Instead of measuring time, measure length of hair?

Nice take on the competition themes! I like the graphic style and tunes.

I made it 55 seconds on my top run. Nice job! I used Unity too!

This is a cool game! I love the artwork, it's straight from a children's book of fairy tales. The rappel / grow mechanic also works pretty well once you get the hang of it. Haha, get it? Hang!

Some way to play again once you've gone Game Over would have been a nice addition, because I found myself wanting to play again for a while :)

Is it possible to reach the bottom by the way?

I love how I recognized that those things were bees...

Tijn: Thanks for playing! You should be able to just press A or D to restart the game after a game over. If that's not working, then there's a bug and I'll have to look into it.

And it is possible to reach the bottom, just fairly difficult.


batmanasb: I love how you can tell which placeholder art I didn't get around to replacing. Bees were pretty low on the list.

What an insidious game. At first, I thought I sucked at the control, but then gradually it got more and more addictive, and I ended up spending an hour for this entry. The best gameplay mechanics I've seen so far.

Original idea with the current theme's. The variety in obstacles kept it fresh. Only thing I would suggest with a soundloop this short is a mute button.

Protip was very useful, but did not make me a pro. xD I like MaulUdder's suggestion about measuring hair length... or better yet, giving some indicator of how close to the ground you are, if it isn't endless. It seems not endless, since I can memorize where things happen.
