What a good concept ! Loved it, at first i though i needed to jump in the boat, i was dumb xD
Score: 235 (can you beat that ? I don't think so !)
The diving section was really tough.(yes, upon retrying, the diving got a lot easier, I was overthinking it) I dunno, maybe spamming the arrows rather than holding them a bit longer made it harder than it had to be? also, upon death, I can *just* see the two buttons at the bottom, when in fullscreen mode. In the non-fullscreen, browser window, those two buttons aren't visible at all. I predict they say retry and quit.
I really like the sound design and the visual style. The game also simply feels good to play. the game feels "giddy," so good sense of style there. I just found it a bit punishing, like it's a reaction test which I was pretty bad at. best score of 2 attemps was 22.7
This is great! Well done
