Reached 2159 meters and got absolutely DEMOLISHED! This game is fantastic!

Wow 5/5
Favorite game I played in this game jam so far !

It's just like this nice "pepite" you find.
Graphics are awesome, the vibe, the name and character are awesome :-)
The  Raft-joints system feels just perfect!
The fact that the sharks are breaking the boat is super nice touch to the mechanic so you always have to re-adapt your ship/raft/Fortress.

I enjoyed it A LOT.
Really cool game, the movements on the raft as well they feel just so right.
The game is super polished, the sounds remind me of Age of Empire I arrows (which can't be a bad idea in my concern)
The objects you put to protect the raft and the "guns" is super nice.
I really enjoyed the micromanagement system on the raft to try to get as far as possible.

I love the Image of the rat facing the sun btw It depicts the game so good :)

====> Suggestions <=====

- Maybe I'm overhyped by the game but my raft got SO big at some point that it wasn't entering the screen, So maybe the Camera could zoom out in the case 
- I hope you continue developing the game,
- In this Theme of "external elements" that changes the shape of your raft like the sharks.
Maybe you could add some underwater mines or pirates islands.
Or islands with other infested rats that go on your raft and eat it from the inside (spot hard to reach for the sharks). So you have to put Traps on your rafts.
Maybe you could upgrade some raft parts and you end up with huge monsters from the see attacking your raft. Because you go further and further !
A bit like the great rifts in Diablo III where the deeper you go the higher the difficulty gets.
- Some items could make your Rat faster or be able to go underwater, so much possibilities !

Well done mate !
Really loved that game, I hope you continue to develop it further
Thanks for this good moment :-)

unique mechanics, lots of replayability, sense of agency as I construct my wobbly raft shark killing machine and I also get to run trough it

consistent, nice aesthetic, nice retro music, simple and intuitive controls

I would love it if i could swim around a little more before dying, I went out of my raft by accident and died super fast

It is a perfect execution of a slightly similiar idea that we had in mind at the start of the jam as well

Very happy see this and be able to play it, fav. entry so far in the whole jam

Very interesting idea! I liked the mechanics.

Submitted

Very unique interpretation of the concept. And the mechanics allow for a surprising amount of different strategies.

Controls could be tweaked to make it a bit more maneuvarable (many times I ended up grabing an object when I wanted to paddle). Very cool nonetheless, could easily see this being expanded with different enemies and add-ons to put on the raft.

I had a fun. I haven't seen anyone else do this or anything like this in the jam. I like the way its possible to build the raft in different ways for different strategic approaches. Wonderful job ! I made a death machine as you can see...

Submitted

Well this game is not what I expected it to be but in a good way. Game is fantastic to play and quite challenging at times.

Submitted

Cute game, really fun to play! I love the way the rat’s movement feels and the art style is great

Submitted

Super fun, I played for such a long time!! I love both the little rat and the mechanic of the game. Awesome job :D

Submitted

That was pretty fun! Would appreciate a zoom-out once your raft gets big enough. Shooty-fish OP

Submitted

Hello! I loved the art style! If you kept working I would love to see even more things to add to my raft!

Noice Noice.

Nice job!

The game is fun and easy to understand, and I love the graphics!
