Amazing, just amazing. Best LD game I've played yet.
Um, whats going on here then?
Great work! The most fun LD game I've tried so far.
@kevglass: read the instructions! :)
It's quite a good entry. Too bad I got stuck at one moment in a blue rectangle, but this was a little my fault (I drove myself into it in such a way that firing hooks seemed impossible). Good game though.
really good stuff, nice mechanic and well executed. Lots of fun.
Spider-man, Spider-man...
Really liked the concept, I think the first escape could have been a bit easier/clearer to help with getting players into the game.
Had to take some shots in the dark to walls I couldn't see but that only added to the excitement.
The title at the top of the web page says LD #20 :)
Quite a fun game. Rather addictive. I also got stuck in the corner of a rectangle (and couldn't do anything anymore).
Fun concept, really liked it! The highscore submission seems to be broken... =/
19 km. Cool! A bit stressful once you get some ways in and the lava catches up. Kind of weird that you often have to fire the hooks off outside the screen into blind spots and assume that they'll hit a wall. Sound made me feel like I was talking to aliens.
Very cool mechanic! It needs some more comprehensive instructions though; once I figured out how everything worked I was having a blast playing this. While the music did its job by increasing tension, it feels like rock isn't the best choice but that's just my own personal taste. There was one bug I ran into where I got half-stuck in a blue square and was unable to shoot any hooks, aside from that great job!
