The grapple hook was janky, but fun to use after I understood how it worked. My only suggestion would be to add something to indicate the "death plane". I died to it multiple times on the final level when trying to use the grappling hook. Fun game :thumbsup:

holy heck that is one strong grappling hook.
This was nice and short - good use of the theme and levels escalating in difficulty.
Very nice!

This handles pretty poorly, which is quite important for a platformer. Disregarding that, though, it was goofy and funny.

As janky as the grappling hook was, it was still very fun to use. Was sad when the game ended so soon

Hey this was fun! Great submission, a little jank but then again it was an ambitious game idea so jank is expected!

Nice game! It's fun to play.
But it breaks a little when using the grappling hook thing, and the controls are a bit off.
Apart from that, it's nice!

P.S. It reminds me a little of Karlson by Dani

Very silly and whimsical. Hard to control but a neat idea!

After waiting a little longer on the losing screen, I couldn't play any further. ![ezgif.com-gif-maker (4).gif](///raw/098/d1/z/48382.gif)

yea @ivanpavlov that's a glitch I'm working on, I can't seem to get it fixed, and I definitely couldn't get it fixed during the jam. Sorry about that :(
