I loved this game. It is pretty satisfying with a layer of simple mechanics. The waves deposit new shells which is perfect! It brings the old memories of collecting shells by the beach. This could be turned into an incremental game easily.

Thank-you! I agree with the potential. As it was developing, it was becoming more and more clear to me that it was turning into one of those infinite clicker games (like a cookie clicker), so I tried to pivot and lean on that a bit more towards the end.
If there was one thing you wished it had, what would that be?
Thanks for responding.
There are a couple of things:
1. When the game tells me all shells collected, I assumed, I can move on to next area but then I realized I can pick those shiney ones and kept on collecting rare shells. I felt the message was incorrect then.
2. When I am really ready to go to next area, I wish the game would tell me, hey, now you have enough coins to go to next one.
3. Maybe turn this into actual clicker! Buy a robot to collect those shells for you! Lol!
