is goood game , climbing mechanic is good i hope rate you my game

Really fun climbing mechanic.  I wish the grapple hooked to exactly the point on the platform I clicked.  Sometimes I'd click on the very edge of the platform to position myself better for the shot to follow, but I'd still end up standing in the middle of the platform, with the next shot barely out of reach.  Overall really fun and easy to understand and play.

Very on theme, simplistic but fun. I was afraid that I was going to run out of grapples near the end but I made it ! I may have run into a bug where if you take the extra grapple powerup and then don't use them until you run out of grapples you can't use the power up and will be forced to start the next round. Audio was nice and game play was solid. I would have enjoyed perhaps some obstacles or enemies but then it wouldn't be as relaxing as it is. Great work!

Surprisingly addictive (number and character go up!). I think the game could've benefited from being a bit more frantic, but I did enjoy the more strategic pacing. Can't argue with your take on the theme!

Submitted

Simple and fits the theme nicely

Submitted

Nice cave ambiance! I liked the upgrade system and I feel like you could add some strange upgrades or abilities to make it funnier! Good job! You can try my game if you want to!

Submitted

Fun game, I enjoyed the simple mechanics and found your game to be very relaxing. Well done!

Submitted

It's simple, but it works!

Could have been nice to have levels that are generated randomly every time you restart a run. Also, it's impossible to cancel the use of an ability, so I would sometime find myself not wanting to use my super grappling but couldn't.

All in all, great little idea!

I also have been unable to play on firefox :( but the graphics and overall atmosphere are very cool!

It's simple but respects the theme. Nice job, and keep working on it!

I can't play the game either.  Tried 3 browsers. Reply me when the game is fixed so I can rate it.

I added a key that "should" let you shoot again with "L". If not there's also a download file for the game

Submitted

I shoot the grapple but nothing happens. Maybe explain the controls on the web page?

Developer

I tried another fix if you want to try again

I could finally play it.  Making player be able to throw another grapple in the middle of one would benefit this game a lot and with some platforms actually crumble before you reach them would make the game more challenging. With these 2 changes the upgrade system actually makes more sense too. In current version there is no point giving points to speed other than making gameplay faster. Which was also still slow even if I spent 10 points in it.  

Game was already fun to play and add more challenge to the game and you have a nice game loop.

Submitted

Interesting approach to the theme. The gameplay might be a bit slow, but the concept is quite original. Good job^^

Very nice game. I like the idea of the grapple hook. The player is scaling up to get the gems and getting new upgrades. The game would be even better if it would have a background music.

Please rate my game if you don't mind.

Submitted

I like the concept! I thought replaying the level would get repetitive but breaking the platforms changed things up and made it challenging, good call on that. I think you should try speeding up the grappling time. Nice job!

Submitted

i had a lot of fun with this! i can be a little oblivious sometimes, so it would have been a bit helpful if the instructions specified you need to click the platforms to grapple to them (as opposed to the walls or above the platform). i really like how the game progresses and ramps up. as a small qol tweak, i think the player can start at a faster speed, and the upgrades can go even faster than the max. regardless, once i figured everything out, i had a great time :) 

Submitted

This game was really fun to play!! Congrats!

Submitted

I'm sorry and maybe I'm stupid but I can't play your game ^^' I click to launch the grapple on the first platform and it makes a little noise and it removes a grapple use but then nothing happens and I can't send grapple anymore. Should I do something else? Do I need to do something with the keyboard or is everything done with the mouse?

Developer

No idea what the problem could be, I can't reproduce the issue. Escape opens a menu, you can try a new run or going back to the main menu to reset everything

Submitted

It's really weird, I tried on firefox and I still have the same problem, here's a gif of what's happening



but otherwise I managed to launch the game on my mac (on safari) and it's really pleasant and interesting, good job ;)

Submitted

I have really enjoyed the game and I have managed to escape the hole! My Audio didn't work, I couldn't hear anything even tho there are audio settings? Overall a fun game to play. Great job!
