If I had a nickel for every time I played a good game that had great pixel art and grappling as a central mechanic, I'd have 3 nickels.

Open-ended and snappy level design, smooth controls, well distributed variety, I'm excited to finish it.

fantastic demo! only experienced two bugs ;) one where i died immediately after respawning in a the room with 3 mushrooms and the cash above them, and another i was moved left by nothing when i moved a block for a puzzle. that bug only happened in one room, and only on the last movement for the puzzle (room pictured).


cant wait for the full game :)

Ahh crap, I'll patch this asap. Thanks for letting me know.

Hey I don't know if that's of any use to you since it's just a demo but I mashed my keyboard at some point just to be sure I had all the controls and I glitched the character. Basically he became invisible (but the light shader stayed) and I could fly and go through walls as I pleased. It was very easy to reproduce mashing the right part of the keyboard (ghjklm in particular).
Hyped to see the full game !

lol you probably hit the g key, i forgot to get rid of it it's the debug state, thank you for bringing it to my attention

Super fun demo, awesome work! Got a sub 6-minute run today but didn't record it lol hoping to improve before the end of the contest

Looks good! (It has changed a lot since the first 3D version I knew 😛)

Congratulations and good luck for the future!

Hey thanks man!
