Chaotic Night for the Lighthouse Keeper

Really fun idea! The goal could be described a bit better on the page here, took me quite a bit of time to realize that you are supposed to just guide the boats out of the screen - I was desperately trying to manouver them around the island at the bottom, not realizing that there's no need to do that

That was realy fun! the way you controll the ships is very nice, great music, excelent job!

I was trying to come up with a lighthouse game while brainstorming, but you nailed it! This was lots of fun, I found myself playing for much longer than I anticipated.

Cool idea but I still don't understand how are you supposed to rescue the ships. Is there some area that you have to lure them towards?

Really nice entry, there's been quite a few lighthouse games here, but they've all been incredibly unique. It took a second to realize where I was suppose to lead them. At first I was leading them to the lighthouse (which doesn't make sense now in retrospect), but found out they just gotta go off screen. It was really fun trying to manage all the boats. The only issue I have is that if two boats are too close together, you can't control one and not the other, which lead to most of my losses, as I couldn't get the speed boat to turn fast enough from the fat boats. But other than that, great work :D

Great Game! Really fun, I would love some progressing in the game or levels. Overall great stuff.

Thank you all :)
Good that you pointed the "missing of the goal" out :D
I added it to the describtion and hope people read it there or in the comments^^

Man a simple concept but incredibly addictive. It's a really good idea and executed perfectly. When I started playing I thought "it'd be nice if ships could collide with other ships", and that's what you did. It creates tense situations and you're always trying to go with the least terrible option. You have a solid base prototype to keep adding new mechanics and making it even more compelling, good job!

This is a really fun take on the theme! I like the way you guide the ships, it feels very well executed. My only criticism is that most of the time you don't have enough time to react to the boats coming in on the bottom left and right section of the screen due to how close they spawn to the rocks. Other than that, I think it would be a cool concept to see expanded.

A very solid and polished arcade entry! Using a lighthouse to guide ships is a perfect fit for the 'Signal' theme. I especially liked the particle effects for the water—even with simple graphics, those small details add a lot of 'juice' and make the movement feel more dynamic.

I’d suggest expanding the reward system. While chasing a high score is fun, adding some unlockable ship skins, power-ups, or different map layouts would give the player more long-term goals. The difficulty ramp is quite steep, but it makes for a very intense experience! Great job on the core mechanics.

That was hectic!

You had the same idea that we did, although you made it more lightweight and simple :)

Everything worked as one could expect. I encountered no bugs. It was fun using light on/off tactically to not distract the wrong ship. In the end it seemed impossible to go on.

Music was okay. Some sound effects or ambiance could have added to the mood.
