The controls were kind weird, but i really liked the mechanic, and loved the graphics!

Submitted

The idea is really good, but I feel like the controls of the platforming part are a bit too slippery. It's still a great game tho.

Cool concept, but the controls were clumsy to the point of making it basically unplayable for me, especially since the level of bounce/roll the ball had was inconsistent, and I kept getting stuck on corners in a way that felt more buggy than intentional. I gave up when I got to the second area and couldn't figure out what to do, since there was no hook to try and grab, and the one I'd gotten in the previous zone didn't exist, and nothing I was doing seemed to make a difference. The visuals are very clean and the hook throwing mechanic is pretty satisfying, however. Definitely worth exploring further.

Very interesting game, at first i struggled in understanding that i had to join the two pieces but overall is well crafted.

Great job, the simple black and white felt perfect!

Developer

Colors are too expensive anyway :p

Good start! I love the screen shake effect!

Developer

Thanks! I usually implement the screenshake first and make a game around it ^^

Shows a lot of promise!

If this was a mobile game, I could see myself playing it every day for months.

Developer

Thanks! month might be a bit much for this limited concept ^^

I like the jumping chain, very satisfying!
One comment is that the game isn't entirely predictable, most of it is just some guessing work. Please expand, you have great potential :D

Really amazing game!! Also, at the final level the hook shot can clip through the wall where there's the crevice.

Developer

Damned, thanks for the report =)

Pretty cool! Once I figured out how to wall jump, the game really opened up. Much better than my submission tbh!

the game is pretty fun but there is a bug where the player is not able to shoot after trying to aim while moving. I don't know how to stop it from happening but it is impossible to continue afterwards. the linking is super cool though and the feedback is solid. Would be nice to have a feed back when getting the keys to combine.

Developer

Ho no! I've not seen this bug! Thanks for the heads up

I liked it a lot! Some levels were really hard and challenging too so I liked that too.

Submitted(+1)

Very fun! Last level was a bit more finicky than interesting, but that's my only complaint

Developer(+1)

Yeah, I struggled a bit to make interesting levels. I always forget that level design is a skill to master

Submitted(+1)

Yeah, definitely a skill I could use working on, lol. As satisfying as the dozens of bounces were to watch, I think it might be easier to design levels around a hookshot with fewer bounces. Just my two cents though :)

Awesome effect and mechanics. But the controls are a bit slippery and the mouse aiming doesn't really work. Still a solid idea. Feel free to rate and comment on our game as well! https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2021/rate/1082401

Frustrating platforming, but a good concept.

Submitted(+1)

Very cool concept an fun to play. I'd love some more levels!

The platforming is quite hard, but it was possible to complete the game

Submitted(+1)

Cool idea, but the platforming is not great and frustrating.

Developer

Fair point, I could have spent more time on the character controller.
