I also liked the artstyle and music very much, but that annoying lobsters can be quite frustrating. Also the speed boost is maybe a tad too fast to aim it properly.
It's just a bit frustrating that you can get hit by an enemy before the game start, when you can't move. Otherwise it was somewhat relaxing ^^
The intro lasting 30 secs is not an issue because it is an amazing intro and should be watched over and over again.
Great entry :)
genius game, I had great fun, graphic are gorgeous.
Real black pearl ;P
Sort of the Qix meets casuals :) Really enjoyable!
Congrats!
Love the story :')
For having spent some time on it, I feel that some angles can be rounded.
The first one is a common problem. When you decide to use the space bar, on a lot of computers you can't press some specific combinations. This prevents from doing two diagonals: top left and down right.
A solution is to always put a second key for the space bar action, or not using the space bar at all.
The other point regards the dynamic of the game, since I played the leader board, I was looking for a good run and when you fail on the first seconds you still have to finish the level, here a Replay button would be an helper.
Also when a level is finished, we're back on the level selection at level N°1, it could be also nice to be placed on the next level.
I perfectly know that it's a game jam and that those are details, it's just in case you want to continue to work on the project.
