King Crab

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 3[/h1] You can view my VR gameplay & early impressions here: https://youtu.be/oToc0YelgvA The VR support here is just too plain. You point & click to dig trenches or build a sand wall to protect the Crab castle. It's just not fun in VR to do that. It doesn't help that the visuals are also kind of basic. The ocean waves in particular look bad. So the gameplay is not immersive in VR and the visuals are dull. There's a free demo if you want to check it out. There's a similar game that's much cheaper and also more fun to play called Wet VR. The visuals there are also not the best, as the art-style there is an acquired taste, but the gameplay is a lot better.

Fun simple game, gets hard to unbeatable very fast. The digging and building are a little quirky but overall it is a very neat idea, would love to see it fleshed out more! Suggested Features: -I like that "a storm is coming" feels ominous. Maybe additional events like "the ocean calms" to show a more relaxed period to build, "the beach is quiet" to indicate less animals and people will attack your fort, and maybe a timer in the top right for each event to show how long you have for relaxed building or holding out for the storm? -Upgrades would be cool, right now the gameplay loop is pretty much the same for each level, except more frantic until it becomes impossible. Being able to build or dig larger areas at once to hold out longer, even being able to jump higher so I can scale my fort more easily. Maybe with the previous suggestion for more events, when the ocean calms and the beach is quiet is kind of the "shop phase" to get upgrades? -Endless and creative modes. The 5-6 minute levels prevents me from building as big and cool as I want. Maybe having a "survival completed!" at 5-6 minutes, then I can choose to go to the next level whenever I want, or continue to hold out as the …

I liked the game, some of the levels are difficult. Building seems to work better than digging trenches, but at least one level I have to do both since I can't stop one of the waves from getting to the castle. I hope the developers add onto the game.

This game is a blast to play and brings me back to playing in the sand at the beach with my brother on vacations growing up. Highly recommend if youre looking for a fun physics based game!

I love the idea of this game! But unfortunately the execution is very poor at the moment. Most of the challenge is in wrangling the voxel building system, followed closely by and related to the trouble you'll have just navigating your own creation. I would love to see a more forgiving movement system, and build/dig speed scaling up the further you are from the Crab King. At the moment it's difficult to try more complex structures as well. The water doesn't behave much like water on smaller scales, and the sand doesn't behave like sand at all. I'm sure those would be major to change, but at the moment the game simply is not thoroughly simulating the sandcastle building experience to any reasonable degree. I have high hopes for the future of this game! I really do enjoy the vibe and the vision!

This game had a bunch of potential but now seems to be an abandoned game. It's pretty much impossible to beat level 3, so there isn't much content, even if it is cheap.
