After almost 50 hours of this game and grinding to difficulty 29 at almost 100 mill score I can say that this game is such a fun casual game to play while listening to something, I didn't even realise I played for 50 hours Just be careful of the starfish... they creep up on you
Averall a really good game for a 2d shooter concept! Lots of customizations let you play the game how you would like, rather its as a tank or a speed shooter dps type, its really fun! in game currency (pearls) lets you use even higher ranked crustaceans to battle with for even more combinations!

It's visibly unfinished and needs a good bit of polish still, and its not particularly well balanced but for 4 dollars its a very good time.
Well, where do I even begin? Saltwater isn’t just a game. Oh no, it’s a life-altering, universe-bending masterpiece that has utterly, irrevocably transformed my existence. Forget space travel or discovering new galaxies—this shrimp survival game is the true pinnacle of human achievement. I’ve always considered myself a seasoned gamer, with a wealth of knowledge that most mere mortals can only dream of, but nothing prepared me for the epic journey of defending a shrimp from ocean creatures in a 2D perspective. As a quadrillionaire with access to untold riches and the finest luxuries, I thought I had seen it all. I’ve conquered planets, bent time, and sipped tea with the finest minds of the universe. But nothing has compared to the emotional rollercoaster I experienced with Saltwater. The way I mysteriously level up my shrimp with cards after each round… it’s like I can feel the universe itself shifting in my favor. In fact, I’m pretty sure this game has unlocked new neural pathways in my brain, so sophisticated that my wealth has doubled just from playing it. I can only imagine that it’s also helping me solve world hunger and discovering new elements of the periodic table, but let’s stay focused. In short, if you’re looking for a mere game, don’t bother. But if you’re ready for an experience that will leave you questioning the very nature of existence, transforming you into a superior being of cosmic wisdom and shrimp-related knowledge, then dive into Saltwater. It’s not just a game; it’s an immersion into a whole new reality. Every round has changed my life… which is saying something considering I can’t remember the last time I actually needed to change.
Unique survival game, you play as a shrimp and survive. The game needs better UI and visuals though.
