Fin needs your Help!

Ernest Hemingwhale is the last remaining person living inside of Fin, the mechanical whale. When one day slimy Squiddies show up and start making a mess, Fin asks for help! Ernest sets out on an adventurous journey through the whale, trying to help his friend get rid of his unexpected guests!

it's a really great game, the push-pull mechanic is such a fun, yet simple idea and extremely satisfying! and although there's total (and intentional) chaos on the screen sometimes, the game runs smoothly and without bugs or crashes, which makes the experience even better. there's so much to explore and little details to discover, i enjoyed trying to find all the puns and jokes (and i find them way too funny). and even though i spent most of the time exploring, it never gets boring because of the unique art style and the great music! i absolutely recommend this game, i love it and am really looking forward to all the puns and crazy things i have yet to find

In this game you are inside a giant whale solving puzzles. I love everything about it: from the whale puns to the attention to detail that the developer has put into every corner of the world. You can feel that they had a ton of fun creating this: the crazy candy-like art style, the banger soundtrack and the funny story. It's the kind of game that puts a smile on your face every time you start it up.

such a lovely and pretty game! the gameplay and story fit very well together, I LOVE the art style and the bright colors, and the magnetic-handy-gloves-make-pure-chaos mechanic makes so much fun:D You can easily tell that this game was made with a lot of love and soul, and that at least one of the devs is addicted to whale-puns!

Fun and colourful game that is unfortunately very short, love the world building and the art style I just wish there was more of it, but if you like puzzle platformers you will probably enjoy your time with this
