Whale and dolphin conservation x Swimpossible!

About the Game
In Swimpossible! you are Craig a reverse mermaid with an ambition to wiggle and flail swim upstream. Control each limb separately while dodging worms, ducks, waves and whatever else the river might throw at you. Hilarious to fail butt satisfying to beat, put your patience to the test in this swimming based rage-game.
Find the momentum in your swimming movement. Every stroke counts... and so does every mistake.
Master your leg and arm coordination... Or don't, we're not your boss.
Race the clock and achieve enviable glory by setting new records on the global leaderboard... Until someone faster ruins it. Well, at least you might get temporary bragging rights.
Prepare to lose progress, maybe parts of your dignity, but never lose that smile on your face... Probably.
You will get better with practice... and also look and feel ridiculous the whole time.
Failure is always an option... But hey, at least you have a great butt while doing it.
Explore beautiful, vibrant yet serene environments... that might treacherously drag you back downstream.
Become Craig and enjoy a lovable small story of belonging... that is, if you set aside all the bonking into worms or getting zapped by eels.
Catch your breath in quiet and calm checkpoint areas where nothing can hurt you... Yet.

User Reviews
Very fun game! it's hard but funny, once you get the hang of it you'll love it (or it'll drive you mad)
The best foddian since Getting over it.
I made it 20 minutes before having to take my first break, all the while laughing at the audacity of this game.
If you love getting the right kind of mad, or if you have an anger issue that you are trying to work through, this is the kind of game you are looking for.
Worth it for the subtle jiggle physics alone
Eventually you actually learn how to move gracefully...ish
Fun Rage game
On an unrelated note, I went out and got some fried duck today
10/10 rage game. Looking for a conch shell to to use as weapon and turn that little turtle into turtle soup
If you can't swim against the current, go with the flow.
Swimpossible! drags you in with its adorable art, gripping in-game mechanics and relaxing environment design; Craig is an absolute cutie patootie. If only similar sentiments could pass about the game itself – the game is definitely challenging and is so right from the very start, I think an implementation of different difficulties or more checkpoints could prove beneficial and feel more rewarding for all kinds of players.
I'm excited to see further updates and developments for the game :)
