Loved the art and overall ambience! I also love the concept with the staple gun. I *did* get stuck in the starting room for a while because I shot some staples that affixed themselves in the doorway lol. And that experience communicated to me that I'd be able to shoot staples into anything, so it was a bit rough until I shot the lights. But, overall, a fun experience!

Gooing Up!Really nice concept and level design! The glide mechanic is OP, I'm not sure it's meant to be this effective. If used with the fans you can jump reeeally high and skip a lot of stuff. And thank goodness because if I had to get past the white walls by climbing my own staples I would fail miserably. Don't have time to complete it right now, maybe I'll try again. Nice job!

Foddy Ropey DooWhat a pretty and atmospheric game!
I really enjoy the staple gun concept too! I love how the game doesn't really punish you for using a too many staples or anything, gives the player a lot of freedom.

GalacticanoeI can't play/rate it due to the lack of a Web build, but the game looks interesting from the screenshots and the gameplay video posted below.

Foddian HeightsGreat presentation in terms of visuals and audio and I thankfully didn't encounter any performance problems.
I also liked the overall gameplay with the stapler mechanic.
But as someone already mentioned, at first I didn't realize you were supposed to shoot the yellow lights.
After playing for a while I managed to get my time down to 104.97s.

Eye of KaneI love the atmosphere of the game, it's a solid 3rd person platformer too. I think some guidance on the glowing buttons in the start would be good for new players as I managed to get to the 3rd platform using the nail gun, then couldn't figure out what to do for longer than I'd like to admit.
I really love the concept of you building your own platforms too, and the steam punk sound effects tied it all together.
well Done

Skate King Jam VersionI would play & rate it but I can't even leave the first room cuz of my super-potato computer lol. Looks beautiful from the pictures though!

Ice course Of courseSorry about that, we didn’t have much time to optimize. Though even on our own system, it only lags for the first 40ish seconds while shaders compile, after that it ran pretty smooth, even if we restarted the game.
i recommend trying it one more time and giving it a minute to adjust.
Either way we’ll see If we’re allowed to do some quick optimizations.
