I really love the drill. It was so crazy I can skip the majority of the game and do my spiderman. The music is good and so is the sound effect. Really love it! The only detail I notice is some block or texture are a little bit low resolution.

So many mechanics and levels for a week long jam. Bravo! I like how you repurposed the grappling to get past tight gaps and the music slaps!! I stayed on the menu just to bob my head to it

Summary:

Ui tutorial was well done, easy enough to understand what to do.  I really like the use of going back to the house after each level. Providing more of a story driven focus in the game and task completion visible for the player.

What I want to see:

  • Cutscenes of the story with more animation.
  • mechanics introduces in the shop. Maybe more than one way or tool you can buy in the shop to complete a level.

What I want think should improve:

  • Consistent tile map is needed. Pixel resolution needs consistent (32x32) should stay at the same. 
  • More guidance on the direction on the level. 
  • Providing a skip button on the dialogue, providing a audio button within the game. 
  • Polish on the shop, provide more readable text within the shop as well.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll probably be doing a bunch more gamejams in my lifetime, so I'll use this advice for basically forever. Thanks for playing my game!

A very straight forward game! Can definitely use some polishing, playtesting and over bug fixing but for how big the levels are its quite well done! Good job!
