Global warming has arrived and water levels are at an all time high. Habitable land is slowly decreasing and the only option we have left is going up!

good game but there is too much motion blur

I got to about half of the tree, not biggest fan of jumping puzzles. Gorgeous looking game though and apart from the immediate drowning danger it would be quite relaxing.

Really good art style, but I don't understand how to play this game. I just drowned.

The motion blur was rough, but i loved the art style and the simplicity. Nicely done.

The game looks gorgeous, but i am so bad at Jump and Runs, that i got teh first 3 branches and then dropped every time. But for me teh time period before the water starts rising felt like a little bit to short.

I like the art style. The game is really tough though I feel like it can benefit from a slight bit of air control so make correction for over jumping do-able. I think the sound of the wind and the piano music also makes a great addition.

The art is awesome I really like it, not sold on a jumping puzzle though, but great entry none the less :D

Absolutely loved the art, the game was a bit small though. It wouldve been great to have multiple paths. I thought the way it worked with the theme was clever

The style is very very preaty even if minimal, but the jump on trees are no so goo. ofter your jump is blocked from the upper branch or the tree push you away

I'm terrible at jumping puzzles, so didn't make it past the tree, but it looks and sounds good and was fun up through getting frustrated

I really like the graphics on this one. The low poly flat palette looks good. Jumping was pretty clunky. I couldn't even make it up the tree!

Did you want to make a 3d version of Getting Over It? Because you did, haha. Infurating, but addicting. Amazing job, no idea how you did it in 48 hours.

Nice take on the theme, I dig it. Looks great too.

I quite like parcour games, and combined with the clean low poly looks of the game, I quite liked it.

There is something that I myself would like to see changed/added/considered:

- adding (more frequent) checkpoints. Climbing up the tree is rough, and checkpoints would definately help! (if there are checkpoints beyond the tree, my bad :P)

Overall a great game :D

Well this was pretty good! The art style was really nice and the music was very simplistic. It also helped to stay calm when I fell off the tree for the 50th time ^^

Pros:
- REALLY COOL art style! Low-poly is the best!
- The water is simply beautiful.
- Mouse looking movement is smooth and easy to use.
- Music is calm and chill!

Cons:
- Jumping is floaty. (You should be able to influence the jump a little while in the air. imo)
- Tree branches are hard to navigate.

Man do I love the graphics and animations in this game! The jumping part was quite tricky, and it got quite stressful towards the end!!

Perfect usage of the theme. Music was a bit redundant. The water, props and player were just so awesome.

One of the best entries out there!

I'm not really a fun of 3D platformers but I can see people loving this game, it is a well made game. The graphics and music are really charming and it at least looks pretty polished. Great job.

Nice low-poly graphics, Climbing the tree was too hard for me but overall great work!

The jumping and air control need a bit of work. I feel like it is very hard to even get half way up the tree. Fun idea.

I love the graphics! It's a frustrating and fun game and looks well done. What I lacked, I think, is a system that rewards you somehow. Like points saying how well you done or just a screen with "good job ou took yourself a bit upwards". It is a bit hard for me too though. I could barely make it past branch 3 before giving up (that took a few attempts). It was fun and pretty though so good job! :)

Hoping the collider could be more precise, but overall a quite challenging game. Gave up near the top of the tree though :sweat_smile:

I think the game need a checkpoint. And when you die, something like "you climb x meters in x time" could be cool.

The low poly is pretty cool, but I find that the skybox don't match with the style. Nice work! It was really fun.

The game is quite cool but way too complicated. I think it lacks of consistence I mean every jump is different and you never know exactly where you should land. Still fun though

The graphics and audio in your game are great, especially considering you made them all by yourself. But as other players, I think the jumping is tricky and I can only reach a few branches. I don't know if there's anything more exciting in the higher area and I think you can record a video to show the whole game process (if you can reach the top by yourself). Or maybe you can make the first stage - climbing tree - easier by increasing the size or density of branches so that poor jumpers like me would not get stuck at the very beginning. However in general it's still a well-put-together game. Good job!

They jumping physics are a bit tricky, the visuals are great and the music is surprisingly calm for the situation, almost makes it feel like the dude has already accepted his fate)
