I really like the graphics and the audio! I was a little bit confused when first playing, but apart from that: Overall this is a really good jam entry!

cievers 2020-04-21 11:48

Really fun once you have to prioritize one massive crash over another :D

victor-reiner 2020-04-21 11:49

It's fun and the music is great! nice job!

The game was easy to understand, the graphics were great, and the music was nice. I loved that the "Health Bar" was measured in "Boss Anger", and that if the boss was too angry you would die a great way to stick to the theme. Though the movement was kind of slow, the game is a great.

little bit easy but very good game

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:03

@black-flag We wanted to explain a little bit better how to play with a tutorial, but we run out of time. Thanks for playing, I hope you like it.

abregado 2020-04-21 12:04

Love it! Easy to play but hard to get a good score. Music was also great.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:09

@cievers Yeah, at the end the sea become a chaos. Thanks for playing, we hope you like it.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:11

@victor-reiner Thanks for playing and for your feedback, we hope you like the game.

I am confused, I tried 3 times but didn't manage to interact with anyone

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:11

@guille @ladislavodstrcil The game may need a little bit of adjustment on times and speeds to increment difficult or different levels. Thanks for your feedbacks, we hope you like it.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:13

@abregado Thanks for your feedback. That's what we wanted, a easy to play game but fun, addictive and hard to master.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:16

@snowirbis Thanks for playing, I don't know if it is a bug. Try to interact with the port buildings, if you can, you should also be able to interact with other boats. If still not working try refreshing the page and reloading the game.

chocolat-endive 2020-04-21 12:19

It works quite well! Some kind of increasing difficulty could be a nice addition.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 12:23

@chocolat-endive Thanks for your feedback, we also think that we should add more difficulty options and balance the actual difficulty. We hope you like it.

The graphics were nice, but a little hard to make out with all the ships so small. Audio was good too, I liked the beeps letting me know that something had happened and I needed to pay attention. I didn't really understand what I was doing for the first half of the game, even when arresting criminals or rescuing crashes I couldn't keep track of which ones I had or what exactly I was supposed to do with them afterwards.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 13:02

@been We try to do it as intuitive as possible. Side the port buildings you can see a person with a number. This number indicates how many stranded or criminals you cargo and help you decide which port to go. Anyway, thanks for your feedback and for playing it.

been 2020-04-21 20:38

@uberpupy Ah, I was thinking that number meant the number I'd dropped off already, or the number that I needed to return to get an upgrade. Didn't realise that was how many I had on board.

uberpupy 2020-04-21 20:55

@been We just released a update with some bug-fixing and improvements in game balance. We encourage you to play it and ask if you have any kind of questions.

xbcw 2020-04-22 17:30

There's a good base here. A lot going on but was interesting.

j-c-one-bit-studio 2020-04-22 17:46

First I thought this game is too easy, but after a minute or two the ships started to flood the bay and I was scrambling from one shipwreck to the other. It was instense, but quite fun.

matt2728 2020-04-22 17:50

Create job! Constructive feedback: the music got a little tiresome with all the high frequencies. Positive feedback: was easy to understand and pickup! Cool idea about capturing people and bringing them back to the dock. :) I think there may be a bug where you can interact with the hospital/jail/etc when you don't have anyone to deposit.

mehigh 2020-04-22 17:52

Nice game. I got a bit lost when I played it for the first time but a good entry nonetheless.

javasaurus 2020-04-22 17:52

This is a fun clicker game, thank you for making it. One slight remark though, maybe it would be a bit easier to not have to mix up keyboard and mouse. When you are clicking on screen anyway to move your boat, it might as well be using the mouse to open up menu's by clicking on the docks for example ! Well done !

uberpupy 2020-04-22 19:05

@xbcw Thanks for playing it. We are proud you liked it :smile:

uberpupy 2020-04-22 19:08

@j-c-one-bit-studio Yeah, the difficult curve is not very good, but we try to make easy at the beginning until the player learn the basic mechanics and concepts. Then, at the end, when you already know how to play, you need to try to survive as long as possible and it will not be easy. Thanks for playing it :smile_cat:

uberpupy 2020-04-22 19:13

@matt2728 Thanks for playing it and for your feedback. We never think before that the bug you commented is a bug. But now, after thinking about it, make sense to solve it. We are proud you liked the game :sweat_smile:

uberpupy 2020-04-22 19:15

@mehigh There are things not very intuitive at the beginning, we will think about it for next time. Thanks for playing it and for your feedback! :thumbsup:

uberpupy 2020-04-22 19:17

@javasaurus It's an interesting feedback. Making it a mouse-only game will allow people to play it on touchscreen devices. Thanks for it! :thumbsup:

igor-kingamer 2020-04-28 19:25

Nice game! Simple and fun. I only miss a way to stop your current movement, having to click and move somewhere else isn't as natural and fluid. As a suggestion, you could add an (maybe expensive) upgrade to speed up interactions (rescue/arrest/unload).

Also, I didn't notice the numbers indicating your cargo before reading the comments here, maybe displaying them next to the boat or at the top of the screen would be better.

uberpupy 2020-05-01 21:34

@igor-kingamer Thanks for playing our game and for your feedback. We wanted to add more types of upgrades, but we run out of time. The next time we will think more about the GUI design to make it more intuitive.
