This is really charming! I do wish there were a little more gameplay meat and bones here (perhaps a puzzle challenge where you design the terrain that'll take the climbers from predetermined points A to B) but as a sandbox it's fairly fun in its own right. Especially impressed with the terrain raising/smoothing and climber AI. Great solo work!!
Thanks for playing! I was torn between a Lemmings-style puzzle game and a management sim when designing this. With how much is here there's probably still room to go either way! I used up almost all of my time getting the terrain and AI working so I'm really happy that you liked them :D
Yeah, makes perfect sense. Really great groundwork (pun intended) for a future game, if you choose to continue development :)
Nice sandbox game! I'm interested in how you got the AI working for the climbers.
Thanks for playing! I used the free version of the A* pathfinding project for the AI. It's a grid graph with a 90 degree slope limit and a high step offset on their character controllers :)
Really fun concept! The game is very relaxing to play enjoyed it a lot!
Thanks for playing! :)
You've got a nice chill atmosphere here! Terrain tools are intuitive to use and the little climbers are charming to look at! Music fits really well too!
Thanks that's great to hear! :D
Really cozy little game, was very fun to experiment! A small quality of life thing would have the mountains still raise and lower while holding down click rather than having to move it, as it made it a bit harder to be
Thanks for playing! It's funny you say that about the mountain raising as that's how it worked when I first made it, then I changed it to try and copy how Unity's terrain brush works. Something for me to have another look at!
Cool little mountain buidler. It's satisfying to watch the little climbers struggle on my big steep spiky profane peaks
Thanks for playing!
Omg! Soooo cute. Really cozy. Wish it was also snowing, maybe you can consider this if you would like to develop further. :)
Thanks for playing! Snowing is a great idea, I was wanting to have snow showing on the ground of high peaks so that would go with it well :)

Cute game. :D
Thanks for playing! Great teamwork to reach new heights :P
Nice little game, maybe to keep it relaxing sandbox you could add some ways to build up that base camp to give it some progress, otherwise nice game, good job :)
Thanks for playing! That's what I was hoping to do with more time, also being able to make trek routes that can get longer as you expand :)
I had a good time making a couple of mountains with this, unique idea and strangely relaxing!
Thanks for playing!
Relaxing. and potential for fun gameplay
Thanks for playing!
hmm/
so fun
Thanks for playing!
More controls/assets or an enemy/objective would really help this one
Thanks for playing!
