Great UI and ambience.

Submitted

Atmospheric and charming,  the color palette is nicely chosen, the game could use some obstacles,  to increase difficulty. But good beautiful  game

You could have done more. The story is good, but the gameplay is very basic you could have added falling rocks that the player needs to avoid. Stamina could be affected by wind or cold, requiring the player to eat food to regain it. This game has so much potential. Keep it up!

damn man your game has that potential, but it seems wasted (for now). only one control (Space to climb) making it boring. BUT the sound and graphics is really good, feels immersive. take my word and keep working on this , trust me!

Developer(+2)

Thank you for the feedback, really appreciate it 🙏 And yeah, I know the gameplay is pretty simple right now with just the Space button 😅. For the theme, I wanted the climbing to feel a bit more realistic and immersive, so I avoided left-right movement because it kind of ruined the climbing animation and overall feel.

But I’m definitely still working on improving the gameplay. I’m planning to add things like falling giant rocks, rope tension mechanics, and more obstacles/events to make the climb more intense and interesting.

Glad you liked the sound and graphics though, that means a lot. If you have any more suggestions or areas where you think I can improve, I’d genuinely love to hear them. Thanks again!

The games story is good but the characters in the cutscene look AI 😬 Overall nice game

Developer(+1)

Yeah 😅, I was really short on time during development, so I had to rely a bit on AI for that. But I’m still actively working on the game, and in later versions I’ll improve/replace them to make everything feel more polished and original.

Really glad you liked the story though, thank you

I love the atmosphere and the cutscene at the beginning. As a suggestion, you can add the ability to move side to side and add some hazards or possibly a time limit to force people not to rest too much. Great start!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! Really glad you liked the atmosphere and the opening cutscene

And yeah, those are actually some really good suggestions. I’ve been thinking about adding hazards like falling rocks, rope tension, and other obstacles to make the climb more intense. A time-pressure mechanic also sounds interesting honestly.

About the side-to-side movement, I did try it before, but it kind of ruined the climbing animation/style I was going for 😅. I wanted the movement to feel more grounded and immersive rather than arcade-like. But I’m still experimenting and trying to make the gameplay more engaging in future updates.

Really appreciate the feedback, thank you!

Buen juego, pero puedes agregar mas controles y obstaculos para que sea mas desafiante.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for the feedback Due to time constraints for this version I wasn't able to add more complex features However I completely agree with your suggestions and plan to add more controls and obstacles in a future update to make the game much more engaging.
