I really liker playing this game, such simple mechanics but so well designed!
I loved the feeling of the movement, the hook, the water direction mechanic is so fun to play around.
Music and sound FX very well designed and composed too!
Nothing to say, very good job to you all!
This is probably the most polished game I've played in the jam so far.
The visuals are really well done, and the music fits the game perfectly while still having a nice amount of variety.
The hook mechanic is great, and the feedback when you use it to anchor yourself to the environment feels incredibly satisfying. The different surfaces and ways you can use the hook feel varied but still intuitive, and the level design is really well thought out too. I especially appreciated how it avoids making you repeat long sections every time you fail.
I also loved the idea of leaving your previous bodies behind after you die.
It took me a little while to realise I could also hook onto the brambles, but other than that everything felt very readable.
Really impressive work!
The hook and current mechanics are super clever, and the soundtrack is so chill. Lovely game
Incredibly impressive game. Really solid base mechanics, wonderful music and great vibe. My one gripe is I think the pixel style was a bit lacking in visual clarity? Sometimes it made it a little hard to parse exactly what was where which is important when there are these quite tight segments where being a pixel off can cause you to die. I could absolutely see this being refined and expanded into a full game release if you wanted.
I would hate for my clan to be glitterless :(
The vibes here are immaculate. Love the art and the music. Love that it's a little slow paced and peaceful (except for all my corpses floating around). The current was sometimes hard to see against certain backgrounds, and I wish there were more ways to use the hook. This is a big and very complete game. Great job!
Thought that if I didn't get the coins in the endings screen I would miss something haha.
Really solid title, a bit too long but I persevered ;)
I love the everything about this game from the art down to the gameplay. The font on the doors for the gold coins to advance to the next area was the only thing that bothered me. The game was very direct and felt natural when playing and progression wasn't ever hindered by bugs or poor gameplay mechanics. Very solid game!! I gave it all 5 stars with a 4 star on the graphics for the font; but that is only a small gripe and really deserves to be a five as well!
The current and the hook are very clever gameplay mechanics, although I was stuck for a while not realising you could also hook onto the spiky plants. The vibes are immaculate and the font unreadable :P Lovely game! Keep it up.
Great looking game. Soundtrack was very calming. But somehow the music cut midway through. Some puzzles were a bit long but nothing too challenging. Overall a very good entry.

Love the art in the intro to the game. The fonts are a bit awkward to read, aswell as knowing how many coins are left, as I found the number on the doors a little difficult to read. I also found it a bit tricky to tell the difference between the wall and the background in some parts but I managed. Well done!
This game is absolutely beautiful. I love the art work all over, you did an amazing job with only 4 colors. For sure a game to look at to learn a little bit from in terms of an art direction. I got frustrated at the 3rd level, but probably is just a skill issue as it takes more time to be patient with the streams and I am not patient lol. The only other thing is I think the font is a little hard to read at times and I wish it was more clear how many coins you needed on the doors because of it. Animations are great, movement feels like you're actually swimming and underwater, overall amazing work!
The vibes from the art and the music were spot on! I loved figuring out what the hook did without the game telling me. It was a very satisfying ah-ha moment for me. Great job!
