There's nothing better than playing on the beach with your fellow cultists. Although it seems to be a little rough around the edges in some areas, everything works perfectly and it's a very enjoyable experience. A full version with rivals who worship different deities and some kind of "championship" would be a lot of fun!

Haha, this was great craic! Very different to everything else of course, but just charming and fun. A little janky here and there but not too much to complain about. My only real issue was that I couldn't seem to find a way to fullscreen the game or increase the window size, so on my 1440P monitor it was rather small.

Was kind of relaxing, a good palette cleanser to being jump scared from the other entries lol! Cute sprites and a nice summertime vibe that I didn't expect to see for Cosmic Horror Jam!

It looked nice, and was a pretty original idea. The physics were a bit wonky, but it helped a lot when I figured out there was a marker to help you tell where the ball was going to land. It still didn't always go over the net even when I got a perfect hit on it, and the opponent AI was a little whack, but with some polish this would be a really enjoyable game. Did I miss the scoreboard also? That would have probably enhanced it quite a bit.

I also noticed my shorts kept changing colors for a second?

Thanks for giving it a try! I wasn't able to give it as much as I had wanted, but I definitely hope to give it a little more love coming up. Technically the number of people you have at the top could be the score board I guess, but I definitely think it needs something more clear.  I will have to keep an eye out for the shorts changing colors!
