Very interesting and unique, I liked the style of graphics but found the gameplay confusing at times; the audio was also a bit too loud and subtracted from the experience, but otherwise I really enjoyed it!
Very interesting game, I really like the visual style but some of the actual gameplay was very confusing.
I really liked the art style but frankly found the mechanics a bit non-intuitive until I got a bit farther into the game
Simple, yet fun
Really interesting game but really difficult 😖
Really nice gameplay, everything is great except the sheer lack of intuitiveness of the controls, why can't up arrow be jump ._.
Oddly satisfying, interesting trying to survive long enough to relocate your food so you don't re-eat it :P
I love how strategic the gameplay is and the graphics are pretty good as well.
I really like the gameplay, nice work!
I thought that while the art was decent and the audio was questionable, the gameplay BLEW IT OUT OF THE WATER. This is probably the most fun game I've rated so far, I love how you have to balance your momentum so as not to run into the spikes while still going fast enough to make it in time.
This is actually one of the better 3D games I've seen yet, my only criticism is that the gameplay gets a bit boring after a while and the 3D effect is a bit dizzying
Again, I love the graphics but very confusing :P
I really liked the graphics and the storyline, I only wish you could move faster by holding down.
Really neat game, the controls and gameplay seem a bit buggy but the graphics and atmosphere are amazing.
Wow, I really like the gameplay even though I always get chased into a corner and die 😆 and the graphics are UNBELIEVABLE. The one thing that could use improvement is the sound effects.
Very nice game and interesting graphics style
This is a very enjoyable and unique gameplay but it can get a bit slow at times, the retro graphics are really nice 😀

An interesting little game, although the controls are very difficult, the graphics are nice and the music fits really well 😄

The graphics are incredible, as is the audio, mechanics, storyline, atmosphere... This is the first game that I've given more than 4 stars in multiple categories 😄 My only critiques are that it's difficult to figure out how to use the dynamite and that the floaty movement leads to a bit of motion sickness (a mostly inevitable effect in first-person 3D games).

Nice work on the low-poly 3D art, it looks outstanding and the music complements the game very well 😄 Gameplay-wise, it could use a lot of work. The controls and mechanics are very confusing and I died about 5 minutes in because I couldn't quite figure out what to do 😐

I really love the atmosphere (no pun intended) and the storyline; the graphics and audio were stunning. However, the gameplay was relatively unoriginal and some of the jumping mechanics felt a bit awkward. Overall, 4.5 out of 5 🐻 💜 😄

At first the game seemed a bit confusing, but after getting into it a little bit, I loved the mood, the bits of dark comedy, and the outstanding audio and graphics. While there isn't much to the gameplay itself, I really love the atmosphere overall.

I really like the concept behind this game; the mechanics, while very simple, were quite fun and they worked extremely well with the theme. My only critiques would be to add some visual effects such as splash and dust particles and some way to see that the ship was sinking from top view. Also, the music didn't fit with the atmosphere very well, but otherwise, very good entry 😄

Not a lot of skill involved and a bit confusing; however, the music is very good and the sense of urgency is omnipresent giving a nice mood to the game. The concept of sacrificing cards worked very well with the theme and earned four stars 😄

Very nice entry. I really liked the graphics but think the game would have felt much more dynamic if you had added animations to the tiles, especially the lava. The movement seemed very slow for some reason but that might have just been performance of my computer or browser. The audio was pleasantly subtle (with the exception of the sound of landing on spikes, it sounds like cracking bones 😬). I really liked the soda can theme but I think it would have had a nicer feel if it the movement had been a bit faster. Overall, a solid 4/5 stars 😄
