Nice and simple game! It would be awesome to see a polished version with some more assets added to the background as it's currently looking quite empty. I agree with one of the comments above and adding a story hook, even a simple one, could flesh out the experience more. Solid game overall though!
Interesting premise and as mentioned by @ion-programming, feels unrefined but I could see the intention. Good job overall :)
Very fun game, especially once I got the hang of the mechanics! Good stuff matey!
Interesting mechanics and theme, reminds me of the old-school games Lemmings and Worms! I felt that the dialogue sections lasted a bit too long, and I suggest making a larger dialogue box to fit in more text rather than short text that you have to click through constantly. Other than that, solid work! Well done.
Beautiful graphics and overall ambience. Loved it!
The game was still zoomed into a portion of the screen, even at full-screen as advised, so couldn't play it properly on the browser. However, I enjoyed the graphics and had a laugh at the old-school voice over: 'Staaaaart!'.
Awesome graphics and fun mood! I suggest not using a fully gothic style font for long text in the UI. It's all good for titles and key information, but perhaps find another font that's more readable for the dialogue text. Other than that, great game overall!
Interesting premise and great graphics. It would have been awesome to see some more animation incorporated into other character action such as picking up the wood, getting rid of the water droplets and dropping wood into the fire, but I can understand time is short! Great stuff overall. Well done.
Really enjoyed the game! It was a unique take on the theme and was fun and challenging. There was a bit too much text to read between each town, but other than that it was awesome. Great job :)
It was a challenge to wrangle that one rogue little chick! Great art style and overall awesome job!
Absolutely loved it! Amazing job on all aspects: graphics, sound, mechanics, fun, etc! Would love to see a polished version of the game in the near future! Well done team!
I loved the simplicity and humour of this game! Great tie in with the theme too. And the music capped off the whole thing. Loved it!
Love the aesthetics and vibe. Great use of low poly graphics! MAVS for the soundtrack is also a great retro choice. It would have been cool to incorporate the soundtrack into the game itself with some retro sound effects. Awesome job overall!
Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to play my game and giving great feedback! I definitely took a risk implementing the 'broken ship' mechanic and it looks like it makes the game too frustrating and I definitely don't want to make people feel too dizzy! I'll aim to get an updated version with smoother movement mechanics asap. I'll also make time to play your games too!
Thanks for your feedback! That's a great suggestion about two-handed controls and target pointers. I'll definitely test out a few ideas to fix the navigation bugs in an update very soon!
Very engaging narrative that had me intrigued throughout the short experience and had a great pay-off at the end. I played through a few times to see the different endings and narrative branches. When I got the good ending where I got the medal, it was super-satisfying! Well-written overall, great job.
