Graphics are really cool ! I'm always impress by this Gamboy graphics I don't even know how you do that ^^
Music is super good as well.
I would have liked to be able to move my character on the rafts tho :-)
Maybe build some protections so the rocks or sharks cant destroy your raft from certain angles.

great gameboy-esque presentation. really relaxing game that I could easily play for hours. It was also really polished.
Tell me what you think of my entry?
Loved the Sound and Presentation, but the Controls were hard for me to adapt to. I really like your game, maybe involve WASD for Raft Movement?
Loved the old-school vibe of this! Felt like my childhood games, in a good way.
Very good game. I love the art style - simple yet fitting together nicely. Also the game's idea is kinda similar to mine, where you have to continuously add parts to survive. Your scope is much better for this jam than mine though :D
Good work!
Really cool and fun, you nailed the Gameboy aesthetic. It is a bit hard, but I understood the mechanics immediately!
I dig the art style, kinda game-boy tones. Fun mechanic, quite easy to grasp.
I recognized the music ! great choice :)
wow such a cool idea! it feels really polished and i played it for a whole while! great job :D
A simple concept, well executed and fits the theme perfectly.
I like how the gathering of parts has almost this risk reward element to it. You wanna shoot it and drive towards it, but if you're too hasty in getting the parts you might damage yourself instead. It's also nice how the smaller your raft is, the easier it is to avoid obstacles. A+
Wish there was something I could do about the crocks, they don't seem to give up or react to shots so getting munched is a bit of an inevitability. Tho it does make getting new parts all the more frantic, which is good.
I've considered a similar idea for my game, but I couldn't quite figure out how to make it fun, so I went with something different. I'm glad someone managed to make such a compelling game about constructing a ship (raft) out of random shapes.
Thank you for the amazing feedback!
We spent a long while considering whether to make the crocs shootable or not but in the end decided against it, since it adds a motivation to get raft parts, or else you could just avoid obstacles and shoot the croc.
I'm very glad you enjoying the part collection! It took a while to get right, it still has a little jank but let's just called that a feature!
Thank you for playing!
Super fun! Very challenging but feels really rewarding when you get that super huge raft! And the art style is super cool too.
