Everything loops in Sloop! You swing in a loop on a lasso, you throw boomerangs in loops, and you ride looping whirlpools. Sloop is built with loops in its DNA!

love the art style and that you put in the effort to make controller support! but the games gets too hard too fast
Nice concept, even if it feels a bit hard to control at times.
Visuals and Sounds were really polished, didn't really like the input mapping for the keyboard buttons.
Very unique concept, lovely art! Only change/suggestion I'd make is some way to control where the lasso goes would add some interesting interactivity to the game.
Fun, but hard. As I got out of the tutorial and the music changed ... well, I gave up.
cool game! Nice pixel art! A bit difficult to play on the keyboard to my humble opition.
congratulations!The game is really fun, beautiful art :)
Full marks from me. That was an absolute blast. The controls were tricky in a good way and I couldn’t help but laugh out loud as I kept smashing my ship over and over while I figured it out! The music took it to the next level. Incredible work.
really glad you enjoyed it!
Super fun and addictive! Sometimes its a bit hard to grab onto a pole because the rope goes out straight, it would be better if it automatically went to the closest pole, but of course, I'm probably just bad. Very good game, keep up the good work! :D
Very fun game! good job
Really cool idea! It reminds me of slingshot racing. I would have liked to see the lasso auto target the posts so I could focus on the other things, but still a fun experience!
Very cool game! Why do you even have a canon, It seems like running into the targets is the best option.
It feels like a grappling hook parkour course.
Was it intended, that the targets stay activated even when you crash?
We waffled on it. They really should reset but I didn't want the levels to feel too punishing for anyone struggling
Why not make the rope auto aim the closest target ? gosh I died too many times on the rocks xD But overall very fun. The title screen is high class !
The crash art style was really cool! I know because I saw it way too many times haha - good job with the game :)
Haha the crash animation was the last thing we added just before the final upload
Really great idea of a game and well done to make it work like that. Good work !
This game is gorgeous ... I mean just open your eyes ... look at it ... *chef's kiss*
thank you!!
this is intersting to play
glad to hear it!
really interesting concept, art is great and was not expecting that music to kick in once the targets showed up 😎
yeah our artist and composer were on one all weekend
cool idea! controls are a bit weird and it quite laggy on my laptop, but I enjoyed overall
I’d check if hardware acceleration is on in your browser. We found if it isn’t, the game runs kinda slow because of the dynamic water shader. Could fix the lag for you
Controls are a little bit hard to use on keyboard, but I can tell a lot of care went into them, and after a little bit they dont feel that bad. I love the name, and this is a very fun and creative game. The art is also quite amazing.
Thanks!
I really liked the game, but it was hard to aim the rope, maybe with a little indicator could help to improve that mechanic.
Yeah that's what the little dots around the boat are mostly there for but I think I wasn't considering screen sizes for them when setting them up. Thanks for playing!
