I like the concept of being able to move hands and legs separately. But in the end, it feels more like swimming than climbing haha. 

Developer

Yeah, it does, but that's OK!

Good game for 72 hours jam! I like core mechanics, but unfortunaly they became monotonous over time. Controlls are great, I love idea of playing with both hands on a keyboard. Graphics also need some improvment. Overall it's a solid game created in a short time. Great job!

Thanks, although it wasn't 72 hours, it was more like 6.But I'm gladd to hear you like it!

Submitted

Sooo yeah, what to say ? good game. Everything was made from scratch, which is very impressive ! You could indeed spam the buttons but even though, I had fun ! Nice game for 72 hours !

Developer

Thank you; I'm working on the spam!

Submitted

pretty impressive and good game mechanics. need some improvement on game art work though.

Developer

Really? I thought the art wasn't that bad

Submitted

For a game built on Scratch, I've gotta say that it was impressive what you were able to do! I share the sentiments with the others about the controls being spammable (I got to 2020 before calling it quits), but I can see what you were going for with those QWOP inspirations.

I think you have something solid to build on, if you choose to continue working on it later. But you definitely got the climbing aspect of the game jam's theme down, good work ^^

Thanks so much! Yeah, the spam thing is an issue, but I'll work on it! I've been working on Scratch forfour years and nine months, so I can make some outlandish stuff! Thank you for the review, and I'll work on the spam control!

Submitted

That's great! You have a really solid base here for 3 days of work. I'm excited to see what you do to improve it!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! (BTW, your game is my favorite. If I don't win, I hope you do!)

I got 2133, fun idea, but too easy to spam controls to win.

Developer

Yeah, I know about that, I was going to fix it, but then completely forgot! 

Submitted

A bit weird control scheme, other than that not that bad

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! The controls are supposed to be weird, it's kinda meant to be like QWOP.

Seems like you can just hold down the inputs and release them every 600ms or so to just keep going.  Was hoping for something a bit more dynamic.  Good job finishing :D

Developer

Yeah, I was working on the spam elimination, but ran out of time, sadly!
