The theme twist is great and the visuals plus the oil loop make the idea stand out. Some parts are a bit slow and a few controls need clearer hints, but the core is fun and the vibe is strong. (pls play my game)
Thank you for your feedback!
Old gold being fossil fuels is a nice idea!
Love the theme! Making oil is hard work -- no wonder it's so expensive! I was able to figure out how everything pretty quickly. I just wish the platform wasn't so large!
A pretty interesting game with nice graphics! It could use a few more hints to help players understand all the different parts of the oil extraction process.
The sound design fits the vibe of the game really well.
I couldn't really figure out the controls in order to complete the quota, was also a lil slow when walking on the deck. But it has clear visuals and nice music.
Something I like in this game is that you're allowed to figure out yourself how everything works!
The mixels in this game are pretty jarring, though some of the set pieces actually look nice!
The boat is a tad too long for my taste and the wells of oil are so full that you are going to be draining them for a while, which is a bit of a shame when you can also be naviguating the waters.
As for the sound design, it works! The music can be repetitive quickly though.
It is a fun game to play, sailing on a ship and going from rig to rig to collect oil.
The game feels easy to understand once I figured out how the controls work. There is only one bug, and that is when I complete a rig and sail to the next one. I can't drill for the next batch of oil.
