Incredibly cute art! The idea was also very cool and really well executed!

Game description
Play as an Anemone in this 'current surfing' plaform puzzle game. Float, drift, or sink into currents to navigate hazards, enemies, and terrain.
According to Wikipedia (which I glanced at during research for this game), sea anemones are not very mobile. So this is a one button game - press Space to sink, release to drift into currents. It's all about the timing!
CHANGE LOG:
12/03 - update to controls.js, reading event.code for the space bar was failing and keyCode == 32 redundancy wasn't working for all users. This is a one button game and somehow that got messed up :-/
Theme interpretation
I wanted to use waves as a form of movement. While brainstorming ideas, my partner threw out the title "The Anemone Of My Anemone" which I thought was hilarious, so we worked backwards from there. Currents are waves of pressure... so... waves :P
