This game is pretty fun! I did feel like I could climb up any wall, though. Maybe add some kind of enemy, or spike trap?

Also, maybe add a timer so we can share our times with friends? Cool!

The game also has the most repetitive song I've ever heard... haha! Maybe switch the melodies up a bit here and there?

Wow, this is a really genuine and interesting concept that you've pulled off in this time limit! The idea is great and executed really really well, I love this mechanic and you've presented it to the player concisely. The graphics are nice and just an overall great entry. Well done!

Submitted

Damn I love it so much !!! So much fun with a gameplay so simple ! The level design is also really satisfying <3 I even expected an ending way more difficult X'D

Submitted

The game idea is quite interesting, I enjoyed it. If you want to expand the game, you can make more levels or something, and maybe limit the number of spears you can throw.

Developer

there was a limit before but it kinda made it hard to climb up and I didn’t know if the player could then like get stuck somewhere where they couldn’t get some spears back so I removed it

Submitted

Really fun gameplay! I thought there were going to be enemies, but just having a million spears to make a mountain-sized trampoline is fine too!
And yes, I did do that. And it kinda started to lag. Then I moved further up and it was fine, so I guess you did take some kind of measure against this insanity!

Great game!

Developer

I wanted to implement mountain lions but I don’t think it would’ve came out correctly 

Submitted

I liked the game! As said by Bunnywabbit13 the purpose could have been more clearly defined. Either way I made it to the top by sticking the Spears into the invisible side barrier :D

Developer

which side was it? I tried to make it so that if you were to do that, you’d hit your head (I might have missed on the right side, however you certainly couldn’t have beaten it entirely like that? You only skipped a few parts and then made it to the top?

Submitted

It was the right side, I hit my head eventually but I skipped a good part, I went back and did it legit later though.

Congratz on your first public game!

The game looks really nice, (who doesn't like mountains, am i rite?), and the spear mechanic is fun too.

I think the game just lacks a purpose, or something to do? (Unless I missed something), right now it's like a playground which you can fill up with your spears (done that :D), but  some gameplay objective would be nice.

Good job nonetheless :)

Developer

well the objective is to get to the top of the mountain and reach the flag (I never told the players that so my fault) but to me it kinda made sense that if I tell the players they can bounce off spears and to have a proper CLIMBING equipment (or spears) it would make sense to climb the mountain. Maybe you actually did that but when you reach the flag you should’ve gotten to the end screen that tells you that’s you reached the top. 

ah I see, I think i scoured through the map pretty well, but I guess I was just unlucky then d:
