Fun platformer with some cool mechanics! Has a ton of potential so keep it up :)
This one is a strong contender! All about climbing using deliberate platformer maneuvers.
There's a lot of potential polish that could be added to this game. Use it as a base for learning more about your process, and I think you'll go quite far in the future!
Something you will have to figure out are the rendering hiccups, though.
Thanks! I wish I had more time this week to spend on it, came in just under the wire with what I had.
The rendering hiccups are annoying, it seems to only be present in the godot web build, and happens whenever a new material is first rendered, as far as I can tell. I'll have to do some digging and see if I can pre-load them for performance.
This must be why you see a lot of loading screens in games. The lag time that is on display otherwise would kill games like these.
I have spent a long time pondering this problem that was presented here, and I think I have finally gotten an understanding of it.

And in the case of the web version, it's using a compatibility renderer instead of the intended renderer (Forward+), which means that it's subject to the problems occurring in this article.
