"Shelly" the crab is on a mission! Missions even :)


Deliver the shells of a proper color while avoiding every other shell.


Beware of the seagull attacks! :O

Classic <WSAD> to move, <Space> to burrow and avoid seagulls, <Escape> to pause the game.

Burrow ability is on a 6 second cooldown, so use it wisely!

Post-Jam updates section! star2

With the help of a cript by wonderful @badcop, I’ve made a separation between the original Jam version of the game and an updated Post-Jam version.

Post-Jam version has these updates, many of which were suggested by the lovely people in the comments:

V 1.2

12.05.2023
  • online leaderboard!
  • "grace period" for the Player to react and use the "burrow" ability
  • shells now spawn with an anti-overlap algorithm
  • shell spawn animation to prevent accidental pickups
  • score display
  • bonus/penalty time display
  • ambient sounds
  • crossfade between music tracks

V 1.1

06.05.2023
  • pause key is changed from Escape to Enter @ausstein
  • you can start the game by hitting Enter on the greeting screen
  • added an arrow that indicates when and where to deliver the shells @ryan-wine @dafluffypotato
  • removed the timer from the Burrow ability, Player can stay in the ground as long as they wish @badcop
  • collider on despawning shells is deactivated to prevent accidental pickups @ryan-wine
  • “hardmode” with 3 Seagulls was removed - now an additional Seagull spawns every 500 points @ausstein
