Really fun!

This game is really fun.This game is really fun, the graphics are very good, and the plot is also very interesting.

basekeet 2025-04-08 07:25

When the spike killed me, I instantly got flashbacks to I Wanna Be the Boshy 😅 Other than that, fun game!

xwilq 2025-04-08 07:27

I find the game really hard, almost like a rage game streamers play :sweat_smile: Nice job with the game!

2025-04-08 08:15

great game.!!I like the cute spidy> <. It's a bit difficult but extremely fun!!

2025-04-08 18:36

I like the pixel of this game! I find it hard to jump sometimes and use the web, but otherwise great game!

2025-04-08 18:39

Great job making the game!! Flashback to I wanna lol

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 18:53

@xwilq Definitely have to make changes of the difficulty of the game! I often forget the experience of creator and player is quite different! Thank you for the feedback! (A lot like a game Rage streamers would play I’m dead lmaooo)

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 19:01

@basekeet Spike flashback to I wanna is very accurate! First planned to do something more clever with the webs and traps, but ended up a lot different than I thought due to the time limit>.< Definitely will render the gameplay to something more unique! Thank you for the feedback!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 19:02

@yangyang Thank you so much!! Love your game too!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 19:03

@kekwu Thank you!!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 19:03

@ming-xu Thank you for the feedback!👍

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 19:04

@amesheep Thank you for the feedback!! I love the pixel art too🥺❤️will fix the level difficulties later on!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-08 19:06

@kunkun Theres are little bugs about the web coding and jumps! Shall be fixed, Thank you for the feedback!

cursewurm 2025-04-09 16:11

super cute art, and lovely atmosphere!! the little blue particles made it really pretty!! its kinda difficult at the start and i died a lot but once i got the hang of it it was super fun. I couldn't figure out how to use the web but it was cool shooting it around anyways! also the unity file just being called "HELL" took me out lolll

kerdelos 2025-04-09 16:43

The game really felt super difficult. The spike flying upward at the beggining of the game really killed me a lot of time. And the controls are not super clear. It took me a moment to understand that I could jump more than once and I still haven't figured out what I can do with the web ?

But still, when I could move after the flying spike I did enjoy the game !

Good job :)

floppynub 2025-04-09 17:42

Lol that one spike is a huge troll. Idk why I kept forgetting about it. Well designed level, smart approach, and it looked great! I'm not entirely sure how to use the web, but the visuals of it were neat, I'm curious how you accomplished that!

Good entry overall, keep it up!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-09 19:27

@cursewurm LMAOOOO still can’t believe anyone noticed the fact the file is hell im dead LMAO (suppose to be made somethin like hell then forgot to change since it ended so differently) the webs were supposed to used to block the spikes and hang around the wall to make it easier but too many bugs in the code🥺😭Will definitely improve on that! thank you so much for the compliment and feedback! Meant a lot!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-09 19:33

@kerdelos Understandable! Real sorry for your bad experience with the keys and difficulties! The webs were supposed to grabbed the walls and block the spikes but ended up with bugs and errors so it’s pretty useless at this point😭 Thank you so much with the feedbacks! Will definitely improve! I’m glad you enjoyed the rest of the game!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-09 19:55

@floppynub Thank you for your feedbacks and the comment on that spike lol! The webs we had a tough time completing and coding, it was meant to grabbed walls and block spikes to make the game easier but didn’t really work out>.< I’m really glad you liked the visuals though! For character animations and scene art we used Resprite and for platforms we drew a few tile pixel art of the platform and then setting up the level block by block using the tilemap adding the layer on top of the scene! We try to keep this part simple! (Might be the matching colors that made it look neat!) ❤️

floppynub 2025-04-09 20:05

@livelypersimmon Oh cool, thanks for the info! That's a smart way of going about it. I also wanted to come back and comment again because I forgot to mention how cute the little spider isssss they're adorable and yes I think you're right about the colors, they were picked well!

adamwigs 2025-04-10 02:54

I really wanted to play this game, but I was unable to get the game to load :(. I'm on a Mac, so maybe that's the issue? I really liked the cute pixel art spider!

engoneer 2025-04-10 03:20

Cute art style and music, i'm not sure what the abilities do really at the begginging so I think the intro could be easier. Otherwise nice start :)

livelypersimmon 2025-04-10 08:51

@adamwigs :O I think it might be the link problem if its not loading.(still trying to figure out why;;glad you pointed it out)you can try downloading the zip file, hope it helps and thanks for liking the pixel art spider!:D

livelypersimmon 2025-04-10 08:57

@engoneer Thanks! I agree, wouldve been much better for starting if an intro is added or made the controls clearer!

