Super cool game! I really liked how the grapple turned red and broke after a certain amount of time as well as having to navigate back to the entrance to escaping while you still can. Great game!

You literally don't have a floor. Instead you're swinging and floating.

super fun, game play is intuitive but unique. i like the overall vibe, the dead spiders marking your deaths is a really nice touch. swinging and momentum felt really, really good. i felt myself desperate for the teeniest tiniest amount of left/right control when not on a web – even if it wasn’t enough to really change anything it just feels bad as a player when you don’t have directional influence.
this is a fantastic game and sneakily very deep. great work and thanks for sharing it!
Thank you very much for your feedback.
It's nice to hear that you had fun with my game and your kind words for it.
I had a subtle movement while not attached to a web implemented. However, I undid it cause it didn't feel right for me.
I totally understand that it can be frustrating for one or the other. I might consider it for the future to implement it back again, even if it's just a little, subtle movement. Thanks for your criticism! Appreciated.
The acceleration feels very satisfying. I like that you managed to make a game that seems very easy at first glance, but then you notice that its quite difficult to consistently get enough flies to keep reloading your web shooters! At first I was a little confused what to do because the ceiling is very hard to see, so I tried shooting the flies instead, maybe make it stand out more against the background.
This is a very cool game, but I still didn't understand what the spiders that hang on the red web mean, the game is amazing
At first I was unsure of what to do, but after swinging for a while I figured out, that you have to enter the crater. Sadly I was unable to get past the first lvl more than once since I just didnt manage to aquire 50 flys and enter the crater again with the amount of swings. Overall it was interesting and played nicely, it's just that I found it somewhat hard. Its a good game.
You can move with WASD while you swing to control yourself a bit.
I think that's why you had problems gathering the 50 flys, since the first 2 levels are the easiest part of the game.
But the last 2 stages are actually hard though.
Let me know if there's anything else you've trouble with.
Thanks for playing!
