I enjoyed playing this during the jam; you nearly hit the mark for what's needed in a stress-less experience. Beautiful visuals, simple concept, fitting music,... all very chill. Except for the controls. I think one can get used to it, but in the beginning it was more stressful than I had expected 😂

Nice level, very chill, good music choice. I picked up far too many buoys before I realised they were respawning. Might have been interesting to have some wind or waves that you could use to turn faster, encouraging the player to go with the flow. Thanks for making.

I played for a good 5 plus mins.   Played calmly, chilled as collected the buoys.  After a while... got bored... tried to go faster, missed the dang buoys, crashed on the shore and got stuck.  Stress returned.

Nice game, some very cool effects and chill music.  :)

Just curious, what from the space pack did you use?

The engines for the boat. Just a single addon, but wasn't sure how stringent the pack inclusion was.

Very cute game. I enjoyed it.

For a stress-free the boat's controls were a bit aggressive  XD. Cool concept, I liked the vibe of it. Good job!

YAWN!  Almost too relaxing.  I got up to 200 points before I called it quits.  Music was very casual and relaxing.  Nicely done!

Great sound and the environment looks good. For a no stress game, the controls felt difficult. the collectible doesn't feel like it collides as generously as it should.

I really liked the game, especially the water graphics; it’s well done, and you can even see the rocks at the bottom. One thing you could have added would be fish. The visuals are very good, the water music is well done, and the only drawback I see is the controls, which are sometimes a bit difficult to manage. I don’t know if it’s done on purpose to create or reduce stress.

Congratulations on your project.

IM THE CAPTAIN NOW!

I enjoyed this little experience, I have some things I would love to say, first off, congrats on this beautiful environment! Really sold the chill factor for me! 

The different boat styles kept me playing and drifting my boat! 

The only real stresser I had with the game was the controls, it felt very hard to control at times, and made it hard to get out of tight corners.

Something I would LOVE to see in this project would be having little secret spots with some custom boats in it, or another idea is possibly being able to change the seasons!

Overall, very cute and creative game! Would very much love to see more work on this! ❤️

I freakin' loved collecting stuff and pimping my boat out! That was such a fun little experience. So far, of all the games I've played, this one was definitely the most stressful! Which was hilarious considering how vibe the game actually was. But, man, I was smashing my keys to try to get that little boat to TURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRN! Great job! Loved it!

I think I posted a comment directly on the page for this one earlier, but if I didn't say it before, I loved this one! Very relaxing, I liked collecting all the pickups and seeing the little ship change. overall just a nice little game! Great Work!

This is really cute. At times it became a "how close can I get to the bobber without touching it" simulator, but it was actually not stressfuly, just fun. I think the hit box for the boat or bobber should be a little bigger to help, but even with it as is it was fun rowing around the lake and catching a bobber now and then.

Simple and effective, I liked it, it would be interesting to see more, excellent work.

As advertised. Super chill, simple fun. Got the number up to 300, could see this extend into something with more exploration. The vantage point of the world from the little boat. Had fun, would play again.
