Loved the game and the graphics ! Really good job ! Maybe add a bit more enemies...
Thank you! Yeah i have a whole behavior system worked out for ones that climb on the hairs but couldn't implement it in time, I look forward to being able to update it when the jam is over!
Interesting idea! Liked the hand drawn art, and particulary enjoyed zipping around the level using the grapple. I'd love to see the non-grapple movement feeling a bit swifter, and a way to track down the remaining bugs would be rad - I did manage to get to the end and exterminate the big bug though! Well done
I completely agree! I plan to add a few more unlockable movement abilities and rework the levels, right now there is a jet pack ability but it takes too long to unlock. Also completely overlooked a save system to save your abilities when you get to the big bug. Thanks for playing!
I'm a spiderlice (hunter)!! Once I was able to grapple stuff I was just swinging through this dude's head like nobody's business. I don't think I even killed that many lice, but the grappling was just too much fun to platform around the level :D
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I cant wait to polish it up a bit more and make the level a bit more coherent.
Loved the Hand Drawn graphics! my potato pc could barely run the game but it was pretty anyways 😂
Keep making cool stuff :)
Oh no! I would love to know what your hardware is, this is the first time ive made something intended for other people to play so I think i have alot to learn about performance haha
8Gb or ram, a 1050 with 2gb of vram (Not the TI), and a ryzen 5 1600
If you did it in unreal I don't think my pc has ever run an unreal game very well xd
Okay good to know, I recently upgraded my pc so i felt like this might have been a problem, I think unreal tends to be very visually intensive but in the future I think i can make it more performant! Thank you!
Love the idea, and the unique visuals!
Thank you!
Such a unique art style and idea, I loved the grapple and visuals, great work!
Thank you! Looking forward to fleshing it out more after the jam.
I downloaded the file, but it is not a zip file, so I couldn't play your game.
That is definitely an oversight, you need to use 7zip, Win Zip, or Win Rar to open it, most archive tools should be able to open it. Thanks for letting me know though, I didn't even think of it.
I'll give it another shot.
Thanks! I hope it works out.