fikusm9 2025-04-10 10:17

Nice visuales. The spier is super cute. Took me a while to get that I can jump multiple times and I still don't get what the web does. I think you should make the spike collider a little bit smaller, it would make the player feel better. Anyways, pretty fun game, good job!

fancyreckless 2025-04-10 10:53

Really sweet cute game, web mechanic is pretty fun to explore. My only complaint is that spike colliders seem a bit wider than its graphics, so I died a bunch without noticing I touched them.

livelypersimmon 2025-04-10 14:08

@fikusm9 Yes I should! The collision area is too large for the spikes, this is a great suggestion! Web is still in construction, it was meant to grab walls and blocks——Thanks for the feedback!

patatje 2025-04-10 14:10

Lovely pixel art :) The hitbox of the spider is quite big though lol

mikhail-shchapov 2025-04-10 14:13

Fun and hardcore game, i saw the problem in jump - i can jump mid air, but that was pretty fun to abuse). btw spider is really cute

livelypersimmon 2025-04-10 14:15

@fancyreckless True, spikes collsion area is too big(Its uncomfortable when moving fast>.

grizeldi 2025-04-10 17:46

Something seems to be off with the game on my system, as I'm getting about 5 FPS on Ubuntu with Firefox

livelypersimmon 2025-04-11 14:18

@patatje lol yes indeed, shall be fixed:3Thanks for the feedbacks!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-11 14:22

@mikhail-shchapov oh LMAOO, it was meant to jump once but if its funnier lol im dead< thanks for the comment!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-11 14:24

@grizeldi trying to upload on itchio, hope it works better>

linky439 2025-04-11 17:46

Fun idea! Unfortunately, as others pointed out, the collision boxes for both the spider and the spikes are too big which makes it too easy to die in place where you visually should be able to go through! Also I am not sure how you are supposed to make the first jump (on the first moving platform) if the infinite jumping mechanic isn't meant to be a thing ^^

I understand you lacked time to properly finish up some mechanics (such as the web), but congrats on making the deadline anyway!

mars88 2025-04-11 18:10

Very interesting game, but I realized you can jump infinitely, not sure if it's a bug or not

flying-dog-fish 2025-04-11 18:16

I didn't know spiders could fly. Or is that just an infinite jump glitch? The web doesn't seem to actually do anything. Spike collision detection is way to sensitive too. The game is fun even with these glitches. Or maybe because of them. The spider looks really cute.

livelypersimmon 2025-04-13 13:24

@linky439 Thank you for commenting! The collision box indeed needs to be fixed! When I first tested the first jump on the moving platform without the infinity jump(lol)you can make it with the right timing. But if its more fun with the infinity jump I think it's a good ability to keep!

livelypersimmon 2025-04-13 13:25

@mars88 :D im considering keeping the infinity jump as a game mechanics! But yeah its a bug thou()

livelypersimmon 2025-04-13 13:28

@flying-dog-fish The jump was meant to be once but I am keeping this game mechanics(bug) since is more fun! The web is half-finished I think that's why its not really grabbing the walls>< Thank you for your feedback!

darefus 2025-04-17 20:09

ffuuunn fun gam, it was p hard but nott in an anoyning way,, and it was supre qute!! im enjoyed explring the diff routes round th lil maze --- i cn imagine lil collectibles in diff hidden challenge spots liuke that in a fuller release or smthing~

livelypersimmon 2025-04-19 13:25

@darefus I really like the idea of collectibles and hidden challenges!!Thank you for the feedback<3

bartholomheow 2025-04-19 17:54

The embed doesn't seem to work for me. I had the same issue, disabling caching and changing compression format seemed to help.

vegeo 2025-04-19 19:34

Anything critiques I had on the project are all addressed already, so I'll just say, I look forward to what you do in the future! Plus, I dig the music. Good mood!

dios 2025-04-21 15:10

Very cute spider😊❤️

But after 5 minutes of active play I still don't understand how the web mechanics work.

It's also worth noting that the spikes have a very large collision, which reacts to the player when he doesn't even touch their visual display

ming-xu 2025-04-21 16:53

It's really cool, and the art style is very good-looking! I love this game very much

dovodx 2025-04-25 23:10

When I saw that flying spike I was like "ohhh... so that's how it is" lol. I definitely agree with the above commenter that the spike hitboxes are absurd esp. with how big the player is. The web being able to block the spikes probably could've come in clutch if not for the bugs (the ones that aren't the spider harhar). Idk if the infinite jumping was intentional, but I liked it. Also, you can enable interpolation in Unity for smoother movement without having to increase the physics update rate. It's noticeable if you jump really high and let yourself fall down (at least, on a high refresh monitor, not sure how it looks at 60Hz).
