Hello all,

Here's a quick November update for Reach the Ocean.

Added a game intro

A small game intro has been before the start screen. I wanted to have people crank through it, but it wasn't turning out the way I wanted it. I will keep working on it for a future update.

Other changes

Removed an enemy in level 8 and a few spelling errors.

New: Instruction manual & strategy guide

I have heard from many people that the game is really hard. So, Reach the Ocean now has a 2-in-1 instruction manual and a strategy guide that shows almost everything in the game.

The instruction part from the itch page has been included. Along with some new art, lore, how to access the hidden shell rooms, how to get scrolls, what to expect from the boss and much more is now in the guide.

 What the guide doesn't have is how to get every shell in the game. That would require a separate guide. That new guide will show each level and the best way to get all the shells, maybe I can add a video or 2 into the pdf and hopefully the file size won't be too big to upload. 

Also, Reach the Ocean merchandise and store front are coming very soon.

Thanks again and keep shellin' .
