Aside from a bug where the car stopped being able to shoot, fun game(this went away after I paused and unpaused the game though). Found the grapple to be amazing in assisting the movement

I'm glad you liked it! The grapple is my favorite part too. We haven't had that issue with losing shooting, I'll have to look into that, thank you!

It takes some getting used to but the controls are the center of the game and are not going anywhere.

Very cool little game. Could do with some optimisation. I love the Dark Souls esque death screen!

Truly amazing work, loved it all the way and it was fun....

there were some problems here and there but I think for a 48 hrs development project those can be ignored.....

Overall amazing work, you nailed it in 48 hrs of time span....

Really fun idea, loved the blending of the shooting and driving mechanics, I'd say the telegraphing and control for the grapple could use a little work but a great game still (I found the direction of the grapple would shift when hovering in the open gaps which made some mid-air grapples a little jarring)

We appreciate the feedback! I'm not sure what you mean with the grapple, but I do know it's coded at a fixed point so you don't swing with moving platforms. Is that what you're referring to?
