Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

Attempt to rescue Rapunzel amidst flying boulders and arrows, while collecting flowers to bring to your soon-to-be wife!

She is a beautiful, remarkable young lady...right?

This was made for the Game Jam 5 in less than 48 hours.

amusing...

i've noticed a really annoying glitch where if you don't click somewhere on the game once it' starts you can't move. a bit annoying but otherwise great game

Thanks for playing, and we have fixed the glitch you mentioned :)

nice minigame

great art and the music perfically compliments its breezy look and style.

Adding drag to the hair gives this avoidance game its own unique feel.
kinda wish there was more animation to the player as he swung back an forth.

A lot of fun

It's amazing how everyone can create such good games in such a short time. I guess it helps that it's easy for me to get the medals at least. I knew there was going to be something different at the end because of what the medal said. I am glad you did not copy the joke made by "Cyanide & Happiness" regarding Rapunzel. I was expecting maybe a reference to the movie "Tangled". This is still well done with a lot of heart put into it.

The animation (especially the hero) seems to just glitter so well. I also appreciated the more simplistic stones and arrows. I can really tell that different people worked together to make one game. You really have to just dodge everything for as long as you can and don't look at the distance you have gone. Ah yeah, literature.

Thank you for the review, and I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

meh

It gets boring and one you get hurt from a rock it freezes,the ending was funny!

Enjoyable

It was quite fun to play! Love the choice of music, really fitting to the game play. Smooth controls without jerks and pauses which made things go perfectly. The surprise ending was really neat, and truthfully I sorta expected that to happen but really didn't believe it.

The art was really impressive. I understand it looks cartoon-y, but it feels fitting while playing the game. The graphics don't need to be uber in order to enjoy the game, so yes it turned out really cool that way. Also factoring in the swinging effect while moving side to side to avoid the objects, realistic.

Downside though, at first it seemed like a repetitive action at first where there will be no ending to the top. Maybe shorten that up where it don't seem too long. Would really love how to see the roses being tied further into the game, but also enjoy how that would be the score keeper as you collect them.

Possibly tie in some other factors that the player would be able to make the climb more interesting. I understand that adding upgrades of anything was not your intentions, but maybe add a few things that would help make the game seem a bit more different instead of the same thing over and over.

But hey, I really enjoyed this game and I say thank you for sharing this with the public. Would love to see more of your creations sometime in the future, and keep up the good work.

Well...The review of the day goes to you!
Although my response will be short, I read everything you had to say, and will be sure to keep everything in mind! We're planning to keep working on it, polish it even more, and then release it again!
Awesome review dude, thanks for playing the game!
