Ah, this was really cool. The game has a very cool feel, quite relaxing for something that demands so much attention. Nice balance. It was rounded off nicely by the music and rain SFX/art.
The controls were a bit complicated. Couldn't get very far, and I really tried haha. But, I kept coming back. There's definitely something alluring here. Was about to give up until I realised I could drag myself along the ground.
Could imagine this as a fun festival/party game, but, with some simpler controls, I can see myself relaxing and trying to make my way to the top.
Great work, keen to see if this is taken further :)
thank you so much! i'm glad you felt like coming back to it, that feels great to hear. I definitely agree that there's something here, and I'd be willing to give this another shot (with less slipperiness and better tutorialising) some day! I appreciate the kind words
The controls were a little fiddly to start with, and I didn't get very far ^^; but a cool premise!
Very cool 2D climbing game!
I never played any of the foddian climbing games so I don't really have the mechanics down, only got to 6.67m :S
Art style looks cool. Its very hard to climb and I made it to like 8m high only :(
Very impressive for 48 hours! I will echo that the controls do feel a bit slidey. Feel free to give my submission a look too if you have the time!
The controls are really slidey in an unsatisfying way that feels like I fall for reasons that aren't my fault, but I do really like the rhythm of the click and drag between each arm. But I made it farther in this than I ever did in GIRP, so I call that a win.
yeah i totally agree, even now i've been trying to fix this but to no avail. i'm glad you gave it a shot, maybe one day there'll be a not so slippery version of this!
Dang! this is a good one! I made it to 20m. I like the style and choice!!
I am so terrible at these kinds of games lol. But I am so impressed you were able to knock one out in 48 hours. Well done!
don't worry, pretty much everyone who has played this (including me) has had a ton of trouble even getting the basic controls down. I spent basically 90% of my 48 hours on the character controller, the rest was super duper simple to put together
Nice! I struggled with the movement, but that could just be me haha, well done! :)
nope, I'm pretty sure pretty much everyone has struggled with it! Unfortunately, I also struggled with the code for it, so it isn't actually exactly as I would like it, but it's definitely still pretty fun to learn imo
I'm a climber and this game really spoke to me. I'm not one for rage games like getting over it and jump king, but I really wanna finish this one.
Also, the background is SO gorgeous! Please tell me your secrets to making it look like that
I'm glad it made you feel that way! You'll be happy to know that the background was incredibly simple, because I just copied it from here: https://godotshaders.com/shader/starfield-2/
Chuck that shader on a ColorRect and play around with the variables to get what you want :)
A great entry in the wonky movement-based rage game genre. Nice interpretation of the theme, great job!
