Any chance of a YouTube play by one of the team? I would love to see the game in action, can’t play it on my phone, but will check it out when I’m at a PC

TolMera (@tolmera) Sure, I will add gameplay video in something about 6 hours.

Pretty cool! The art looks great, but the gameplay is clunky and confusing. I like the grapple mechanics. Hope you work more on it!

matharoo (@matharoo), we will fix a lot of bugs and add some more sounds.

There's a really cool atmosphere going on here, but the gameplay being kinda clunky coupled with the lack of feedback for a lot of actions makes it a little hard to get into. Looking forward to that gameplay footage though, the screenshots from later on look rad!

mathemagician (@mathemagician) Yeah, espeshially grapling hook that could be thrown only to objects. We are going to fix it.

Good work on the graphics and mood! The controls were a bit clunky. I got stuck after the big hand with the glowing thing. Good work!

The controls lack some polish but the graphics and audio come well together to create a really dark atmosphere, I love it :)

Jonathan Lorenz (@jonathan-lorenz), it was the end of the game LOL. We just had no time to indicate it.

TolMera (@tolmera), I have added a gameplay video

Felt a little stiff to control but I really liked your artwork and atmosphere. The music was perfect for this tone. I think just a couple sound effects would have really elevated this one up just that little bit more. Good work! :)

The artwork and music work together well to create a very atmospheric game. Good job!

The game looks gorgeous. This world looks mystery and interesting, and I feel like the game telling you so little about what's happening actually works really well. The controls and movement are a bit wonky, but the actual feeling of grappling gameplay was fun! Reminded me a bit of one of those old Spider-Man flash games.

I liked it!
