Awesome work! :smiley:

Nice Job! You have a really nice foundation to build on here, different kinds of repair jobs and even some secondary animation on the ship and monster would go a long way!

I just finished playing, and first of all, good job! The tutorial maybe should include how to move around, and meanwhile playing, it felt dificult pressing R instead of E to interact/repair. The ambient was really cool, and the approach to the topic was good too!

Nice little idea, really liked how the giant octopus looked. Managed to survive for 2 whole minutes before my ship sunk!

Great atmosphere. Really love when the monster rises out of the water.

just amazing 3D graphics and a pretty nice idea - love it :)

The game looks great and has a good atmosphere about it! The animations worked well.

Unfortunately the game play got tedious quickly. It would also have been nice to have some sort of progress marker whilst playing.

Nice work!

Quite a challenging game! The camera left things rather tricky with being able to hit the leaks. But it looks fantastic and has a very dramatic presentation, which I loved. Also, teaching about leaks before having the kraken appear is just good game design.

A realy like the mood and the graphics. This game has a realy nice atmosphere. And a useless jump ;).

I enjoyed this game, my one complaint would be it got hard pretty fast, and I had no clue I was about to sink. Also I would pay to be able to attack the sea monster

The intro was nice but I found two spots where you could keep fixing two holes simultaneously [Screenshot On Gyazo](https://i.gyazo.com/49002350645d0017fc2c3a8283cb5f92.jpg)

and it seems you can go on forever by just holding down the R key, eventually I decided just to let go to see what would happen [You Survived 401 Sec](https://i.gyazo.com/8caac5e1ec861585c30b5614a27e7cca.png)

The game has top notch audio and graphics. Really nice work. The only thing I would say that is tricky to hit the holes with the way the camera works

Interesting game! It has nice atmosphere and mood due to great sounds and music. Really liked the idea. Graphics and animations look very good. I love it!

I thought the visuals and audio were fantastic! I was hoping I could shoot the squid the the cannon between repairing holes though heh

kasalooo 2020-04-21 18:52

looks dope and i really liked it!

myro973 2020-04-21 18:52

Cool idea, I like the pirate theme ! No wonder this guy got trapped here, his boat probably couldn't move fast with this tiny sail haha

The game has indeed a good atmosphere but unfortunatly tedious after a while. Anyhow, it has amazing graphics and i liked the steps you are doing towards your animation. It's noticeable what your aims were and it looks like you accomplished most of what you wanted to do. The camera distance, camera shaking, boat, the hammer sound, monster and sea were all talking with each other and for me it was a well programmed/staged game that lacks mechanics and for that thou shall be praised.

Really cool game with awesome graphics. It was super fun to play and it looks like you really worked hard on it.

mp-raxxius 2020-04-21 22:22

Really enjoyed it. I just _wish_ that the holes in the ship seemed to have some bearing as to which tentacle was a-slapping.

Such a great atmosphere! I genuinely felt intimidated by the giant octopus! Procedural animation is hard, so this was really well done! I love how the camera swayed with the ocean and over aesthetic was consistent and nice.

The overall concept was great however I wish there were a few more ways I could repair the ship to avoid repetition; however for the time given this is fantastic and certainly a great step towards some awesome procedural animation! You did great, keep it up!
