I am super impressed. There is a lot here playability here. Great work!

The art superb and the concept felt unique and intriguing! I love the physics based motion to it, I wish I was better at playing so I could see more of the game haha. Great work!

Submitted(+2)

I really enjoyed this! I wish I could have played more/gotten further but it was a bit too difficult. I think mainly because I bumped my head on a lot of overhead ceilings. Cool if you're going for a jump king kind of game!

Good Submission. I struggled with the player movement mechanic, but I think I was bad at playing your game.

I did like the art animation and the overall atmosphere of the game.

Submitted(+2)

Very much like the art, and the game play is a good amount of challenging. Didn't make it very far so I don't know what comes later in the game though haha

cool game with nice aesthetics and animation. honestly I found it quite difficult. I would love to see the trajectory of the hook so I know where it will land! sign me up for a future release please!

Very cool game! The mechanic is very creative and the visual looks awesome! I personally feel it's maybe a bit too hard now but a bit of tweaking and this will be an excellent game for sure! Great jobs :D

Very nice graphics, smooth gameplay, excellent loading animation. I found it very difficult to climb the hill; perhaps the game could start a bit easier. Congratulations

The art style and mood is great. Interesting puzzle like game

Really great art and aesthetic, but like @angelalb I wish there was an intro level to get me used to the hook/reel mechanic - I was struggling to get up the first level.

Always nice to see Manta Rays in a game too :-D

very polished game!

The mechanic is super neat and the art is just stunning an amazing entry!

Great mechanic, although I wish there was a gentler introduction to it so people who are awful at platformers like me got a chance to play around with it a little more. 

Loved the music too!

Developer

Thank you so much! We've had that feedback a lot and will definitely take it into consideration if we continue this project! :)

The ambiance is great, cute and nice music
Very clever mechanic (even if i was quite lame at it), i see the potential of platforming without walking!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! It was my first time doing music for a game so I'm really relieved people like it :)

First time? well, it was great!

Very cool, the casting animation is gorgeous. Love the concept too. I'm willing to admit this is a skill issue, but I found myself getting stuck on the very first area, but I do think this concept and art style has a lot of legs.

Developer

Thank you so much!! The game is indeed difficult (I struggle to beat it myself)... The average playtime is 30-45 minutes but our playtester managed to speedrun it in 1 minute 11 seconds after some practice!

I love this one! Reminds me a lot like jump king, I think this have a potential be a really great successful game . You should make this a full game when the jam is finished.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much!  Jump King was our main inspiration... we wanted to make it equally challenging! :)

Submitted(+2)

Wow! This game is really cool! The mechanic of using the fishing rod to get a place is very satisfying! The art style of the game feels good too! One thing I would add would be some audio though. Great Job on the game! :) 

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! There is audio (and music!)... I hope you can get it to work :)

Developer
