Overall a fun game. I think there were problems with collision detection. Some of my stuff fell off the raft and sunk, the rest just hung out on top of the water and I got stuck on hay bails a lot. Cool game though

a fun game to spend 10 minutes on, not much meat to it, but very good for what it is

Intresting idea, would definetly work as a core gameplay loop with some refinement!

Some bugs happened like the stuff fell thru the boat as i restarted. Also, the distance meter is not very informative, would be easier if there was some way to tell the distance traveled? or perhaps make it a larger number that ticks down faster?

I lost all my sandías D:

Fun game, but a bit one note, perhaps some challenges during the journey to spice thing up would be fun. In any case, good job!

Great concept and basically fun. I wanted more verbs (more agency) than I had, especially because I seemed to be "floating" and unable to jump at times. Great look and nice physics.

Cute little game, would be nice to have some sort of score system though to keep you motivated!

The idea is not bad but overall there is not a lot to do :( I literally did not moved and arrived at the end with everything, some things could be improved here. Good job anyway!

Intersting game! It would be interesting if you added some progession that made the waves bigger and bigger as you went on. Nice physics, overall lovely submission, nice work!

I liked the sound of the waves and the fact that the sky changes according to the time of day, very nice! overall, I was able to stand in the middle without doing anything and just stand there until the game was over; maybe increasing the difficulty would help. the collision detector wasn't the best, there was a point i couldn't jump cause i was next to a carton on the boat. It would definitely help to spice it up.

Good game! I really enjoyed the sound design of the ocean waves so well done! Wasn't a huge amount to do while on the raft, stuck to the theme very well.

this game was pretty fun, but i think there should be a reward system for how many things you could keep on the raft. nice game :smile:

Good ambiance being out on the ocean! The balance aspect is really easy to manage, and restarting the game should reset the raft position as it is possible to get stuck forever. A lot more can be done to make this interesting!

Nice work overall!

Very short but cute game. I like the use of physics for applying the theme. Character is a bit floaty though, making the game a little easy. Still, good job!

It is a nice small game. I wish there was more things to do though

Cute entry, had a good time playing it, though I do wish there were more mechanics to play with. Good job nonetheless !

Yeah, I have achieved goal, but at what cost? All my things were drowned.

Cute game, it's been fun :)

Very fun little game but it lacks a bit of real challenge. Maybe enlarge the size of the raft or give it a more specific shape. Good Job ! :D

Cool game overall, the physics with the waves is well done but I feel like sometime no matter what I do things end up falling :'(

Thanks so much for all the positive comments peeps! :tada: It was fun to make and I may take a post-jam pass at it and see if I can put more fun in. but also more beauty as I would quite like to evolve it into a cosy game about sailing. Let's see! TY for jamming!
