The Best Of The, Uh, Water-Themed Golden Age Arcade Action Games

I love love love these 80s swimsuit vibes colors. Functional enough graphics, loved the giant Crab. Also, I love the item icons in the UI.
Sound: 7/10 Arg, annoying dings and beeps and boops, why was that such a thing in this era. Have a background song instead of a BEEP every time you click something imo. The song that does play during gameplay is functional and good enough, nothing special though. Cutesy arcade music
Play: 8/10 Pro-tip: you have to wait for the very last possible second. Also, don't neglect the diagonal movement! Lol the crab "boss". I actually felt pretty good at gaming from this. It was fun to play, decent controls.
Feel: 8/10
Love love love the colors, and it was fun to play. Not a favorite genre or anything, but definitely better than River Patrol and other similar contemporary games.
Attachment: 7/10 Definitely the best of this genre for this era, but not a genre I think I will return to all that regularly. I do like water-themed things, and the colors in this, but I don't see myself returning to it often. Also, btw, this is available on modern systems, so worth a try imo.
