We began implementing the mermaid enemy in the game. At the moment it simply moves around and avoids walls.

It has been almost a year since we worked on Stay Afloat! It grew a lot from its initial conception as a game jam entry.

By the end of the month we will announce a major update which includes changes in the gameplay and the overall look!

Hello all! For this week's update, here's one new character we'll be adding into the game: the Cowardly Captain!

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!
