Hey, nice game! I kept getting wiped out--I must need to get the hang of it lol. But very unique! It did take me a minute to figure out that those were gold coins, not bombs XD
Hang ten, dude! This was radical 🤙
The music is very nice, the surfing mechanic takes a bit to understand but it's pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it. Cool game!
Cool interpretation of the theme! I was not expecting to play a surfing flappybird-like.
This reminds me so much of old NES titles like Skate or Die. Should add tricks you can do when you jump above the waves.
Vibe was great, loved the music.
Thanks, I'm the composer and you really had a good ear!
I used a lot of sounds from NES, glad you loved the music.
Very unique game for the theme. It had kind of a flappy bird remix feel to it (in a good way).
I really struggled at the start to move forward, but after a few tries, I got it! It's a lot of fun, awesome idea!
I didn't quite understand how to play at the beginning, but, after a few tries, I got to surf as intended!
Loved the theme interpretation, and the sprite work!
Really cool game! This is probably one of the most unique ones I've seen so far with the idea of surfing. I liked how the pirates would kinda ragdoll whenever they died. Great job on this one!
Really fun game, and the background music absolutely rocks!
The use of the theme felt a little stretched to me, but the game itself was definitely a lot of fun to play.
Thanks! I personally loved creating the music for this game, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you glad you liked it!
