cool take on the theme! i like this but i think it is a bit too hard.

Developer

Thank you! Yeah might be hard we didn't really have enough time to balance things out.

I really like the originality of this game, it feels fresh. Maybe if you got some more time you could add more cool features like upgrading the island or notices for upcoming tsunamis and ships. But the game itself already is very fun to play.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Yeah we didn't have enough time for more upgrades.

A fully functional arcade minigame where you play as the island. The prerequisite, in my opinion is also present here as you start with practically nothing compared to what you will gain on day 3. Really liked the difficulty scaling, each day there is a new natural disaster and etc. The only problem I had is because of my screen resolution (1980x1080) the disasters are much less noticeable when they come from the up or down directions.

Thank you for your review! Top and bottom disasters are challenging as design. But we agree that we should have made the directions equal. Regardless, thank you for the feedback!

The game's concept is truly original and has a lot of potential. It's simple and effective. 

The game is well-executed; I felt a bit of frustration due to the screen or island size. Seeing dangers approach from the left and right is fine, you have time to react. However, from the top and bottom, it's very difficult, even impossible to react in time. But apart from that, I have nothing to say. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much! Yes we made the top and bottom quite challenging as design, I think we got a little carried away there. Regardless, thank you in general for your feedback!

The idea of the game is very cool, I liked it, the only problem is that the island is egg-shaped, which makes it difficult to keep up with the top and bottom, but the game is great

Developer

Thank you for your review! We thought the egg shaped design would make the game a bit more challenging. The strategy is to hold the island vertically; that way, you can catch the tsunamis and ships that come from the top or bottom better.
