A very fun submission that I didn't have very high expectations from initially. The whole "its just a rock" thing really subverted my expectations and that was a nice surprise. A simple jam game but very clever and actually doesn't feel bad to play. Well done!

Well done - making a game in 48hr is hard - good job on the pixel art. One small suggestion is that you lerp the camera movement since it is very jarring. Also sometimes the player sprite is off screen.

Loved the idea of being attacked by pickaxes! The controls felt really smooth and i had a blast just going through the level. good work!

I cracked up laughing when I realized that YOU are Rock, going on a climbing adventure. The controls felt great and I enjoyed the idea of being a video game rock running from typical player tools like pickaxes and bombs. Short and sweet!

By the way, we played your game on our stream tonight!

Can agree about not fitting theme but gameplay feels good. I like weird "characters". I would have played it more than that one level

short and sweet! the controls felt great, which is rare for a game jam. also i enjoyed the little easter eggs throughout the game that rewarded exploration, even in such a small world. the theme didn't seem to really be in the game, and there was no real special aspect to this game (nothing really stood out as unique)

Nice clean game, lacking in some gameplay mechanics but the setup for the game was very intriguing. Movement felt really clean, keep it up.

Interesting idea but it really feels like just another generic platformer and the theme isn't really being represented in my opinion, I also couldn't get past the first level after reaching (what i assume is the wall or a door at) the end. But the movement was really satisfying, better than most games it felt really snappy (in a good way)

Cool story concept, nice graphics and music. :) The pickax enemy is hilarious, but maybe it shouldn't be positioned literally next to the player at the start of the level lol :)

The connection to the theme is not so strong though, since it does not tie into the game mechanics as far as I can tell. It would be nice if the rock could actually attach to some walls to "climb" or something. Anyways, I wasn't sure if I was able to achieve the goal of the game - I just got to the point that says "yeah, you rock" but I wasn't sure if that was the end or not. (I couldn't find any other places to progress though).

Overall it's a nice effort and I enjoyed it.

Thanks! I wanted to tie the theme with the game mechanics a little more but I couldn't find a way to implement my idea in time. Still though, thanks for enjoying it!

i really like these type of climbing games where you have to get to the top and at any point you can fall down so it was really fun to play this game for a while

well done

Good game. The health bar gets in the way sometimes though.

Thanks! Yeah that health bar was rushed as I was running out of time.

I think a continuous Screen Scrolling would improve the game.

Yeah, I wanted to go for something different for this Jam but going back it gets really nauseating.
