Standing on objects and keeping your head above water helps you recover air faster.
The goal is to survive until the end (but of course you have to save some teddy bears. What, are you a monster?)
My highscore is 33, anybody who beats that will be awarded a custom made badge! :smiley:

The graphics were actually really nice, I especially enjoyed the appearance of the water, and all of the objects floating around interacted well with it, making the scenery feel realistic. The game definitely managed to capture the feeling of the open ocean! The sunny sky and the clouds looked quite nice as well, all adding to the feel of being lost at sea.
It might just be me, but I was a little bit confused as to what the objective of the game was. At first I thought it was to survive as long as possible, but then I noticed I could get points by collecting teddy-bears. I think it would've been nice with some more directions in the game, although it was certainly made clear that staying underwater too long isn't good!
Overall, the game has nice graphics that make for a great ocean scene, and interesting game mechanics! Nice job!
But it's worth it to save the bears, right?
I've made a let's play, you can see how far I got :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVHNMuJGx7w
Originally also tried my best to save the teddy bears until seas started getting very rough, and the raft was starting to get pulled apart.
Wasnt sure if the game was gonna end really, until thankfully a heli flew over head. Overall, great atmospheric game.
