Nice game, though a bit difficult. As people mentioned before, making the hitbox of the pins would've been nice or some other sort of assist. Another thing you might consider adding is, that the pins could glow or have some sort of outline, as in the current game they are difficult to see. Another thing I'd love to see would maybe be some different kinds of keys or another type of challenge.

This game is really well made, Good Job!

(Also, it would be cool if you could play my game too! ^^)

Would have been 10 times more fun if hooking on pins was easier, it's kinda random right now.
Also some automatic pin targeting, especially when the speed is high, would be nice.

Developer (1 edit)

I would do that but it kinda removes some of the challenge an easy solution would be a difficulty system

Wow, that's a great game. The music, the graphics, the idea. Excellent.

Developer

Cool game for me especially the graphics (plz review my game and i will reviews yours by make sure comment at here to notify me)

Developer

Thank you

Very fun game! I liked the flying and swinging around. maybe you could make the Pins more noticeable? maybe something like a glow around them or something. I liked reading the posters and papers in the bulletin! Sometimes I hook onto something way above and I go flying up, which is funny not going to lie. the collisions of the pins can be a lifesaver or a game-ending thing. when you land on the pin you can sit there for a while and think about where to go. but like I said earlier when you flying. you can hit a pin and be launched down! but that's part of the challenge I'm guessing. but it was very fun and challenging!

Great game. I loved grappling around.

The pins are a bit hard to see and grab, especially if you end up falling really far. Could do with the ability to speed up the text, I still want to read it, just not that slowly.

Light effects were really nice too

Submitted

That was a great game. Pretty polished. Though the pins were definitely hard to see and there should be a radius where the grapple automatically sticks to the nearby pin.
Plus there was a bug where if you dont accurately pinpoint on a pin, it would grapple to the last point usually very far above and it would yeet you into the air skipping most of the level.

Other than that, it was pretty good and fun to play.

Developer

Thank you so much! i really appreciate you

Nice mechanics and fun to play!

Submitted

Very fun. Frustrating though. You also can randomly latch onto pins 100 meters in the air sometimes. And sometimes you can latch onto pins below you even though you arent aiming at it. Its frustrating by design however so I am not complaining about that. Good Game hope it wins.

lovin it

This was very fun and addictive to try to get the highest score, I enjoyed it great job!

Developer

Thank you

Fun to play, loved the story. Graphics and music are perfect, only issue (seems to be happening to everyone) I grapple on pins that are really far off screen sometimes, but otherwise, top tier game for sure.

Submitted

Cool game, I loved the art and the sound effects, I think that some indication on which pin you will grapple to is needed, sometimes I pressed the button and the player was flying down to some pin that I grappled to also if there was some softer punishment for falling like some platforms every 100 progress points or something that would keep you from restarting and also give to players some extra reward to achieve a higher score, I had really fun time playing, good job!

Submitted

Very fun to play, music is awesome, art is pretty, overall can't find problems, aside from maybe pins that you need to shoot your rope at are sometimes hard to see

Developer

Thank you very much i really appreciate feedback

Submitted

Nice uniqueness to other games. Fun to play something different :).

Wish the pins were a bit bigger and easier to see, other then that I can see this being a fun game to continue working on after the Jam, be interested to see where you take it.

Thank you

Amazing stuff! It is very fun to swing on the pins and I quite like it! Visuals are also great.

Developer(+1)

Thank you

Really neat concept, I like the bouncing around and falling to reset, reminds me a lot of Getting Over it With Bennett Foddy. The art is also great, cool little snippets here and there. The only thing that could get worked on is the detection of pin clicking, half the time I clicked near one it caught the other half it didn't so I didn't really feel in control. Otherwise great work! Keep it up!

Developer(+1)

A lot of people have compared it to getting over it lol

Submitted

good idea
