I really enjoyed this! The parts of the wall that start to fall when you jump onto them are a good source of tension. It was cool seeing the environment transition to the town as you start to climb the building walls. The intro cutscene was really charming and set a good tone for the rest of the game.

My first time trying the game, I believe I encountered a bug. At the part where the large ice chunk falls revealing the way up, the environment didn't change in a way that allowed me to proceed. I tried backtracking but got stuck and had to restart the game. On the second attempt at the part with the giant ice chunk, the level became completely different and I was able to proceed. Maybe I was confused, but I think the new parts of the level didn't load properly on my first try.

Really good game. The mechanics feel great and the gameplay flows very well. Clean up a few of the bug and optimze a little and you could release this on steam!

Pretty good. Nice name

Fantastic visuals and super fun mechanics... couple issues with optmization but those go away when changing the configs, I'd love to see this being polished on a full release and get it for a december sale. Good job. (PS, I did managed to break collisions one time and grab the air, making me unable to wall move, which was fixed by grappling on to the nearest point, see image for reference )

Shhhh - no you didn't

Very juicy. The core mechanics are really well executed. Looks nice.
Even though there r a few bugs they were by no means distracting (Had a gamebreaking one).

The intro cut scene is so goofy and adds a ton of charm to the whole thing. The art style is really good looking and consistent and fits the theme and feel of the game very well.
