I adore the atmosphere in this game. The simple graphics with the satisfying sound effects and rain in the background made this one of the best gamejam games I've tried, even though I'm not a fan of puzzle games. I also really love the death sound effect, well done!

Nice! pretty cool little puzzle game that's visually pleasing. Feels good to play. I especially like the death sound! Good job!

Wow, this is impressive. Incredible work on the game mechanics teaching!
The soundscape is very immersive, and the graphics are simple but clean.

Great job!

Edit: made it to the end. Definitely worth it!

Nice puzzle game. Very simple art style which fits well for this kind of game. Got stuck after aquiring the grappling hook and 4 coins.

What really makes this game is the soundscape! It's incredible how they elevate such simple (but pretty!) graphics to a really immersive experience! I personally am horrible at level/puzzle design, so this might not mean too much, but I really liked the puzzles. Both their difficulty and variety felt right to me!

I feel like the only thing I can really critique is how I felt like the graphics, while aesthetically pleasing, were kind of hard to read at times, since, at a glance, they all look very similar.

But in the end I did have fun with my playthrough!

This is pretty good. The "ouch" caught me off guard (in a good way, it was funny). I really liked having to be strategic. I had fun with it

Great puzzle game, I really liked the audio. I feel like the movement of the player could be more fluid.

PS: Please send help, I'm trapped in the credit area.

@weeping-rupee Thanks for playing! For the record the coin counter is at the bottom of the screen, it looks like it was obscured by your taskbar.

Very nice game, loved the puzzle mechanics. I did find a place where I ended up stuck in an "ouch!" loop and had to start over.

Thanks for playing @nisovin, do you recall what room you were in before you were caught int he loop? I know what causes that bug and can fix it if I know what room caused it. If not no worries. Thanks again. :smile:

Really cool game! I love how many puzzles are thrown in there and how a lot of them are built upon from early mechanics but get more complex with the hookshot. The rainy aesthetic is really nice too :thumbsup:
