FUn concept. Controls and graphics might be improved but you did a great job within 48 hours.

I had no idea shrimps contained so much fuel.

Nice levedesign and gameplay. Port this to iOS and you got yourself the next flappy bird.

ludipe 2015-04-20 16:12

The concept is simple but the gameplay is quite fun. The jumping moments kind of reminded me to "Ecco the dolphin" ^^

cheshyr 2015-04-20 17:14

hehe, poor water sausage. and all those poor dead shrimpies. :-p that was fun; nice submission.

hamsternator 2015-04-20 17:16

Managed to beat all levels. That I actually wanted to beat all the levels says something about this game ^^
Were a bit too easy to cheat on some of the earlier levels with shortcuts though =)

I've not got much to say except that this game is really fun! There's just something really satisfying about landing a bit jump between pools of water. Keep making games :)

sorak86 2015-04-20 17:45

hahaha, that was the best one I tried so far, and the only one I finished. 5 stars in fun!
gj!

Infuriating but really fun! Great level design really made this for me, even though it required some "unconventional" water physics and Level 11 was just cruel. Graphics could have been a bit more polished. It was hard to tell where the shrimp would go at first, perhaps if the bubbles behind him were a bit more directed it would have been clearer. Other than that fantastic job!

paulozz 2015-04-20 21:38

Good job. Simple and fun.

lyxilion 2015-04-21 08:40

Amazing xD it's a realy fun game !

seconddimension 2015-04-21 17:42

I found this game super fun, played it for ages. It was nice to control, and there was a good challenge too. Great job!

manicminer 2015-04-21 17:44

Enjoyed it a lot - Some of the level design was a bit mean, but it was a solid experience

nightlord 2015-04-21 17:44

I played until level 6. things i like:
- feels and plays very well
- the notion of jumping from pool to pool was really cool
- the bubbles :)

somehow the overall is way higher than the components for this game. good job

ilookedatyourtitsandiminlove 2015-04-21 17:59

Neat little game, I enjoyed the graphics and the mechanic :P I loved being able to do little flips out of the water :D

themeorch 2015-04-21 18:24

In a lot of games, swimming feels sluggish or tedious, but not here -- the controls felt great to me. The levels start get really interesting after Level 5. In a game like this, I'd love to have a timer and high scores, since there's a lot of room for mastery of the controls, and a lot of the levels have shortcuts if you can pull them of. Awesome work!

trappytrap92 2015-04-21 21:21

One of the funniest games I played here, hilarious, random, but at the same time with a really good game design, physics and controls are really polished, and you explode when you die 5/5

elit3dgaming 2015-04-21 22:09

Best name ever, pretty fun moving the shrimp around too :D

diningphilosopher 2015-04-22 18:04

What an unconventional weapon! xD
Good difficulty and I liked the levels that took advantage of the fact that the water does not have to be contained in something.

voider 2015-04-22 19:37

I got hooked into this game! Good job

asobitech 2015-04-23 06:31

I thought this was too easy to begin with, then at round 8 it got tricky. Got stuck on round 11 before giving up.
Really nice use of out of the water areas. Jumping through the air is very satisfying. The mechanic is good, it all comes down to the level design.
The music was suitable watery affair, with the sound effects help immerse you further as you jump in and jump out, not too sure about the 8bit sound effects fitting to well with the rest.
The graphics are functional and do the job.
Nice work doing it on your own.

jakob37 2015-04-23 15:26

Nice one! Enjoyable mechanics, and felt like a complete game with all those levels. Found many of the later ones very interesting. Could maybe polish those tiles a bit, but they made their job well :)

alobker 2015-04-23 17:44

Yesss!!! All 12 levels complete! Great game

puppetmaster 2015-04-23 18:53

I love the jump part, very cool.
Well done!!

hambone88 2015-04-23 20:23

Take all my stars! Fun game!!

ithildin 2015-04-25 11:12

Great concept coupled with some good level design makes for some really fun puzzles. Graphics could use some more polish, but it has a lot of potential.

cdgugler 2015-04-25 14:16

Fun game! I think the controls are balanced just right. Enough to make it a challenging.

pushmepullyu 2015-04-25 14:38

Great concept plus good level design results in a great game! :D

nazav 2015-04-25 21:43

I like the concept

taro 2015-04-26 00:09

It would be nice to have a way to stay put in one spot (like using a drag factor or something). Aerial rotation would be nice as well. I'm fine not having aerial movement control, but being able to rotate at the correct angle was critical in my playthrough.

Overall, I consider it a very solid entry, with the art/randomness being a rather big detractor to the game. I really you have something going on here.

trasevol_dog 2015-04-26 13:21

Really cool game ! Would play more levels :3

samh 2015-04-26 16:41

Surprisingly fun to play for a 48-hour compo entry! A bit reminiscent of old-school cave flyers. I played it through the end, but the last level made me feel like I had just been lucky. You could turn this into a pretty enjoyable game with some careful level design.

thaaks 2015-04-26 16:47

Great entry! Music great, graphics great, sound effects great, idea great!
A wonderful, funny little game - not very much to critize at all!

tselmek 2015-04-27 22:29

Sweet mechanics even if the controls are a bit tough to master. The level design is interesting and the art might need some upgrades but overall nice entry!

plustech 2015-04-28 19:36

The jumping between pools was great! I would like to see more exploration on that mechanic. good job mate.

atmospherium 2015-04-28 20:47

Got to the infamous Level 11 before having to give up. I'm definitely going to give it another try later.

Cool mechanics, especially when it comes to the puzzles that require jumping between sections of water. Controls are a bit floaty and difficult, but I found that the more patient I was the better control I had. Good work all around.

commodorekid 2015-04-28 21:31

It's a very fun game. I'd play if there were 20 or 30 levels instead of 12.

broknecho 2015-04-28 22:39

I had a lot of fun with the game. Cool concept. Made me want to just keep going. Controls were not too bad and I got better at them the more I played. That shows some skill gained in the controls.

Great job!

nihilaleph 2015-04-28 23:46

That's.... really unconventional kkkk
The game is fun and the level design are awesome!! Great job!

mandolin 2015-05-01 20:47

Cute little game, needs polish of course, but it's a great start

jk5000 2015-05-08 14:12

The game was fun and simple. Well done.

jukben 2015-05-08 16:00

Nice! Great concept!

kloudrazor 2015-05-08 17:30

I really liked the level design (even though some levels caused some rage xD)

mrshoestore 2015-05-08 23:56

all hail the flappy shrimp!

crowbeak 2015-05-09 00:04

Level 9 was too much for me and my lack of skills. Good level progression to teach the mechanics, though. The water hanging in midair is unrealistic, but I never have demanded too much realism in my games if the strangeness contributes to good gameplay, and it does so here.

nal 2015-05-10 11:23

I had way more fun with this than I ever could have anticipated! The concept was silly and could have been anything really. I did love how you made the first few levels obey standard water "physics", and then quickly FLOATING ISLANDS OF WATER THAT DEFY GRAVITY BECAUSE SCREW IT! Nice stuff!

ryannielson 2015-05-11 14:50

Nice little game, the concept is great and it could be a pretty interesting physics based puzzler with lots of room to expand on this concept. The controls could use some work, and I'd like to see a little air control. Nice work!

dorgam 2015-05-11 21:47

Very fun game also funny. The level design was challenging and the mechanics was simple and good. Controls are a little weird but you get used it as you play. Solid entry indeed
