How does your game fit the theme?
we were inspired by flash games like learn 2 fly and johnny upgrade that forced you to approach the same level over and over, returning with new upgrades. we incorporated more loops into our game including the idea of a jungle -> concrete jungle and monemtum via pendulum-like swinging.

WOW! Such a fun and cute game!

I really liked the game, and it got really fun when you got fully upgraded swinging above the trees :D

My only wish was to be able to see mroe infront of me. Cause sometimes I would just feel like I  went to a dead end and just have to make a leap of faith.

I really like the monkey fall :P

Well done, really polished and so much fun! :D

Very cute game! Would love to see this expanded with more things to interact with while swinging like maybe a hazard or a boost of some sort. Swinging is pretty fun and physics is pretty good!

Developer (1 edit)

Hey thanks for playing! We have some plans to add items to collect that have different effects like bananas to refill stamina but I hadn't thought about hazards. It's definitely something we'll look into now. Thanks for the feedback!

Fun concept! I like the grappling physics, but i think they deserve a bit of tweaking to make it more fun and fast, maybe a bit more forgiveable, too. I overall liked the art, sound effects and general theme. Great job!

Developer(+1)

Totally agree. We have some plans to go back and refine things once voting is done. Thank you for the feedback and playing our game, it's greatly appreciated!

Funny monkey. . . but honestly super simple and fun! 

Developer

Glad you liked it! Thanks for playing!

Once you get the hang of it, it's quite manageable. It started pretty tough because I just instantly fell to the bottom of the jungle. Love how the upgrades also help out the player. Also love the artstyle, especially the monkey.

Developer

i was thinking about that sudden spawn being a problem and, considering i'm the one that left it in, it's a problem i shall be solving! thanks for playing and sharing, we really appreciate it. :)

Difficult at first but quite satisfying once you get into a flow with it. I enjoyed it!

Developer

It does take some getting used to so thanks for sticking with it!

Why It's always these  type of games of games I spent hours frustating upon. But, once one gets the "hang" of swinging ,  you get score high scores. I found the armlength powerup the best one among the four. Anyways, the game had me so invested and was so fun for just a single mechanic.

Developer

Haha, that's awesome to hear! Armlength is goated lol. Glad you had a lot of fun playing!

Reminds me of my childhood, loved the music

Developer

Glad we hit that feeling. Thank you for checking it out!

Submitted(+1)

I really liked this one! It's such a charming game! The graphics were cure, and the music really fit the game! I love games that use momentum, and this game does this really well. I wish the upgrades made a bigger difference, but other than that, I really enjoyed it :)

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Yay! I'm glad you liked it! We have plans to improve the feel and impact of the upgrades after the rating process is over. Thanks for playing!

Developer

Thank you for checking it out!

Really felt like a game I'd play in computer class in school! Much more skill based than those games were and I really enjoyed that aspect of it.

Developer

We were inspired by flash games so I'm glad we hit that feeling for you! Yeah, we wanted it to be more of a skill based game where you improve the more you play. Thank you for playing!

The pendulum-like swinging is really fun. Love the main character has those big eyes :D 

Developer

That's exactly what we were going for. Glad you liked it!

Submitted(+1)

This is unexpectedly really fun to play, even though I suck at it. Nicely done! :D

Developer

Haha, yeah it's a bit tricky. We have some plans to improve the difficulty after the rating process is over. Thanks for playing! Glad to hear you had fun!

Took a few tries to get the hang of swinging and catching the next hold, but once I figured it out it was a lot of fun. Great visuals and the music fits perfectly!

Developer

Glad you liked it! Thanks for checking it out.

Getting big speed on a swing is great fun! Also I love the sprite when the monkey falls to his death, poor guy :(

Developer

It's okay, he lives on! I'm glad you had fun! Thanks for checking it out.
