This was nice! I really liked the puzzle aspect of it, and even though the art is simple, it looks good. At one point I was able to shoot across the room using the hookshot, and I'm not sure if that was intentional. I think it was the first room where the "dust" effect is in. I shot the hookshot to the right off the screen, and suddenly I shot across the room into the next room lol. It was a little difficult playing on a laptop with trackpad, but that's my own fault. Had a good time with this, great work!

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! And no you weren't meant to be able to shoot across an entire room, and skipping it, but that's what happens when working with a hookshot, when it zooms you across the room there is little I can do to restrict that. I tried in most rooms to make it impossible to skip the puzzle, but still my solutions are only to alter the tilemap, and even then you are able to hit targets way off. I added a timer to all hooks when shot as to attempt to prevent this issue :)
