- Pretty simple but fun game. The game can feel pretty punishing if you don’t immediately find another wave. But other than that, I like the concept and the game feels pretty polished.
- Music MAKES this experience, great work with the sound design! Creates a greater motivation for succeeding haha and not interrupting the momentum. I do wish it progressed in difficulty a bit faster or got more interesting outside of fish upgrades quicker, but nonetheless a solid experience.
- Interesting idea, I couldn't really figure out how to get the upgrade fish though.

Hi, I'm hedge one of your judges! Played at https://twitch.tv/hedge_in at 3:31:27 <3 (Part 2)
thank you for letting me know!!!!
The upgrade fish aren't the small ones that flee from you, It is a yellow fish that appears the further you go
A fun game
Amei o aspeto de ritmo do jogo e o personagem e design do jogo está muito cute <3
Really fun! Trying to catch waves at the last possible moment makes for a great core mechanic and *almost* makes it feel like a rhythm game. Having to catch the upgrade fish to get an upgrade is a cool idea. I like how the music speeds up as you get faster. My best score was 2362m
Quite a unique game! The wave riding mechanic is really neat and makes for a really fun main mechanic.
I liked how you weren't punished that much when failing to ride the waves and hitting rocks which makes learning the main mechanic way easier.
Great Job!
i really liked the wave-riding mechanic in this! awesome use of the theme and you made a really fun game
really unique theme interpretation! Riding waves with a crocodile! cool game
Very fun game, nice idea! Like the relation of the music with your speed.
Funnnn I got 2600, really pretty also
I love the gameplay here, insanly addicitve and fun!
I really liked the game haha, I think it's a very original idea. Also the art and music fit really well, and I liked the detail of the music speeding up and going with the game.
Maybe some more elements could be added to freshen up the gameplay, but overall it's a great job! :D
really fun and genuinely addicting XD help
My reaction while playing was: “wait, I’m playing this beautifull game for the last 20 min? Pt-BR: Por sinal, obrigado por colocar ambos os idiomas, foi um toque excelente e digno de respeito.
This is great! Nice and simple, and everything works together nicely. Changing the music tempo as the play speed changes is a great touch.
The music is awesome and the main gameplay loop was really satisfying to get right. Nice job!
a coll fun small game, enjoyed it
Surprised with the amount of depth when I got to the upgrade system really well done!
