Can you reach the top of the tower...if it really exists
How does your game tie into the theme?
You stand before a tall tower and you are compelled to climb. Can you reach the top before you go mad?

unique concept and well executed too, i really enjoyed this entry. art and music were great. climbing the ladders was a bit tricky, and i had some trouble figuring the portals out as most of the time they ended up regressing my progress. overall a great game. thank you and well done!
Got stuck at 2m BSL.
It really got me mad.
Nice soundtrack
Nice game:) I would, however, suggest choosing different keys for teleport/chest opening as they are hard to reach while controlling the character with arrow keys.
Cool game. Very easy to figure out what I'm supposed to do.
The only thing that really bothered me were the ladders - primarily the fact that grabbing a ladder does not negate horizontal velocity, so jumping on a ladder from the side is a horrible experience, as if the ladder is slippery and I keep slipping off to the side :S
But the ability to place ladders in random places is cool.
I didn't really get that it's an infinite tower from the description, but I guess that's probably on me.
Got a funny high-score though.
Really cool take on an infinite climber game. I got to about 370m.
I would suggest the following changes: Portals can only be used once, and are deterministic instead of random. I found myself just spamming teleport if I got a bad one.
Make everything interactable with 'E', and have the items usable by pressing numbered hotkeys. Making this full screen instead of mobile would open you up to more options in terms of travel paths ect.
very valid points, thank you :)
Loved the mysterious vibe and the question of whether the tower even exists! The sense of madness as you climb adds a great twist to the challenge. I made it to about 560m.
After reaching 2500m without reading the disclaimer I started to understand the title of this game. You got me, great job!
:D it worked!
Its a little tough to control but I like what you've gone for!
Cool game mechanic! Couldn't reach the top though 😅
