Please, add support for windowed mode. My screen is 5120x1440... cannot understand what's going on. After pressing "Get Wave Results" I can only see the button "Quit".

Love this concept! It did take me a while to understand what was going on but after I started to purchase some upgrades it became clearer. It's super satisfying to see a continuous wave and the audio really adds to that. Great job!

I broke the world record :smile: Nice clicker game.

Can we say, it is an innovative clickergame? Or ist this an oxymoron? ;-)

I think this game is far behind your lovely TerraNil, but it is still a good LudumDare entry.

Ha, "Rainbow Mode" is really surprising and satisfying. I was confused at the start, but this ended up being delightful, particularly when I could start the wave off and let the wave run on its own. I had fun!

This is the dumbest game in the entire jam and therefore the best. GOAT clicker, GOAT pelicans, GOAT waves. Really like how colorful and alive it is, this is the true soul of a video game. Please do every LDJam forever from here on out.

Definitely scored points in my book for it's colourfulness and the sound. I'm still a little unclear about the need to manually click, because once you reach a certain level of auto wavers you're pretty much set for the rest of the game. I still really enjoyed it and I was absolutely mesmerized by the art style.

I liked the 3D-2D-ish style and the waves looked pretty cool on the bigger stadiums. As expected from a clicker game, it was kinda fun just seeing things grow and numbers going up even when you're not actually doing much (I'm writing this comment with the game still grinding :P). I think the UI can be improved a bit (more clear distinction between enabled and disabled buttons, hover effects, background for the black text), but definitely a nice job on the general wave display & camera work!

For anyone else on OSX: I had to run `chmod +x` on the executable within the app package to get it to run.

I love the implemantion of the theme here, awesome job!

Absolutely incredible! This is the best Ludum Dare game I have played yet. Good job! I love the graphics, the mechanics, the audio is really nice and the game juice is just so good. It just feels so good when you get all the pelicans to do the wave. Very well done.

Clicker games aren't generally my thing. but I thought this was really well done. I loved the 2D/3D graphics, the SFX and music cues were perfectly executed, and the overall vibe/atmosphere was great. Awesome job!
