Amazingly polished! The responsiveness makes every move so satisfying

Developer

Glad to see that you find it polished because we took a lot of time to polish it. Thank you a lot for playing and reviewing !

I enjoyed your game. Moving feels great with the sound and animations. Also the tutorial was very good. I did find my self getting tripped up by the delay on movements. Perhaps if you had some visual/audio indicator for when you are allowed to move again it would help a lot. Also some reward or  visual change from getting a good run in would be cool. Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and giving your feedback ! In futures updates we will surely add your suggestions 🙃

I'm glad you liked them!

Wow this looks and feels so polished! I managed to get a score of 272. I was kind of hoping there was a way to get to the top of mountain. Maybe I'm just not good enough 

Developer(+2)

Thanks we took a lot of time to polish it ! And no there is no end to the game it's infinite. My personal best is around 300 so 272 is very good.

I thought it would be a chill game 😂 I was sweating, then it turned out to be just a tutorial. I enjoyed playing, and the more difficult the game became, the more fun it was. Well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and reviewing ! Glad to see that you had fun as the game was getting more difficult.

This is a really fun game! The sound design was incredibly satisfying!

Developer

Thanks we chose the sfx carefuly and our sound designer made a banger of soundtrack. So we will tell him !

Really nice game. It feels super responsive and polish! Good job

Developer

Thanks for your feedback !  We took a big part of the time to polish it. Glad you enjoyed it.

Nice idea and good execution. A neat little game. It was unfair the cannons could shoot through walls ;)

Developer

Thanks for your review and for playing. Maybe in futures updates we will fix that.

Quite fun! This was like a spiritual sister to celeste. The art was very cute, but what I really loved was the map itself, the challenges have been balanced so well to give challenge but seem fair

Developer

A very big thank to you for playing and reviewing. I will tell that to the artists in the team.

Submitted(+2)

Easily one of the most enjoyable games I have played so far this jam! The loop is satisfying and the art is amazing. Initially I was drawn to collect all move-bonuses, but later realized they often cost more moves than their reward. 


I would have prefered if the gaps were not instant losses. It is a bit unsatisfying being on a very good run with 80 moves left and then instantly get a game over (exacerbated with lag on itch.io). I also encountered a bug where I was unable to move and just had to wait until the cannons had their say with me

Developer(+1)

Big thanks for playing and reviewing ! We will certainly replace the hole with something that retire moves like birds. Thanks again for your suggestion and for your bug report.

Submitted(+1)

Wow. This is a really polished game! The aesthetics are great and it was super easy to understand. One thing I'd change is to add a visual hint of the grid so it's easier to plan where you want to walk.

Developer(+1)

Thanks we took time to polish it. We will reconsiderate this idea in futures updates.

It took me a minute to understand I was climbing XD. A very cute game, I really like the UI, the art is beatiful and it has very nice feedback when pressing something or moving around. The game itself is simple yet challenging I like the little "traps" of movements where you spend more taking them than what they give you. I think I found a bug where I crossed to a new section that had a wall immediately above and the game didn't let me move sideways. I was gonna take a screenshot but the cannos from the previous screen destroyed in seconds XD. In general, a fun little game

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for playing and reviewing ! We know the existence of a lot of bugs, counting this one. We will fix them in futures updates. Thanks again for reporting.

Submitted(+1)

New high score! or at least i think so, I really enjoyed it, I like how sections with birds were precise timing challenges, and the canons causing a frantic rush to the end of the screen, which gave the game a nice variety.

I had one bug on the rope where i disappeared and rapidly lost moves (thankfully not on a good run) and as others have mentioned its hard to tell when you're at the gap. Also some of the rooms later on would just immediately get me hit, due to canons firing so quickly at that point :0


Developer(+1)

I calculated, in the run of your run the game was running a 3x speed. I don't even know how it's possible to survive at this point, just congrats. Sorry to hear that you encountered bugs. And yeah we will fix the gap in next updates. Thanks for playing and reviewing 

Developer(+2)

You got a better score than us developers do with god mode enabled (infinite actions) X)

Submitted(+2)

I didn't have high expectations for a tile-based climbing game, but the countdown added a sense of tension that made it fun to play. Good!

Developer

Glad to hear that the game was over your expectations, thanks for playing and reviewing !

Submitted(+1)

Super fun game! I enjoy how it felt somewhat fast-paced while still involving a lot of thought behind your movements. The art and sound design is really nice, and I like how the mountain is different every time with room order. Will definitely come back to try and get as far as possible !

Developer

Thanks for your review, glad to see that you found the game super fun ! We have planned to release future updates, so it's will be a pleasure to work on it again.

Submitted(+2)

Really fun and polished game! I loved the fast-paced gameplay and how every move makes you think carefully about your next step. The countdown mechanic fits the theme really well, and the game gets more challenging as you progress. Great job!

Pretty nice game with fun mechanic and executed quite well. I think I got to around 97 score but died quite bit since I mis-jumped into the ice a lot :P.

Developer(+1)

Glad to see that you loved the mechanics ! The holes are one of the most dangerous trap. Thanks for playing and reviewing !

Submitted(+2)

Very fun and creative! Art is really nice and the atmosphere is really calming. Its even a bit fast paced and has a challenge which is nice!

the game makes you think but the way it is designed makes it a very enjoyable experience

Developer(+1)

Thanks for you simple but strong review. Hope you enjoyed playing the game !

Submitted(+1)

Very nice game mechanics that just keeps on getting harder! The art  is very cute, the only thing I was getting confused about was at the start to cross the water I always felt like I could step ahead one more time, and was dying :D but very nice submission! 

Developer(+1)

The holes in the game are a bit hard to tell if there one more step ahead, like you said in your review. Thanks for your review and glad that you liked the mechanics !
