The grappling hook mechanic took about a minute to get used to, then I was flying around the level, too fast a lot of the time. The mood was great, it got the spooky cave feeling down well. Thanks for the game!
Very pretty game, I too enjoyed the whale. I didn't quite understand what was happening once I got to the end, I thought I had run out of energy, but then the end screen popped up. I did enjoy how the deeper you went the darker it was, that was neat!
That was great. I appreciate the take on the theme, and it had a great setting. It took a bit to get the hang of the game, I died in the tutorial 3 times, but once I did I got through it. It had interesting enemy variety, I think the starting A monsters might've been a little hard (see dying in the tutorial). Thanks for the game!
The game has potential, it's not quite there yet. I felt like I was clicking the switch position buttons to try out different layouts, but was unsure what was happening. I kept thinking the Warrior was waving a white flag when he was using his axe. Adding different abilities and maybe highlighting what is happening on the character's ability list at the bottom of the screen to give a better idea of what is happening. Thanks for the game!
The first time I played it on itch.io I didn't see the hud with the score and sanity meter. I had to expand to full screen to understand what was happening and why I went insane. Overall it was pretty smooth, there were a few times I tried mining the ore and nothing happened, and I got stuck on the wall a few times. Otherwise its got a lot of potential if you continue with it. Thanks for the game!
To second and third the above comments, a lot of time spent figuring out the controls and camera to end up drilling strait up or down and not actually going anywhere. Overall the game has a cool aesthetic, the lava looked really nice. Sound was great too. Thanks for making it!
