I don't think I've seen any developer do this many tweaks to a console (arcade) game before.

Personally, a game centered around "real water physics" is rather unappealing. Especially in a gaming medium where water levels are hated.

I played the unrevamped demo and the water physics are pretty legit.

But yeah, the game was flawed and it's inspiring to see a developer actually take criticism to heart and fix their product.

That is true, I wish other developers listened to people and actually fixed their product more.

It's cool that they care to do that.

I'd prefer if the game was tested and perfect before release though >_>

This is amazing. I might actually try this now, at least to reward them for their efforts.

Actually looking over all the changes, I must admit they're quite dedicated.
