Amazing entry! Can't believe how polished it was. The art, gameplay, and music were all so great and unique, I don't know how you thought to have a waving checker pattern indicate the water but that was perfect. Couple things could be improved: as someone else pointed out, there were some areas without collision and the outline on the text was missing some pixels. Other than that, this felt really complete for a game jam game that was made in a week, so huge props to you!

Yeah, so stupid about this collision, hidden by the cliffs, lesson learnt !
About the checker pattern, if I can give some insight. Playing at first I felt lost without any sign, I didn't have the animates waves either, so it became tough to understand. I tried with a grid at first, but it was ugly, too busy on screen. Checkerboard then felt like a much cleaner way of translating the grid to the player
Thanks for constructive comment !
