Ranked from 11 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The player controls crabs which they meet throughout the game. Some tasks require more and more crabs, and the crabs are choreographed to do various things (knock down walls to allow player to progress, fetch more crabs, etc.)

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All assets aside from the skybox, sea, and boat at the end were made from scratch.

The game idea is fun, and I overall had fun trying the game. It could used some more polishing, and I ended op falling out of the world.

Thanks for playing!
We're actually going through and polishing everything this week! 

I'd love for you to check out the next version, we're hoping to release it on Sunday!

You can write a reply in this thread, when the game is done, and I will try it again.

Hello!

Took longer than expected and we still left it a bit unfinished, but I'd love to get your feedback of the latest version! :)

Hello again.

The visuals and sounds is pretty good now. Maybe the camera is a bit too zoomed in.  The gameplay idea is improved, and it's easier to see what to do. But sadly the controls of the crabs was a bit buggy, and it was therefor not very easy to get very far.  But overall is the game better now.

Dont really like how the camera works, i swimed and when i get the boat my game go screen black and the mechanic of launch crabs is hard as shit But the game is nice, really original, chill music and it has crabs so 99999/99999

Thanks so much for the review!
Yeah by the time we got into really blind testing the controls we we're already too late in the game jam to go back, wish we had just another day to polish things up!

Super cute and fun game! The main mechanic is really a complicated one to pull off, but you guys did great and did a lot with it.

Also the music is chill <3

Yeeting the crabs puts this at a 10/10 from me.

Nice game! Glad I'm not the only one that wanted to throw their followers. The camera shifted a bit quickly, and unfortunately for me my middle mouse button also controls my back and forwards arrows for web browsing, so every time I let off I exited the game...

Thanks for the play! The middle mouse control was definitely something that we didn't realize would be an issue in the web build until it was too late. We'll be sure to be more conscious of the web controls for future games.

My first 3D game of the jam! congrats ont he submission, I did run in to a problem a few times where my character would just constantyl walk forward after moving the camera.

Thanks for checking it out! I also encountered that issue on the web build, but we never saw it during our play testing in unity. We'll definitely watch out for web controls like that going forward.

I enjoyed the crabs but they seemed to just get stuck on things. Well done on getting a game out for the jam! 

It would be cool if you could check out my game too and give it a rating. https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/925013
