Interesting. I like the looks of this. I think it could become something fun. I like the way your map looks and the fact that it is procedurally generated is impressive. Nicely done.

This is a really good take on the Islands theme, actually, and is technically impressive. I think there is some gameplay potential, maybe around the idea that you can't save everyone, so you have to choose who lives and who dies. =)
okay....
So, The Good - Random island generation was perfect. The islands looked awesome, and the procedure to generate them ran instantly and did the job damned well.
The Bad - Gameplay was basically non-existent.
The Ugly - People are 1 pixel dots, making it utterly unplayable (moreso) on a high resolution. The Boat moved painfully slow. I occasionally spawned on an island and couldn't move. Utterly unclear on what the point of this was (pick people up?)
Can't get it to run on either of the computers I have available to me, either windows, built, or mac, from source. Alas. Probably a graphics card issue, as you suggested in #gosu.
Looks like a good start but as you say, there is just no gameplay there.
Lack of gameplay is .. lacking.
Very cool procedural generation. I love the surf animation especially.
The tugboat sound made me jump out of my chair =)
+1 for a Ruby entry!!
like the concept and the graphics, dislike the lack of game :P never mind, expand this into something awesome.
Nice tech; nice honk sound :)
Not a game here, but your tech is ASTOUNDING.
