The idea is promising, but I felt like there was a lot missing. I started playing and instantly soft-locked myself by rotating the layout and begun falling endlessly in the void, so I think adding a quick reset or something that respawns you would be good -- I just refreshed the page when this happened. As for the actual gameplay, it took a bit, but I figured out how to move around and use the rotation in combination with the rope, but I had no idea where to go (that is if there was a goal, otherwise, I think adding one would be great), some indicators would be nice. Also, I'd love for there to be some music and sound effects!

Looks like a promising premise given the controls and mechanic. Would like to see where this project is headed, great job!

The hookshot is cool, and the idea of rotating the levels combines with it nicely. But having no way to reset other than to reload the game is cumbersome.

Love the hookshot whip, feels very fluid to swing from ceilings. Unfortunately it is very easy to get stuck falling through the void

Developer

Yeah, i spent so much time on trying to get the world to turn around the start of the whip that i didn't have time to make a level that was actually decent.

The whip feels incredible. The jump is a bit sluggish in comparison and the player moves when the ship rotates. Overall I love the concept.

Developer

Yeah, I would have liked to have had the ship rotate quickly as opposed to instantly since everything being 90 degrees turned in a single frame can be kinda disorientating but the jam deadline was closing in before i figured out how to do that. definitely going to be working on this game in the future though

Developer

I finally fixed it! turns out I just need to rename the file. Definitely didn't waste the whole day re exporting different versions of the game only for the actually solution to be incredibly easy...

Developer

thanks for letting me know, it's my first time uploading anything to itch so I'm sure I screwed something up. Working on fixing it now
