Cool game! I found level 3 to be much harder than any of the others, kind of frustrating. Level 5 was the most fun.

Hard but great game :D I love the graphics

An interesting and pretty well made game. Love the music and the art style. The controls is simple and good. Overall a pretty good combo game. Well done.

This is great! I love how the first level is used twice, but plays entirely different each time. And that last level?? What a rush!

Woah, that last level was quite a challenge, only using a trackpad :sweat_smile: Nice little game though, with awesome aesthetics! Love how you implemented the idea, using almost only handdrawn graphics, and with the difficulty progression across levels. Awesome job!

good game, there would be more levels.

It was a really cool game! Level 3 was difficult to beat, the first time I forgot the right button to dash and the other times I could not get passed the three enemies. But all in all, a very nice to play and I love the artwork^^

Quirky, original and a lot of fun. Nice way of using the theme. Good Job!

Quirky and inovative, the game is fun and well made, the art is the cherry on top, 10/10!

I've frequently thought about making a game with graphics like this. Nicely done!

EbbDrop9 Oct 2019, 12:40

Very good art. The controles where a bit frustrating do.

Cool, hard, but in a good way

@ebbdrop Thanks for the feedback. I agree with you completely, I wanted to remap the controls so that laser and grapple were mouse buttons and dash was space, but unfortunately I didn't get round to it.

The art is actually really nice, and the narration/gameplay is great, good job!

Really great game, was fun to discover mechanisms over time

Simun18213 Oct 2019, 18:37

Controls were bit off, it would be cool if there were more levels. But overall fun and nice looking game.

Fun game overall. I got stuck a bit before I realized how far the range of your weapon is. There was something nice about replaying the first level without powers. The grapple solutions weren't what I thought initially, but it was fun to figure out.

Cute art, great take on the theme, nice little audio and super cool mechanics. Incredible job!

It was a lot of fun. It's a new level of continuity. The method of solving at each level was new. It was amazing that the character's ability was new. The graphics are very nice. I drew a picture on a piece of paper.
