I think it could use a better tutorial or simply more explanation. I didn't understand why my iceberg grew when it did, or why I floated over some ships, etc.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Good work on getting a game done, though! I didn't even participate this time around :P just trying to leave the best feedback I can for the ones who did.
