  • this is a STRONG contender! i really genuinely enjoyed my time playing hosehead, i even went for some of the challenge levels, despite having 1400 submissions to view, absolutely stellar, you should absolutely expand this concept, and make this a full release, id pay money for it! a couple upgrades or new mechanics to expand it once we get used to it, different environments and bosses. for real, you've got gold here.
  • Immediately nails the theme and style, with it being both relevant to the level design, world design and gameplay mechanics. Continues to develop the mechanics and difficulty with minimal instruction right up to the "end" which then unlocks genuinely challenging levels and a speedrun mode. Top shelf.

That was some good minutes spent. Simple art, simple technique and simple level. It is great, the animation and movement are smooth. You should definitely try to release it on mobile or console. I am sure a lot of people would like it.

This was a very fun game, but I attempted level 21 and couldn't even get past the initial wire, whoa super hard.

  • Player looks super cute
  • Like the simplistic mechanics of using the water to also push the player up
  • Really disliked not being able to use wasd in the air from the water hose pushing me up
