Very cool puzzle concept
Moving the rope around and tying it up is very satisfying, and impressive on a technical level.
You also kept introducing new twists without changing up the mechancis, which is really impressive puzzle design too!
I kind of wish there was a skip puzzle button as I got stuck on the one with 2 boxes and a platform next to a cliff and I would have loved to see your other levels (though admitedly I also forgot to add the feature to our jam this time)
The skip button is definitely a very useful feature, especially in the context of jam games.
Thank you for playing and rating, and good luck with your game!
that is so cool! one of my fav games here. If there were more sound effects - would be 5/5. Also I can see a place for developing it with the more levels and enviro animation. Love the children-books inspired artstyle.
Of course! You're right, we would also like to see more “flavors” in the game. Every comment like this gives us direction for future development!
I have absolutelly no clue how you figured out these rope mechanics, they are absurdly good and make for an incredibly fun puzzle game. Rope tension isn't a new mechanic to these kind of games, but specifically looping ropes around anchors and using max length and gravity to tense them, is kind of insane and masterfully utilizing an insane mechanic for some really cool puzzles. I'm sure there's more that could be done with this kind of tech, but at this point the sky is literally the limit and the jam gives us no time for rocket ships. So absolutelly well done with what you got here.
Thank you very much, I am also happy with how it turned out and would like to use this mechanism again in the future so that I have a chance to refine everything.
I was actually blown away by the rope physics, it wasnt too challanging but sure was fun : )
I can tell you that the programmer hasn't been this happy in a long time haha thanks
This was one of the more inventive puzzle ones I've seen so far, I enjoyed the art too
Thank You! appreciate
This is probably the most creative game I've seen in this jam so far! It's so good! The art is amazing, and it's such an interesting take on the theme. I would have loved to have some more sound effects for completing levels, or when rope connects etc, just to make it come alive more. But wow, honestly great game :)
thank you so much! It's very nice to hear that someone played and shared their opinion, it's very encouraging. Good luck with your game I hope it will get great great result at the end 😄
So cool game! The graphics are great, the music and mechanics are awesome, very enjoyable!
Thank u!
Greate game! Really fun with this little monster!
this is very nice thank you!
A good game with some nice puzzles. The rope mechanic is really good and I like the art style. Good job!
Thanks for your review and your time!
Nice name, lol. The visuals are so good!
If you have a moment, we'd love for you to check out our team's project too. It's called "round-and-wound" , hope you enjoy it! --> /jam/gmtk-2025/rate/3780863
I checked out the really interesting mechanics you have implemented, Thank you for the rating!
Super sleek game! Amazing menus, great art and solid puzzles which give just enough of a head scratch. Like another commenter mentioned, would be great to have some more SFX and a longer/more varied music track to compliment the game length. Overall super fun and polished experience!
Yess SFX would help this game hahah thank You for playing!
wow this game is so special i really like the desgin and the artwork so pretty
love the puzzles and i really enjoyed myself
if you would like to try out my brother's game its here :) https://zyhu.itch.io/pool-loop
Thank You! Already played your brother game
Amazing game! I liked everything about it. Beautiful art, clever puzzle mechanics and design. The music fits very well too. It's a shame that it didn't have sound effects. Still, well done!
You abslutlu right we forgot abot them until it was to late hahaha Thanks for playing!
Pretty interesting puzzle game... I got stuck on the level (3rd or 4th???) where there are 3 big nodes, 2 down and 1 up... It played pretty well until that point.
hey I have shared the solutions to each level on YT if you feel like it I will leave a link here
Ok, I've finished the game with this walkthrough, thanks!
One thing I'll say: the right-most opening in the last level, the one where you fall down on the lever after pushing the 2nd box, is obsturcted by the foreground tree. It got me stumped at the end.
Also on the windows build, the sides of the play area does get cut... I recall seeing a half-star in the second to last level (which also confused me, I didn't saw the star at the beginning, and attempted to move from left to right...)
Other than those, Ii was a neat little game to play! Tying up things felt quite satisfying to do. I'd wish we could use the rope more in the game time - apart from using it as a bridge: Maybe we could grab the end point, drag it, and carry it to another endpoint, while pulling connected things along?
Anyways, cheers!
thank you for your time and feedback I always look forward to hearing what others think of our work!
very cool! the string system worked really well, it was very full featured. the music got pretty repetitive and wasn't looped but that's really the only critique i have. well done!
Thanks a lot for playing and the feedback which is always helpful!
This was amazing, I had so much fun playing this! The artwork looks beautiful <3
I'm glad to hear it 😃
