It's a very interesting game but way too glitchy, couldn't finish it because of that.

Fun game indeed

I have climbed through the intense caverns and have to say that was the fun part of the game, I didnt see much that it was lacking but it was pretty amusing and pretty entertaining and I had some fun with it, The game effects like lighting are very nice the anchor is a nifty and needed tool, you gave it some unique gameplay its like a platformer but with some intense effects

Cool concept and game
