Interesting demo but needs a lot of polish

Finally finished it! It is fun when you get the hang of it. The biggest feedback is that I would like to add force if I grab a point/arm and move it. Like, if I am attached with one arm, I should be able to grab another arm and move it to make the star swing around the attached arm. Also, I could not get the "hold control to not grow"-thing work. Good level design, nice art. Great job overall!

The idea is really fun. Sadly I could not move very long.

Finished the first level, had a really fun time! The game reminds me of Getting Over It, but here the movement system is a bit more complex. Very cool!!!

This is a nice mechanic. I guess the star is the little cousin of Octodad :) Liked to play it. Thanks!

I agree with @sharploaded about adding force when moving arms. It felt like it was easiest and quickest to just use 1 arm to drag myself around, which probably isn't what you intended. Really creat concept though!

Goofy game (I mean it in the best way possible). Does remind me of Getting Over It with both controls and goofiness, I laughed and could not finish first level.

actually innovative, haven't seen anything before. but a bit difficult to get how to move. Again really nice interpretation of the theme.

W game from the very beginning I didn't understand how to play and then I realized that I was stuck

Прикольная игрушка, управление сложное, но в этом и прикол игры WW

Очень оригинальный геймплей. Я прошел первый уровень, на втором паркурил пока не сорвался - секунды до катастрофы. Но все равно было очень весело. Прикольно что можно махать другими щупальцами или предметами, это немного помогает раскачиваться. Управление трудное, но тут сложно придумать. Может быть назначить щупальцам кнопки 1-5, тогда будет удобнее перехватывать стены в полете. Удачи!

Really interesting movement mechanic. Enjoyed rolling around on the ceiling!

Great entry with a very cute story! Finally a game that correctly depicts how seastars move :smile: Very innovative controls

Wow this is a great gameplay mechanic! A bit hard for me but it was still fun and innovative. Great work!

Really cool! Bit tricky to get the hang of at first, but very rewarding once you figure it out. Many good ways of playing with the mechanics, with the pickups, colours, etc. The star is super cute and the graphics and colours are nice. Just wish there was audio! Very inventive game mechanic and fun puzzles. Nice!
