I really enjoyed the game; the music was great and it fit the theme perfectly. My only problem was that it was sometimes difficult to know where to go, but overall, I had a great time playing it.

How does your game fit the theme?
Getting Deeper It is a game where you get deeper down to reach the goal. Which fits the theme of diving deeper. You can also swing with your grappling gun which is technically diving when you are falling :)
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
No. Almost all the code and assets is made from scratch but the game music and sound effect are free commercially available assets.

The grappling concept is very interesting, although in some levels I felt that I don't know where to go.
I really liked this game! The movement feels great to work with, and it is very satisfying to fling yourself right into the end of the level. However I did get to the end of level 2 and got stuck on the corner of the orange block that had the goal, and couldn’t get up(So I had to reset). Besides that, I really enjoyed this game(btw if you want, plase check out my weird little game)!
overall, the game extremely fits the theme!
also i like the grappling :)
The concept is fresh, the swinging is always great in videogames, the falling and grappling speed felt a bit slow in my opinion. Very cool game though.
Neat game idea, I liked swinging around the stages with the grapple hook! Though not sure if its on my end but the game ran rather slow and made trying to get around much harder. It was also kind of hard to find where the goal was or if I was heading the right direction. It was a fun game though, nice work!
Cool game idea... felt a bit like spidy :D but i was a little confused what i should exactly do while playing
Cool mechanic but I think the movement is too slow, You could make some sick swings with smooth fast movement. Nice game.
Nice! Keep up the work. You should go check this game ( made by KevEatsCheese ) after checking mine too, it uses the same mechanics as yours, you may get inspired?
Awesome little mechanic. A lot can be done with that mechanic. I do wish there was more indacation of where I was suppose to go. I got a bit tired or restarting over again because I went the wrong way. I do think the ragdoll mechanic is one of the most interesting I played so far. Fun game!
The game is very nice, it's original. I just find the texture of the character very strange.
really fun movement system. The only thing i would say is make the character faster, it would really give you a sense of momentum. Would you mind rating mine? https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10/rate/2236551
The movement mechanics are very cool and unique. I also really enjoyed the minimalistic art style.
