What an adventure it's already been! 😁

  • Why didn’t the snorkeling fox want to talk to me!?
  • Loved the Luffy reference 😋

Honestly, the opening scene was the highlight for me. I felt an immediate sense of purpose—Get to the water, little guy! Before you get eaten. The game continued to charm with its adorable turtle art and soothing music, though the pacing slowed down a bit after that.

I’d have loved more interactions like the one with the seagull. Imagine helping a swordfish escape from a top-hat-wearing whale 😋

The theme was executed perfectly. (We took a similar approach ourselves, focusing on a youngling taking their first steps into the world.) So I really connected with it from the beginning.

For first-time jammers, this is a massive achievement. You should all be incredibly proud of what you’ve created! 👏

swordfish… I don’t know what are you talking about 👀 (the artist of the game)

Developer

Thank you so much! Sorry for the fox not talking to you... we had some problems with the dialogues, but this is a really great feedback and we appreciate it a lot :)

Developer

Thanks for enjoying our game! We worked hard on it.

Nice art. The music also perfect. and there ara many characters to meet. 

I didn't find all the babies in the end. It's pretty hard to navigate since the walls is currently invisible. Still, nice work.

Developer

Thank you so much! We are currently working on fixing and polishing the game :)

Very cute game! I love the art! 

Just one suggestion: You have to be careful in pixelart with different sized sprites having different sized pixels. This can potentially end up looking really weird. I didn't think so here, but it certainly can happen. So try avoiding scaling up a smaller sprite or if you do, to add some details afterwards. 

Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for the suggestion! In the future, we will surely consider using proportional sizes. :)

Being a baby turtle and chased down by a seagull on my way to the water is a traumatic experience I will never forget. 10/10 would love you see when finished.

Developer

Thanks a lot! We came up with many concepts for the seagull, so we're really glad you liked it! :D

the visuals were nice and opening gameplay is good, would like to see it when it's finished.

Developer

Thank you so much! We are planning to polish the game by fixing bugs and adding more ast to the second world to players can understand better where to go! :)
