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!
Its original and enjoyable, just wish there was more things so it was less repettive
fun little game
Loved the game, a nice and simple concept. I could easily see it being expanded on :)
Nice game concept it was fun to play. Also art was well fit together
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.
I loved it! Especially the controllable jump, I never seem to be able to get that right...
Nice game, I love how it connects to the theme
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.
Really fun game, fits the theme well. I like the music and I love the sound effects. Good job!
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.
Really fun, I also really like the art!!
I like the art, the archers are very scary.
i finally win , really fun ,i like the art and idea
Well do challenging and fun
Graphics are really nice and enjoyable. It was a really pleasant experience to play the game. Congrats!
The drawings are really nicely done. Reminds me of those flash games we used to play in the pass. But it can be quite frustrating at times as the guard just causally shoot down the top of the chain and you have to start over. Feel free to rate and comment on our game as well! https://itch.io/jam/gmtk-2021/rate/1082401
Really nice concept! It's a bit hard at first but it's very much fun. Nice game!
This was a really clever, polished game! The idea of expanding the chain was great, and the controls were smooth and after a bit of trial and error, it was possible to block all the arrows and win. A fun experience, the sound design and art really stood out and enhanced the whole thing. Great job!
I'm glad to hear it! Difficulty balancing was something I was really worried about, so I'm glad it was fun and not too easy or difficult.
The art is great and themed well. Platforms work well, as does the collision with arrows. It could have perhaps used a controls explanation.
I love the idea behind it. Great job!
