I really liked the concept of the game and the art has its charm. Although, the mechanics could be a bit clearer. Since the "throw" looks like the rock is just being placed down I had a hard time figuring out what to do with these. Also I might be dumb but I never figured out how to use the hook haha
I also relate to what other people said about the camera and the spikes, fixing these would improve the game feel a lot. Good job overall!
Edit: I realized later what the mouse icon stood for, I think LMB and RMB confused me in the decription rather than left click / right click. Also felt a bit unintuitive to suddenly use the mouse in a platformer like that so I guess it just never crossed my mind on the first playthrough
its looks so good the concept and mechanics r good
if u can rate my game too:)
I really liked this game! The movement was nice and I loved the art style. I feel like an improvement would be to maybe move the camera slightly to the next part of the map before you get to it. So that you can slightly see what is next. And the stalagmites falling was a cool concept but it would be even better if you could see the ceiling. So that you can see when it is there and where you need to be careful of. Also, some camera shaking would be nice for when you are hit. To show that you have been hit as it is not so obvious.. overall though, nice game!
Nice game! I love the artstyle
It is a nice game, the constant evolving of the daring crustatian brings freshness and new tools to the arsenal every couple of minutes. Most obstacles and platforming were fun and intiutive, with the exception of the stalactyte that I couldnt' really see that well against the cave's background and the part with two acid pits that changes camera position mid-jump. Another aspect of the game that I enjoyed was the art, especially the sun rays falling into the cave and the changing forms of the character.
Really nice little game, I really enjoyed playing with the hook mechanic. I was a bit confused at the end, I'm not sure if I beat the game or not, but otherwise very fun
Nice game! Liked the upgrades.
Great game! Was really fun, immediately got hooked. Could use a bit of polish, but overall a well made game!
very good hook mechanic. music is good to. but i would like to see a end message at the end and sounds for hooking jumping and other things
ya those thing went on the chopping block pretty fast will be added tho later thanks for review
The grabbing mechanic at the end is pretty fun!
But what confuses me, where is it supposed to end? Is it at the clear water at the end outside of the cave?
Running there changes the view to the inside of the cave again, even if i'm not there anymore
yes its the end which should be communicated better and that camera jank you probably fell of the map which might be an achievement in off itself cus i’ve made sure it be hard to do so thanks for playing
no no i didn't fall of the map, i was able to walk back after that
then there is a place where i should put camera spot good to know thanks
It was really fun to play, and the music was really relaxing. Great job.
thanks
