Creative concept! Love the way the jam's theme allowed the creation of games just like this one!
Would love to have some sound feedback, but it was still super enjoyable!
Good job!

The cut turned out to be the easiest bit really. (The game is made in unity so I'll use its terminology, but I assume it can be recreated elsewhere) Basically there is a second camera that renders the cow to a render texture. The camera does not see below water level so the resulting capture cuts off everything below automatically. Then I flip this texture and project it to a sprite underwater. That's my reflection. When I merge the cow I combine the original capture with its reflection. you can even see a seam right where the sprites are touching.
Thanks for the feedback!

The body part detection is little iffy at times, but that was really one of the hardest part to get to the satisfying level.As for your particular case, I believe its that that little black pixel remaining of a hoof that is counted as extra leg. Like I said, it's not ideal, but it gets the job done. I'm glad you had a great time! Thank you for you feedback

You're right Fullscreen would be an important addition.
I did have it in earlier builds? but I turned the option off because there were to me some last-minute problems with UI alignment and scaling when resizing the window.
Not sure why key controls do not work though. I'll look into it.
Thank you for you feedback and kind words!
Definitely understandable to have cut it then! We ended up cutting the WebGL version entirely for our game because of issues we had with it too which, hindsight 20/20, wish we had put a little more time into making it work haha. Better to have one without fullscreen than no WebGL version at all. The key controls is probably something to do with my browser choice more than on your end, my system is starting to get a bit aged too so I'm definitely inclined to think the issues are more my fault than anyone else's.
