Cool idea! It would be interesting if it had more different levels to it to explore the concept further.

Submitted

Awesome game! The art and player controller were excellent, I think I would have liked a little more space width wise to move around in, and maybe an indicator right before enemy shoots an arrow so u have a little bit more time to react. I’m just nitpicking though, great job!

good game good art the best game although it was hard because 

the enemies shoot upwards so it destroys all the chains

Submitted

Nice game - and the music is awesome! Did you make it on your own?

I definitely would like to play a longer version with more levels with increasing difficulty :)

Developer

thank you! I did make the music :) 

I definitely woulda made the game longer but I was really busy during the jam so I barely got this much done lol.

maybe I could update it into a full game later, we’ll see

Submitted

Cool game! Perhaps a bit simple, but it's fun. The biggest issue for me was I felt the shortest height you can jump was still too high sometimes. I lost a fair bit of chain by unintentionally overjumping the arrows.

Graphics, audio, and just the overall presentation are all excellent. Well done!

Submitted

I like how you have two different roles that you switch between, grabbing links vs blocking arrows. Gives the game a good rhythm.

Submitted

Ok, I’m in love with the concept, I don’t know if you think it will be possible to do multiple level? Because it’s really short, know. But the game are really good.

Submitted

Nice little game. Good work :)

Submitted

nice game.

Submitted

Nicely done!  I liked the balance of choosing whether to go for the extra links or block the arrows, and the music and sound effects  fit the vibe perfectly!

Submitted

Its original and enjoyable, just wish there was more things so it was less repettive

Submitted

fun little game

Submitted

Loved the game, a nice and simple concept. I could easily see it being expanded on :)

Submitted

Nice game concept it was fun to play. Also art was well fit together

Submitted

Game was a lot of fun. I think the jump might have to be made a bit more tight control wise if you were to extend this game to further levels. But I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Submitted

I loved it! Especially the controllable jump, I never seem to be able to get that right...

Submitted

Nice game, I love how it connects to the theme

Submitted

Fun original game. The player must time their movement well to win and predict where the arrows come next, and it's surprisingly polished too. Maybe, make the archers less predictable? This has the potential of a great time-killing game.

Submitted

Really fun game, fits the theme well. I like the music and I love the sound effects. Good job!

Submitted

Nice game! The movement is a bit annoying. It's so floaty. If the archers aim low and then high you just have to accept it.
