How does your game represent "Slick"?
We believe that there is nothing more slick than grapplehooks, slow motion and backflips. Our goal was to capture the feeling of slickness in a tight 2D platformer, hope you think it is slick.

Cool game, nice graphics, music was unexpected but welcoming :)

Very slick grapplehook and holy SLICK backflips! Both the grapplehook and praying mechanic feels very polished. My only suggestion with the level design is to introduce the eyes dudes sooner since praying didn't feel like a main mechanic until midway through, I get players probably needing getting used to the grapple hook though! Awesome animations and pixel art. Awesome job!!!

Super creative premise and the grappling hook worked really well. By the end I was doing most of it without even touching the ground!

Crazy impressed by this game, the grappling feels slick and satisfying, and the artwork is absolutely stunning. The player animations are also super smooth, and the music is catchy and really fits the vibe; it's really incredible what you were able to make in such a short time. Amazing job!!

nice graphics and specially nice grappling hook. I did not see any enemy for some reason. I went at the end and it was the starting zone but inverted. Nice experience nonetheless. Good job!

The grapplehook is so satisfying to use! Loved the paralaxing background as well. The art and audio just fit so well together and are very slick. Nice job! :)

I loved the movement! The music was great too, it reminds me of Machine Girl a bit. It's a shame I did something to accidentally quit out before I finished it. Great work!

I've been saying that not enough games follow the exciting and thankless job of the mighty Grapplehook Priest.

The art style was super great! I think I clicked a weird spot on the screen or out of the window and the whole game got a weird pink tint to it around halfway through... I'll say the grapple was a little unreliable at times, I feel like a nice indicator of some sort to better understand max grapple distance mid jump would have gone a long way. 

Cool music as well, great jam to vibe out and cleanse a mountain to!

I think the controls could use some fine tuning but good lord this game is fire, good stuff!

Fun but difficult game. I love the art and main mechanic, but it's quite difficult.

Beautiful game with some great animations, I love the twirl!I also struggled a bit with the difficulty to start, I think it would have been okay if it felt quicker to get back into the action rather than falling really far down and having to wait to respawn.

Visually it's a great game from the rip. 

Gameplay is awesome but starts a bit too steep. You need to get your players hooked on the feeling of flying through before you make them deal with difficult scenarios. Regardless was a fun game.
