Great enjoyable story and jokes. The source is available but I wonder if you plan to put any license on it? I have some ideas to add to the game but a license is needed in order to fork it / submit them.

OK... so

I like the story, the comedy was good, nice and short, BUT...

the controls seemed a little clunky - go figure, you're on a boat - but that didn't stop me from trying to finish it. I felt like there should have been some more obstacles, and the obstacles that were there should have been a little more spread out.

But that's not to say it isn't a good game. I enjoyed it, and that's the thing.

sorry if I sound harsh.

Thanks for playing, appreciate the honest criticism. In hindsight, I agree a larger stage with more open areas would be a very positive change. Glad you enjoyed it regardless!
