Nice Idea, pretty good execution, I really enjoy the vibe of the global game, Level design is well done too, You made a really good job in one week and alone it's pretty impressive !

Submitted

Beautiful game! Really enjoyable! I found a little interesting  bug (ha ha)  though, where if the caterpillar climbs on top of the reel and you begin unwinding it the caterpillar seems to grow longer as well?

Submitted

Really neat game, the controls were confusing at first, but got the hang of it pretty quickly. And the overall vibe was really chill and enjoyable to play. One thing I would suggest is, that maybe the vine that you jumped onto becomes the selected one automatically.

Submitted

Interesting! Innovative! Great game design. Good Luck!

This game was really relaxing to play. The artwork is very stylised and the music is calm. As already mentioned the controls felt quite strange. Other than that, great job!

Submitted

Nice take on the theme. The controls are a little weird, but once you get used to it then everything falls into place. Good relaxing game, well done!

Submitted

Nice Game, nice idea, the controls are not natural to me, but its OK, cogratulations

This is such a hidden gem among the other game jam games! This is by far the most unique take on the theme and I love it. From the presentation to the relaxing sound design, this game has lots of potential to become a hit mobile game. The only criticism I have is the control scheme because I find myself clicking then scrolling up or down instead of pressing the 'R' and 'F' keys to adjust the vines. Nevertheless, this was a really impressive game and I thank you for this pleasant experience you molded for us. Congrats!

This was wonderful! I had an issue when I first launched the game where the vines wouldn't swing past a certain angle but after reloading it worked much better. Overall this is just a great game nice and relaxing and looks amazing.

Played through your game in this video here at 00:16:10.

A really innovative take on the theme, the control scheme was a bit confusing but once you got the hang of it it was mostly fine. Extremely pleasant, especially the soundtrack.

Submitted

I think they have a lot of buttons.

Perhaps it would be better if you kept control of the vines on the mouse, control of the caterpillar on the keyboard.
This would make it easier to understand the controls.

Configuration example: Select the vines at the click of the mouse and with the mouse scroll, grow and shrink the vines.
Do not dedicate a button to turn the caterpillar, but already include the action in the "A" and "D" keys themselves.

I recommend Donald Norman's book, The Design of Everyday Things.

Congratulations for the game.

Finally something without time-rewind. It's a really cute game. Nice job.

Submitted

Really creative! I like how you can control the pulleys and control your swing! Really nice job!

Submitted

What a cute game! I really liked the mechanics of changing the size of the vineyard to pass the stage, the art is very beautiful and well resolved, and the music fits very well with the game as a whole, good job!

Submitted

Very relaxing game. I could definitely see myself playing this on the train or something on my way to work. I think it could work well in a mobile format. It might also be worth turning it into a kind of game where you have to place the pulleys yourself and see if you can beat a level in the least amount of pulleys as possible.

Submitted

That was really enjoyable and relaxing to play!

Submitted

Great game. I love the concept.

More levels please!

Submitted

This is great! The physics and the movement really sell it. I would have preferred continuous movement for the climbing, though, but really enjoyed my swinging! Nice touch with the ending!
