This game is decent, but the physics is buggy and weird, interesting concept though!

This was fun, I got devoured at the end. I like the raft mechanic but it might be better if the motion was smoother.

Neat idea. Would like to see where you can go from here.

Surprisingly fun! The sort of janky way the raft moves makes it a ton better than if it had been normal! Bravo!

Although the tilting of the raft is glitchy, it is still fun to play. The aggressive stage is especially hard with the tilting. Cool idea!

Interesting concept, a little bit of music would have gone a long way.

I don't seem to be able to lose if I stay in the middle of the raft. Great concept though, I think it has potential!

I won, the game seems pretty easy due to the buggy physics (it looks like it keeps resetting at regular intervals somehow). I was able to mostly just stand there. I like the idea though!

I have arrived! I liked the art, especially the ocean effect and the island at the end. The balancing physics seemed to update on a fixed interval and I got thrown in the air a few times, but the monsters keep you on your toes.

Physics of the raft is very laggy and buggy, but I somehow managed to get through the game. The rotation of the raft seems to be reset at some interval, it might be better if it returned to its original position smoothly.

Neat Game! Love the spooky theme with the monsters from the deep. Kinda reminds me of those stories of divers getting attacked by giant squids! I made it to the island castle alive. Great Job!

The idea is fun, but the game feels a bit unfinished.

The raft movement is not smooth at all, so it make game less enjoyable If you stay on the top of pivot point, the game is too much easy too (you have no move to do) But that's okay, I advise you to try to fix these point, because I think it may be something not as difficult to do, but is big upgrade to you game ! And, by doing this, you will understand better your game engine !

Nice work and a good interpretation of the theme. As others have said, more responsiveness on the raft would be a good polish item. An enemy that pulled instead of pushed would also mix things up a bit.

The sudden swarm when I fell in was a great finale. :D
