Here's my entry for the Pico-8 advent calendar 2019:

POLAR PANIC

• Stay alive in the arctic while climate change destroys your habitat!
• Eat fish to keep your hunger down or you will starve!
• Stay away from trash and don't fall into the water.

Controls

⬆️ ⬇️ ⬅️ ➡️ - jump between floes

That's all there is to it really!
Every now and then disaster strikes which will make it harder to stay alive.
Do your best and good luck!

so stressful. so cute. so stressful. so cute. arrrghhhhh!

I love this game. It's so polished and stressful to play in a fantastic way. 😆

Wow ! Nice, this is fun and gameplay is good :)

So far my high score is 41 seconds. If I can only make it to a minute...

Ah ! I survived 52-seconds.

What's the secret to a high-score ? Don't worry so much about the fish as your footing. Always see a clear path to where you are standing and will stand seconds from now.

Sacrifice eating an oil popsicile if it will save your footing.

Nice game ! Definitely requires the brain. Star for you, @johanp.

Thanks everyone, glad to hear you like it.

I just made it to 86s. Never seen anything past 100, can it be done? There is probably a series of events that are more favourable than others.

Hey @johanp. I went onto ArcadePreHAcks and I saw that your game has been uploaded with out your permission. Much love, Rimuru.

Nice job.
Survived in 96 seconds.
That plastic was so sad especially for food substitution when no fish to eat.

Over 100 is possible. Most deaths are preventable, even that far into the game.

Amazing game!!! Ran into a lil crash this evenin on 0.2.0c, see ss

Your feedback helps me a lot, A very meaningful event, I hope everything will go well temple run

Super cool games for everyone. I like to play the game every time.

You see this is bc there was nowhere to escape so i had no choice but to die

I love it!
Awesome!

i learned a valuable lesson. death is inevitable, so you either die asap or live a bit longer to ask your crush out on a date. memento mori
