Fun little game! A bit easy in this stage tho.
the game is simple and funny, I really liked it! :DD
Agree it is simple, but a fun concept and love the art style
it is very nice, I liked plying with emotions :D
Super charming art, music, and mood! However a bit simple for more than a few minutes of play. Nice work :)
Very cute and the name is funny
It’s always nice to see simple yet polished games like this. The varying boat stability was a really good representation of each emotion. The controls felt satisfying despite being (intentionally) inconsistent, which is surprising.
Lovely little experience. Maybe it would have been nice to have a clear increase in difficulty or a reason to try to last as long as possible (as far as I can tell it doesn't really change over time?) but maybe the point was to be bite-size and trouble free :). Good name btw.
The take on the theme is so cool! It is a very polished experience with great arts. I know music is time consuming to make but it would have been awesome if it changed at each mood. Great job!

Very cute, and pretty in the theme. I'd like to hear some more music piecies, because this one is pretty boring after minute of listening...
Very cute game. Beautifull graphics and excelent use of the theme! Really good job!!
A small and cool game. It mixes relaxing and slightly stressful elements very creatively. I'm especially a fan of the minimalist art style.
Very cute and polished game, I like so much the take in the theme with this one, i might get emo tional :)
Great job! Love the artwork and the music! Excellent take on the theme, too.
Very nice game. Simple but really fun and well made, really liked the art and the music, well done =D
Really cute! Managing the boat and reacting fast to different emotions is where the difficulty lies. The music is really nice!
Really cute game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/6UdIqDKcGPw
Cute and challenging. Mayme a timer on the main scene would be good. I was going for something similar to this and my inspiration was Tony Hawk Pro Skater.
Very cute and charming! Love the idea, and it is well executed!
It was fun to play! It was super hard in the beginning, but then I got a lot better.
Cute idea! Does wear itself out fairly quickly, however, and doesn't really ramp in difficulty.
Enjoyed the music loop and the simple style.
The game is very simple but fun to play for a couple of minutes
I lasted over 60 secs! This is the first game I rated 5/5 on this jam. Perfect (although somewhat predictable) theme interpretation, cute art, charming music, potentially expandable game mechanic, etc. Nice one!
This was so cute! The graphics were simple yet charming, the gameplay was simple but fun for a few rounds, and the concept is just so wholesome. I can't really critique much - maybe some more animation to make things more lively? I'm nitpicking here - this is awesome for a compo entry made in 7 hours.
This game really captures the human experience. I love how charming the little ship and the rest of the graphics are combined with the nice little song. ...THAT TITLE IS FANTASTIC
Great music and very cute game. First try I survived about 2 seconds in happy weather. But that really was just me not having figured out the sensitivity of the controls. Well made, simple game. The combination of unstable emotions and waters and balancing at the same time. It would be hard to fit more theme into one game!
I liked that it was easy and quick try again, but perhaps the game should be even more sneaky and just restart by its own within 2-3 seconds of showing the results! For even higher player retention. Forcing another attempt.
It would also add a bit if the boat felt the waves too, especially since if one opts not to touch any key in the beginning and the moods are the easier, then the boat just stays calmly upright without any assistance.
All in all though, a very cute game that begs to be on mobile!
I love the title of combining 'Emo' and 'Ocean'!
The emoji of the ship is so cute and I love the adorable graphics! And the gameplay is nice!
Cute little game! I like the plaintive look of it and it was surprising how long I wanted to keep going keeping myself up, good work! Also, pun titles are always a BIG +1 in my book.
Got bored and decided I was done at 110 seconds. Very simple, but cute for what it is. Nice job :)
I love your game. The gameplay loop is very simple and effective and I really like the different effects you gave to the different emotions. The graphic style goes really well with the game too.
I would see one thing that might have made it even more interesting, making the ship start moving up and down over time or depending on the see or even also depending on the emotion.
Great job, very well done :slight_smile:
This was so super cute and simple, ty! i loved it!! and the title is sooooo good haha. smhing at myself for not having had the idea too, it's such a refreshing new addition to the silly physics games genre :) it was bug free, cute, short, I mean, I don't think you could've made a better jam game ToT congrats and hope to see more from you in the future~
