Hookie - The Mountaineer
This game is the official submission for the Mini Jam: 86 held on 6th August 2021.
The game was built keeping the theme Sport along with the limitation "no stopping" in mind.
Play as Hookie, a skilled mountain climber. Your only goal is to collect keys and open portals. You cannot jump, you cannot stay still on walls for too long and you only have limited grapple uses.
Controls:
- Press WASD or Arrow Keys to move up, down, left or right.
- Press G to open the grapple followed by arrow keys to adjust your aim.
- In order to release the grapple, press G again. Note: you cannot undo your action once the grapple is released.
- Stick to walls and simultaneously move up or down to climb walls. Note that the downward and sideways keys must be pressed together at all times.
- Press R to restart any level.
If you enjoyed the game, please do rate it. As always, all constructive criticism is welcome.

Cute game! I liked the presentation and gameplay. One little bug I found, on the tutorial level when it says "Use G to activate grapple", if you press G while that prompt is still up, instead of pressing enter to clear the prompt, the game will freeze.
Not clear that you needed to get the fruit in order to grapple but I did figure that our in the end. Otherwise very nice game well put together GG.
thank you so much for the constructive feedback!
g doesnt seem to work for the hook and neither does anything else !
I’m so sorry this caused a problem for you!
I realise I should’ve put a good tutorial in the beginning. So the lightning symbol on the top represents the amount of grapples you have left and collecting strawberry’s enables the grapples for you. Maybe you can try it out now.
