Really like it, chill and calm game. I did not manage to be able to collect big garbage, I got the boat with canon and he shot some shots and made some garbage small but not all, I upgraded the capacity of the scout to maybe think that they could then collect but not. The distance is very long so I ended up all the time to get help from the base.

- Good music. Theme is present. Art is great. Controls are good. Love that it has a tutorial as well as an explanation of what's going on—something that has been sorely missing in a lot of these entries. Cool progression system. My only complaint is that progression ends really quickly, but of course this is only a game jam, and I can't be expecting a 5 hour game haha! Great work!
