Sorry, it was just a gamejam submission, so we are not going to support it.

You can beat it.

Thank you!
We thought about endless mode. And even about achievement for feeding the crows!
Maybe we'll make a postjam version, who knows.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, our game is really not always winnable. I would say the problem is not randomness only, but "analogue" nature of a game, which is very, very unpredictable.

The Sextant is indeed one of the nicest upgrades out there, but you can actually win without it. For example, I myself often rely on a bell.

Thank you for playing and for your feedback!

You have very good tactics here, very well! There are others, but all of them do not guarantee 100% success.
Another tip to make life easier: do not always kill the shark right away, because it can be used as a counterweight.

Thanks for the detailed feedback, we really appreciate it!

Well, this is strange - the game has a strictly limited number of buoys and a lot more upgrades, so working on the sextant should definitely give a new upgrade. At least one or two.
Thank you for playing!

The game is unpredictable as the sea itself. >:0

It has two or three tactics, which can help to survive, but still there is  chance to fail.

Meta upgrades is supercool thing, and we will definitly add it, if we will develop a game further.

Thank you for playing!

Thank you!
Yes, there is a pretty hard limit.

I believe you can do it!

Maybe we will ;)

Awesome letsplay, thank you!

Thank you!
