Fun representation of an older Atari-like era of games! Keep it up!

I really like the pixel art, the concept is fairly simple but altogether well done!

My one big issue is that the boat goes naturally down the river and don’t stay on one point on the river, making me use the down arrow key through all of the game

Ah, I added the current to try and make the game feel a little more substantial and different, as well as to add some difficulty.Thanks for the feedback!

I loved your game! It's fun to see when people have similar ideas for a jam, and especially how they are executed. We both thought to add a bit of acceleration/deceleration to the boat's movement which makes the water feel more real (I hope). We both also have the exact same obstacles, which is pretty funny!
