It's another day on the beach for "Shelly" the crab!
Help deliver shells of a proper color while avoiding all the others.
Beware of the lethal seagull attacks! :bird::dizzy_face:
__WSAD__ to move, __Space__ to burrow and avoid seagulls, __Enter__ to pause the game.
Post-Jam version has these updates, many of which were suggested by the lovely people in the comments:

- shells now spawn with an anti-overlap algorithm @dafluffypotato
- shell spawn animation to prevent accidental pickups @loo27
- score display
- bonus/penalty time display
- ambient sounds
- crossfade between music tracks
- pause key is changed from __Escape__ to __Enter__ @ausstein
- you can start the game by hitting __Enter__ on the greeting screen
- added an arrow that indicates when and where to deliver the shells @ryan-wine @dafluffypotato
- removed the timer from the __Burrow__ ability, Player can stay in the ground as long as they wish @badcop
- collider on despawning shells is deactivated to prevent accidental pickups @ryan-wine
- "hardmode" with 3 Seagulls was removed - now an additional Seagull spawns every 500 points @ausstein
