Someone told me to put a stick in my hole!!
It's awesome that you can send stuff to each other and the crafting is very satisfying. the story made me a little bit sad though :'(

Amazing sharing mechanic! People are so kind for giving me all their stuff!

tehlulzinator 2014-08-25 13:15

This is a lot of fun! Definitely an amazing take on the theme.

Got all kinds of lovely messages from the other contestants too. :D

foofur 2014-08-25 13:15

awww yeaa this is awesome

ditto 2014-08-25 13:46

Holy moly what is this? Genius is what it is! :D

Best game for me so far. Love it!
I just love sending random messages to people. It makes me feel all giggly, fuzzy and warm inside. I do think there could be more crafting combinations and the combining isn't as smoothly as it could be. Sometimes one of the items stays in my hands forever and I cannot do anything anymore, thus I cannot complete the game so far. Now I have to go, throw more stuff in the sea, bye.

Hahahaha wow! that crafting is the best ever! love the artstyle too :)

tautnerve 2014-08-25 21:34

Now that's what I call crafting with style.
Love the share mechanic! Brilliant!
I also laughed out loud when I suddenly realized that I
have just picked up the tree, haha.

I love this! The crafting is really clever and funny. The interactivity with others is a really great idea! Really fun to play and the music is relaxing. This is a really good game!

tijmentio 2014-08-25 23:15

I just sent a solar panel adrift along with a doubtful friendly message. And I loved every part of it.

saampahlavan 2014-08-26 02:47

Man this game is super charming.

bronaldplo 2014-08-26 12:26

Great game, super cool crafting thing and lovely music!

parahunter 2014-08-26 22:33

Of all the entries I have tried this has the most innovative mechanics so far! Good work!

9joao6 2014-08-27 11:06

Crafting things has never been more exciting. 10/10 :>

Okay so I got a tree stuck to my hand while I tried to send it to someone and it even has a sticky note on it that is bugging out when I'm jumping and I can't do anything anymore.

I wasn't kidding, okay?

But it's still the best. Really, it's so good that I'm done for today.

nichii 2014-08-27 17:28

Wow, the most innovative game of the whole Ludum Dare! Now, if only I know the crafting recipe... >.>

lightsoda 2014-08-28 17:05

Crafted a fridge, rubber, hammer, hear, mostly by accident. I just started throwing stuff in the air, like I did not care..! Really enjoyed the feel of it, that was fun!

It did bug out after I tried sending my 4th or 5th item, it got stuck in my hand and I couldn't pick anything else up.

darkcart 2014-08-28 23:20

Love it!

neosam 2014-08-29 09:51

Love it!

crowbeak 2014-08-29 13:04

I keep having to restart because the left hand stops working. :( I really enjoy this, too -- the silliness is great.

phocker 2014-08-31 00:10

I played this game a lot. It was very fun, and a very neat idea with the theme. Well done.

hypnohustla 2014-08-31 06:18

Love it. I can't even tell how much time this game has consumed from me. I have to play more, hoping there's still gifts coming my way.
(BTW I didn't know at first that my messages would actually reach someone, there might be some rude things I said. Sorry.)

alvivar 2014-08-31 06:26

awesome, very original, i did have a good time playing this.

arttut02 2014-08-31 10:42

Very nice idea! The car crash in the beginning was so strange idea that I had to like it ;).

robert_steiner 2014-08-31 11:24

Hilarious. Did you know you can make new friends with this game? I'm talking about you #yoloswag - Bob

nicepenguins 2014-08-31 11:53

Very original and nice idea :) ! Collisions were kinda annoying with me, it was hard to catch and throw object รด_o

rehacked 2014-08-31 12:30

Hey man i really enjoyed it and gave many 5 stars really liked way of combining things. Good job!!

alpha_rat 2014-09-01 14:11

Awesome! I love the crafting and exchange system.
Receiving and sending messages is very pleasing !
I noticed a bug happening after a while with the left arm of the character : it began to shake and I could not use it anymore

dickpoelen 2014-09-01 14:22

That's briljant

sonicspeed53 2014-09-01 15:57

This is a pretty fun game! It's pretty interesting how you can send people your stuff. I even had people reply to me! Good work!

stvr 2014-09-01 19:57

One of my favorites so far. I got sent a refrigerator; how did that even get made!?!?

wertle 2014-09-02 19:39

I loved this game! I'm normally not one to experiment with crafting to try and figure out combinations, but because it was so cute and fun to throw things into each other, I was much more willing to play around. I had trouble mapping which mouse button was which free hand, but I'm not sure a good solution to helping to convey that. I was a bit sad that after I made the final thing, I didn't get to throw my excess helpful things into the ocean. If i had more time, I'd go back and make a bunch of the helpful things and throw them in for other players. Well done!

sunflower 2014-09-06 18:10

Didn't really like controls; it took me some time to figure out how to craft at all, and even then it was somewhat tricky; the items around didn't help grabbing the correct thing. >.<

The messages system is somewhat fancy, though; I'm not sure, however, how items receiving is handled and if it requires two people being online at the same time at least. Also, am I correct in suspecting that depending on island there are different elementary items (specifically, the unkown-named white stones and rubber trees on one island, and coconuts and palm trees on another)? Are there other items? How long it might take before my message reaches someone?

I guess that sort of multiplayer can get rather troublesome, overall, if the items we get depends purely on whatever people throw in... especially if they are on the same sort of islands as us...?

stepwise 2014-09-16 03:16

ahahaha oh my god I was laughing so hard at the whole premise I was crying.

Couldn't find anyone to send me stuff though :<

awesome game!
