I think this is a pretty interesting concept for a platformer. I like the Atari 2600-esque graphics and I also like the very simple but effective level design here: it allows the unique spin of the game to truly shine. I did get stuck at one part though (The part with the moon & the sun) but overall this was neat!
Took me a while to realise I could move with WASD but then figured it out. Movement felt really nice, the shooting felt a bit too easy as there was no falloff. Mouse kept getting uncaptured from the window when rotating which stopped it from registering, might be a browser issue. I liked the sfx and end credits
I got stuck at the pink platform that goes up. The character falls off it. Great idea tho, I liked what I played.
I had the same issue with the visuals, everything was really pixelated. Entering full screen also wasn't really working for me so I had to play in a small screen, which made using the cranks pretty difficult as my mouse kept leaving the small window. I do like the concept though, and throwing out the projectile to collect and hit things is a nifty mechanic.
Great name. I had some trouble with the visuals. I think the shader you're using is maybe too intense if you're not full screen? I don't think you have to remove the effect, but maybe try to make it more clear on lower resolutions? Also once I got beyond the initial key levels, I wasn't 100% sure what to do. I would hit the little pink circle, and then the camera would fly up I think and all I could see is "press right click to cancel". Maybe a bug to fix? Cool idea though, I like the idea of using a fishing reel to shoot!
Took me way too long to realize I was supposed to move around. Maybe an in game tutorial? Had some visual issues where the game resolution kept getting worse, I think from leaving and re-entering full screen. The cranking mechanics were a bit unresponsive, for me anyways. Nice idea just needs some work.
