The art is really pretty, but I didn't know what to do after killing all the bugs on the screen, nothing happened.
Glad you liked the art! Press shift to build when your on a build platform
Hey, really cool game! The art style and music are on point, and the gameplay feels good. Maybe as the developer, you could handle some of the level design and let the player figure out the rest.
It was fun to play. I liked the art style; it looks cute. However, the building feels a bit unnecessary and could be simplified, as well as the controls. It definitely has some potential. Good job!
Music sounds great! The art style is super cute and clean!
The number on the web blocks are a bit hard to read due to low contrast:
I think adding a prompt to press shift while the character is on the platform would be great!
The game is super fun to play! Building and swinging a round feels great. The game looks polished. I adding platform checkpoints would be nice! I managed to make it up mostly with the little blocks and swinging.
Overall a really lovely game and adorable main character. Great job!
This game is extremely good!
If you plan on continuing the project, this would make an excellent rage game, like Jump King! Really hope to see a Steam release in the future!
I really liked this game and the music was really good too especially with how it changes when you go into the build mode. I just wish it wasn't so short I think it could be better as an endless game rather than one short level so I could play more because the swinging and building was a lot of fun to play with.
Really neat game, music was banging too!
I think it’s an interesting idea, and the presentation is very nice (if anything, some particles could perhaps add a bit of juice).
However, I think it needs more constraints. For example, I didn’t use any blocks besides 1x1 and didn’t even have to use the web for movement - jumping is just enough to complete the level when you place the blocks strategically (and by that I mean 2 up, 1 or 2 to the side in a staircase pattern). Perhaps having some blocks that can’t be walked on but can be attached to using the web could help with that, as well as some permanent walls or classic spikes.
There were some, uh, bugs when you place two blocks close to each other (I was attaching to the wrong block), but overall I think the character controller is quite nice and fluid.
I liked the idea of having multiple build zones so that you can’t simply disassemble the level behind you.
Overall, I see that it was quite a lot of work to implement everything, so great job!
A great game but only one thing, why spiders xD
I wish it wasn't spiders 😄
This game is so awesome! Cute art, interesting idea, really fun to play! Great job!
I love everything about this game, really interesting and fun concept, the polish and art are really good and i epically love the music and how it switches from gameplay and build mode.
But i never ran into the issue of running out of web so had a bit too much freedom with the building, other than that really good and polished game, good job!
