Arachnophobia, every fifth man and even every third woman has it. This game is the best therapy against it and we bet you'll actually start to like this strange species after playing this kick-ass fun game. Forget Spiderman, Super Spider is the new hero in town.
Swing around, eat insects, escape the lava – are there any more questions?
Manual:
---------
Gameplay:
---------
- Escape from the lava and score high (DevHighScore is 16073 (Philipp) ;P)
- Catch and eat flies to get more web and regenerate health (You have higher chance to catch flies if your
net is big and interconnected)
- Get away from the bees!
Controls:
---------
- Press Left Mouse Button to to begin a thread. Press Left Mouse Button again to finish a thread.
Build a web by connecting threads.
- Navigate your web by using WASD and the mouse.
The highlighted thread is the one you walk on; walk on the thread by using WASD; on an intersection,
turn the spider with your mouse to another thread to make it your current thread.
- Jump with Space
The longer you hold Space before releasing, the further you will jump. You jump in the direction of the cursor.
- Spam E to eat captured flies to fill your webpower (or to attack bees)
This was really fun, definitely has a great art style that would have made it perfect for GBJam, but really goes with the "Growing" theme here. Controls were a bit confusing at first (I assumed you had to click where you wanted the web to go, not click to start, then move, then click to finish a web).
The gameplay is interesting, but it took me a while to grasp. Ultimately I'd just jump around, reaching the highest possible point, then take a leap hoping not to fall in the lava, have some grub then repeat.
Loved the art style and the overall mood it contributed to generate, along with the music that fits nicely.
Well done!

Great Game! The mechanics are innovative and the graphics are pretty nice. You've created an very addictive game! Keep it going! Greetz from Melbourne (Australia) P.S. The bees rekt me so many times - i never hated an enemytype like this before.
That was a super fun game! It took awhile to get used to the controls, but I really really loved the way you could build your own webs. It was important too to make sure that you had enough to jump around on when the bees came. Very clever, and dang those dubstep bees! Haha
the graphics look good, but I was really confused about the gameplay. eventually I got the jump+web mechanic. still it's unclear wether you will jump with or without a web string. and why not just always a string? (if you got it).
Really kicking soundtrack as well! :)
