Very chill and very well done. Very creative use of the background to extend the beach line.

This is delightful! Sometimes you just want to dig a hole. The fact that you can build something with it? Perfection.

Thank you so much for making my game! (lol!) This is my rough prototype sand castle so far.

I was impressed by the game, and how you got the background to line up with the game!

Cool little sandbox game! I could see a Tiny Glade-like game being made with this kind of presentation, maybe even a demake.

This was super cool, so relaxing and super well made :)

Loved the soothing music, the gameplay mechanic and the creative freedom. I created a few sandcastles, this is my version of Carcassone lol

The best interpretation of the sandbox concept!

This is just so cool. A bit sad to not see that cute beach boy, and be able to kick the ball but hey ! This is such a nice little toy game, had some fun building a cool castle with the water around 

Developer

Thanks a lot, yeah I am sad I had to let him go as well. My plans where to big for a jam and I rather publish something small and but polish and finished, but the bigger plans are still alive and I'll hopefully finish those outside of the jam.

Anakin would be proud.Nice little sandbox... bdums?
Relaxing, but lacks some cool functionality, like adding water source to create fountains, rivers or waterfalls.

Developer(+1)

The sand is actually quite smooth on this beach and it only gets into the places you put it yourself. :D

I actually haven't considered adding fountains, I like the suggestion though. Thanks for playing!

Super relaxing and chill sandbox! My first instinct was to dig the biggest hole I could and flood it with water. The graphics are simple but super appealing and the music immerses you extremely well. Good work!

Developer

Thanks for playing.
Digging big holes is where half my dev time went :)

It was nice to build a castle but i had some problems managing the water. I had something like a pool which I made smaller and it kind of overflowed and I had to up everything by one layer. 
It has a very cozy vibe. Nice Entry!

Developer

Thanks for playing. Yeah the water has a couple of weird quirks. In this case you could also use the bucket tool to scoop up the overflowed water and dump it back into the ocean.

This is a very relaxing game that I will come back to for some vibe-out time and to unwind! Phenomenal job, my friend!

Nice and chill game. You can just sit back and.... well.... chill.
Bonus points for giving you the ability to make a smiley face : )
