I liked the hit-boxes on the people, by the way. Due to how the boat controls, it's sort of hard to make sharp turns, so allowing for a bit of leeway by having the peoples hit-box be big enough, was a good implementation.
The random generation (or at least, I assume it's random generation) could use some work, as I once spawned in a tiny puddle of water surround by land, with no where to go. But, this is to be expected for a 48 hour game.
Although simple, I found myself playing this for longer than expected, there's something very relaxing about just rowing around in this game, nice work overall! :)
