The idea of splitting the abilities left and right is quite cool! The collision detection is a bit wonky, the text hard to read, but congrats for making the game in time :)!

The controls are a bit clunky and the jump is a bit unstable but it's a nice and creative concept that could be really cool with a bit more of work.

It's a good take on the theme and I quite like the concept, though the grappling hook is fairly difficult to use and the upwards momentum on a wall jump is likewise a bit more of a hazard than anything haha, still pretty fun and challenging to get through and the infinite jump bug is a good bit of fun to mess with. All in all, a solid entry!

The idea here was fun but it is a little difficult to control

I really like the concept, really fits the theme. Also a cute artstyle. Good job overall! The level itself was a bit hard tho, but still fun.

Nice game! I agree with with BlackOpsBen that if there was perhaps a more streamlined approach to controls would benefit the game but I really like the concept and music. There also is a glitch that I found where if you are on the wall and mash jump, your character can have infinite jumps starting on the 2nd wall section. Besides that, good job and good luck in the competition!♋︎

Thank you for the comment! Yeah, unfortunately we couldn't figure out what was causing the infinite jumps bug on time for the submission, but we're glad you enjoyed the game nonetheless!

I dig the concept! Even reading the instructions though it was pretty hard to figure out. I would recommend having the grapple hook not require you to click on the wall, but rather in the direction of your mouse click.
