How does your game fit the theme?
The end of the rope leads to the beginning of the next level :)

Also, the end of the game leads to the beginning of the game haha.

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Everything except for the music was made by myself from scratch.

Didn't understand how to cross the level, tried all the ways. The character was cute tho.

Good game quite cool for me

Great game! I wish there were some more levels to it, and the rope seems to pull on the player in a way that isn't super intuitive. I think with a bit more time fine tuning the rope controls this has some potential for a really fun core mechanic.

I'm afraid I'm not getting much of the theme though. The "end" comes through clear with the "end" of the rope, but the "beginning" isn't really shining through in a novel way. Maybe do something with the other end of the rope, or have the goal be the beginning of the rope rather than a key box.

The graphics and sound were great, and I had fun!

Really fun game, I enjoyed the movement and the rope mechanic. There's potential for future updates, I think. Great job! :D

Great concept however the rope is very buggy and I struggled to get past the first level. The look and music were great the game just needs to be debugged.

This had a really cool concept! although tricky and a few bugs its a really great concept for a game mechanic! The music was also really nice and the graphics were pretty good!

The rope is frustrating and keeps getting stuck in the wall. That combined with my exhausted pinky finger leaves the game wanting.

The concept is actually real cool, but it is obvious it was rushed. always having to press down the shift button is a real minus for a platformer. Also when you pick the rope, the platformer becomes very buggy since the rope has colliders. Great try anyways!
