This was such an amazing game. I really loved the art style, music, sound effects, and the movement. Basically everything.
I got to the mission where I had to get to floor 13 but couldn't find any water so I desperately ran to floor 17 before I died. I had to put the game down at that point lol. Very fun still and I plan on coming back to finish this!
I accidently ran off from the item guy when he was explaining what the grapple hook did so I never got to use it because I didn't know the controls. It would be nice if there was a screen showing your equipment and how to use it. There might already be that and I'm missing it. If so, my apologies!
Again, super awesome work and I'm excited to see where you take this or your other work!
EDIT: I just came back and actually finished the game this time! I didn't really go into detail the first time but I really love the movement in this game. I felt awesome dashing into a jump and then flipping into a double jump. I found it confusing to use the grappling hook but it was nice at times.
I got to the end and ran to the people towards left and the game slowed down and faded to black. I'm not sure what exactly that meant or if it was a bug or anything.
For the third time in this comment, GREAT game and I would love to see if you would think about expanding it.
