
Yeah!! I wish we had more time for playtesting for that kinda stuff - hard to find anyone available at 11pm the night of LOL, but thankyouthankyouthankyou for the kind words and feedback!
#1 on the last level!! Such a fun game to learn, spent all day on it xD
