This is our first game. We mainly wanted to make something story-driven so don't expect a lot of raw gameplay.

 ← ↑ → ↓ keys to move around. Spacebar to interact.

The game was made for the 162nd weekly game jam, the theme was "crabs".

Very cool and aesthetically beautiful game! I would like to see a menu UI with sound settings. The music was a bit too loud compared to everything else.

Good work!

I encountered a bug on the level with the turtle skull, once I landed on the rotator by the sand castle it caused my character to move diagonally instead of left or right and I ended up getting stuck in the skull unable to continue :( - I loved the 1 bit art though, it looked fantastic!
