Like the graphics. Like the theme. Wasn't crazy about needing to run with admin privileges. Work on adding some more gameplay, could be a fun game if it had some hazards.

I love the artwork!

Like the whale sounds! :)

Hempuli

There wasn't much to do here, sadly. The whale sounded rather funny, in a good way!

Good job, it was nice and calming, but the sound was very annoying.

Tozy

I dont get it..

Cute game, and I rather liked the music.

Nice whale sounds. I had some bugs: one time the game crashed, other times it restarted, or exited, and I wasn't sure why.

Graphics and sound were good! Unfortunately, they repeated themselves too much. I found my eyes were glued to the plankton tonnage meter, instead of enjoying the scenery. I am pretty sure the meter goes backwards sometimes!

Other than that, I had the exact same problems that Localcoder had - one crash, and one seemingly reasonless restart, with different island configuration. [Running Win7 here.]

Good work on your first entry!

Otayyyyy...
The Good - good graphics, decent audio, good use of theme.
The Bad - utterly lacking in gameplay.
The Ugly - utterly lacking in gameplay.

I had to edit the batch file since the path to app.rb was wrong:

set RUBYOPT=
binrubyw.exe srcsrcapp.rb

Looks nice, feels nice, but isn't just a game yet. With a bit of work it could be.

I EETED PLANXTONS.
... and that's about it.

Definitely needs MORE STUFF. Sounds were rad.

Pros: music graphics
Cons: Mechanics
This one could turn into something better however. I would like to see the post compo version.
