Ludum Dare #37compo
Try, Get fried, Repeat
Try, Get fried, Repeat is a fast-paced speedrunning game situated in a bedroom. The room is getting filled with lava, and the only way to save yourself is by getting to the top of the room. Unfortunately your only form of movement is your hook. With its help you can jump up the furniture and survive the lavapocalypse(Or is it magma when it is inside a room?). The game is really hard - sorry - but it is winnable and that by multiple routes. Enjoy the trying!
Controls: Use mouse to look around, left click to shoot a hook, right click to release.
Tips for lazy people:
You can hook to another object in-air, but until you touch the ground, gravity force will keep accumulating until it exceeds the hook's one.
By deactivating the hook mid-flight you can slide, which can be helpful, but also deadly.
Regarding some physics concerns: yes it is not flawless, rarely collisions don't register right and because of the voxel graphics movement can be complicated. Important to note is that if you hook from mid-air, it won't pull you up, until you return to the ground, the gravity force will keep increasing.

My best score : 31.37 s, not that a good score I imagine. ><
I was always trying to press WASD to get at least a bit closer :) That's definitely a "+" for innovation, good job!
