The game was very fun!!! But yeah I would have loved if it had like a button for ez reset like r or f5 so that I could reset the level quick!! And also I could Use the grappling hook to get back when I fell.

Thanks, glad you liked it! I'll be adding a quick reset button soon (when the jam's voting period is over). Also I figured it would be a bit mean to stop you from recovering if you fell, but I'll look into a better solution than grapple spam.

The game was very good , hanging around stuff while shooting was good but i noticed one thing  if i fall down due to jumping and dashing i just realised i can grapple hook them and jump and double jump to recover :O , but anyway very cool game

Thankyou for playing my game!

The grappling hook was great and I loved using it, but I feel like the dash killing momentum went against the fast pace of the rest of the game, and I found the music to be enjoyable as well! Great good and keep up the good work!

Developer(+1)

Cheers! I agree, I'll be reworking the dash after the voting ends.

It remembers me a game made from Dani ^^ Gj for submitting.If you fall down there is no tp by the way :D

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yeah, the kill box at the bottom of the level is a little jank.

Wow you can go so fast!

The most fun I have had moving around in all of the games I have tried out in this Jam.

The grapple hook mechanic is fantastic!

I wish there was a level with just boxes on different height levels to jump around in.

Thankyou so much, I'm glad you liked it!
I'm adding stuff to the game and I'll upload it after the voting period ends (so I don't have an unfair advantage).

I like this game! There are a lot of interesting mechanics!

Developer

Cheers!

The grappling hooks are really fun. I enjoyed the simple graphics and it was pretty difficult to complete all the levels since the movement feels kinda stiff and momentum doesn't really work. But it was still fun nonetheless. 

I think adding more sounds just to make it less repetitive and some background music would be very nice. Camera shake and particles would be ideal as well to make the game feel better. But considering you only had a week, this was very well done, great job!

Thank you! I'll be adding more polish and such after the voting period's over.

a very ahrd but fun game. could be more juicy but i had a great time with it.

Developer

Thankyou for playing! Glad you had fun.

Very satisfying grappling hook physics and double jump! The dashing felt off though, as velocity was cancelled at the end, and was not sure if it moved me only horizontally or vertically as well.

Developer

Thankyou for the kind words! 

The dashing particles are a little misleading, you only move horizontally. Definitely somehting I'd polish up if I didn't run out of time.

Submitted

The controls are a bit rigid and can definitely be worked on, especially the dash since it locks movement for a second after you're done with it.

But that being said, I did love how the grappling hook gives you a lot of freedom to work with, especially since it resets my jump and dash which lets me zoom across the stages. With a bit more refinement I think you got something good there, so keep it up!

Developer

Thankyou so much for playing my game! I'm glad you liked the grappling hook and I'll keep your feedback in mind.

its hard to control your movement in the air and i just end up overshooting landing from grappling hook

Developer

Thanks for checkng out my game! 

I'll take that into consideration.

Submitted

Getting some Karlson vibes there. It needs a bit more polish but it is impressive for one week.

Developer

Thankyou so much! Yeah, there's definately a list of things I wish I had time to polish.

Submitted

It lacks something that could indicate you if you're falling down or not, most of the times I found myself confused which direction I'm going, maybe some textures on white blocks would do the trick

Developer

That's fair enough. I agree the game could do with a bit more polish like that, thanks for checking it out!
