- Holy hell what a hard game, I found out it is endless after reaching 30 meters (went to comments). Cool game, I dig the dark aesthetic. My issue is that the gravity was a bit too fast for me? However that's a personal preference. Awesome game, very original theme implementation. I just wish there was audio. Good job!
How does the game fit into the theme?
In my game , the players get a single anchor to climb a Huge Cliff as they play as a Daring Mountaineer

I love the simple but nicely done art. The mood is there.
I would love a game like this with a player controller a bit more sharp.
I feel half the time I fall was because of slippy pixel I don't know ahah.
Maybe you could also add an area at the start that makes you understand the core mechanic of the grab before going into the first pit ! Like small stairs, one first easy jump and all.
But love the mechanic of jump grabbing my way up. Very cool good job !
Thankss :) , and yesss , i totally will setup a tutorial level
Cool idea! Kind of like a Getting Over It style game in a really clean 2D pixel art style which I love. I could definitely see this becoming a big game for streamers who love the punishing yet quirky gameplay. Not sure this is necessarily my kind of game, but I think you did a great job with the visuals and game design. I wasn't 100% sure of the connection to the theme, as it seemed like I could spam the rope infinitely, but it was a cool exploration of a really promising concept!
Thaanks XD , i felt like the infuriating part was what mad it stick together lol , and the theme , i was just trying to attribute having only a single rope that u latch and detach to climb up . XD
Love the graphics and the atmosphere! It might just be my skill issue, but I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do when I was on the first level, and wasn't sure how to advance :') Adding a guide would be nice!
Thankss . The game is basically you using the anchor to climb the cliffs. And i would totally add in a guide , i couldnt implement it as the jame was about to end XD
Good interpretation of the theme but i personally couldnt even make it out of the first hole you start in, i feel like it was unclear what i was supposed to do.
Cool gameplay and graphics style. It’s that great combination of “infuriating” and “irresistible” :)
There seems to be some little glitches tho. A few times, I grappled onto thin air.
Made it to 23 m, then slipped and fell all the way back to 1. Yikes!
Thanks :) , and ill sure look into the bugs XD
Nice theme interpretation, also like the artstyle! But sadly I am really bad at such games, so did not get pretty far .
Thankyouu , and i totally get it , neither did i XD
