I really enjoyed this game. At first, I was really unsure of what I was supposed to do xD I got up to 170 before failing. Good job!

Nice idea, and crazy music :)

Not bad, but it seemed more like just an endurance challenge than anything. Also, I would have made the sounds flow better, instead of cutting off the way they do.

Control matches content. Nice tension and pacing. Great concept!

Nice game :) I got pretty far. It's tense when you have a monster blocking your path and another coming up the ladder after you. The music adds a lot to it.

Looked a bit dull at first, but I found it really fun to play. Super easy to get your head around and just enough challenge to keep going :)

that is one hell of a scary demon hamster

I got to 420 and 7 escapes before giving up, a nice addicting game. With some fluff and power-ups, it would fit in perfectly in an app store :D

Great game, but now my fingers hurt a lot ;)

There is no restart button after you die :D

Fun game!

Not sure I call the game over sounds easy to listen to music but that was an interesting game. I liked the smooth climbing animation. Not sure how to get pass the red door with the monster though.

ranmaru90 2015-12-18 02:30

Thanks for playing my game everybody! @Starspell actually you're suppose to stop and wait for the monster to disappear before continuing the climb (while hoping that there's nobody chasing you from behind). :D

akirassasin 2015-12-18 02:33

Nice concept, but how to escape the monster in front?

ranmaru90 2015-12-18 02:35

@AkirAssasin you can't. You have to stop and wait for it to be gone. :)

Audio was trippy and not in a good way. Great idea for a game though.

yword 2015-12-20 05:31

Really fun and great idea! Well done!

ramoncb 2015-12-20 05:40

I reached to 500... with only one escape! xD

It's really an endurance challenge, maybe in the future would be cool to have power ups, jumps from ladders, etc. ;-)

Good job!

Alluring & addictive qualities - you are somewhat of a magician for making it in less than 1/2 a day ;)

chuigum 2016-01-02 09:45

I really liked the concept, pretty smart. Could definitely see this continued!

cluster-parable 2016-01-02 15:58

Quite easy, but I have to say that I love the Game Over song. :D

bob_fish 2016-01-03 13:06

Decent work. Could do with some music and a bit more of an introduction / tutorial along with a restart button. Well done!

jamesmowery 2016-01-04 01:58

Nice work. I made it over 500 before I just stopped.

Simple game, well made. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/S5oK4fsls3Q
