Treasures

very good!, i bet it would be easier with a gamepad

Thank you Joem. I could have used the mouse to aim for the grapple, but I wanted the game to be keyboard only. If I update the game post jam, I'll try to add some gamepad support. And maybe a line to show where the grapple is aiming.

Very comfortable control and nice camera movement, but I think I found a bug. I was stuck in some areas and could not continue the game further. Is this a bug or is it the way it should be?

@sssmonder Thank you for playing. For the movement, I spent most of the first day tweaking the movement so it felt good. What do you mean when you say you were stuck in some areas?

@pikachurian I could not get out of some places that you cannot get out of by jumping. For example, I got into a place measuring 1 high and 4 wide and it is impossible to jump out of it.

@ssmonder That's weird. I thought you were refering to the caves/tents that can sometimes block doors. The grappling hook should help with traversing most of what the level generator can throw at you. Did you know you can do a "wall jump" with the grappling hook by grappling a wall, jumping and grappling again with careful timing. I just posted a tips and tricks guide under related post, maybe that can help.

@pikachurian Sorry, I didn't know about that)

@ssmonder no problem. Hope the game is more enjoyable now

Great oldie-feeling game
The controls were a little overwhelming at the beggining and I would probably be able to go further down than what I did.

Overall great
Thank you :)

What is cooler than exploring a rand generated cave system: doing it with a grabbling hook of course! I really enjoy the gameplay (specially the grabbling hook :P) and the idea of hunting for treasures and then coming back to the surface.It felt to me very balanced, tight-controlled and rewarding to play. Music and art were nice companions.

Amazing work! Thanks for sharing :)

I was not able to check my score because the gameover screen come too fast. The sword bounding box is verrrrry adventageous for the player. I wish the graple would go up and down when the ceiling is too high instead of not giving any feedback. A buzz sound, could be enough, if there's no time to animate. The caves were fun to explore, but I think you could have a lot more replayability with just one or two more monster types ( flying ones for example or shooters )

@benjamin You're score doesn't show when you die because you only score points for making it back up to the surface. We were planning a few different enemy types such as a flying one or enemies that act like the bugs from Metroid that climb walls. The feed back sound is a good idea. The attack hitbox for the player is a bit generous, but it's to make the player feel powerful, and the game is kinda hard as is. Thank you for playing.
