The levels were fun too, some tougher than others but all of them felt fair. My biggest issue was with the camera, I wish it would show the whole level at all times and I wish there was a full screen mode. But honestly those were very minor issues that barely affected my experience. I would have been nice to have some sort of clear visual when you were able to grapple hook and when you couldnt but again, a minor thing that didn't effect my enjoyment. Awesome work.\n\nI got caught up in a conversation so my time is a bit messed up\n\n![Capture.PNG](\/\/\/raw\/915\/d\/z\/40e71.png) ","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":690730,"author_name":"OcO","author_uid":"oco","epoch":1620068554,"text":"Such a fun game! The black and green theme was not straining to the eyes, and the simple design of monsters and kiwi were effective. I found especially satisfying the sound and little skull burst when dying, it made constant death not so painful. \n\nOne thing I found difficult is how grapple is tied to just the left key. I have to hold down left key while moving my mouse to another location, then releasing and pressing again quickly to grab. If you had 2 keys for the function, one to keep you in place the the other to confirm the next location, it might be easier to avoid falling down? \n\n\n\n\n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":699105,"author_name":"m-trigo","author_uid":"m-trigo","epoch":1620590444,"text":"There's a lot to like in this game because it's so pretty and polished, but I'll highlight what I enjoyed the most: **the title screen**\n\n- It has a volume slider\n- It puts the attributions right in the game (thank you for the idea, I'll be doing that in the future!)\n- It's awesome how it just overlays the start of the game and then moves away\n\nGreat job.
