GRiPPY

GRiPPY is a hardcore, subversive platformer where you cant walk or jump but you can climb. You play as Grippy, a creature with very, very strong arms, but no legs. You must travel by hurling yourself across the world and latching onto anything you can GRIP, climbing through a mysterious underground complex and overcoming hostile terrain. Find a way out to win!

CONTROLS

O/X (z/x on keyboard): reach out a hand and grab
left/right: rotate aim angle
down (hold): aiming mode; reach without grabbing
up: hop

You can change your control settings in the pause menu.

Check it out on itch.io.

I spent a lot of time and effort making this game. The map, sfx, token limit, and spritesheet are packed. If you like it, you can purchase executables on the itch.io page. If you find any bugs, let me know!

Oh, and please, post your finish times! I'm excited to see how fast people can beat it. Once someone beats my time I'll post mine. >:)

here is my game where you play as a very red (or blue or green or yellow or orange) man who cant walk very well but he can grip like nobodys business.

if you want to try out what i have, feedback would be appreciated. mostly just trying to get fresh opinions on the feel of the movement and the level designs, but if you want to peek around and tell me how horrible my code is, feel free to do that too

CONTROLS

O/X: reach out a hand and grab
left/right: rotate aim angle
down (hold): aiming mode; reach without grabbing
up: hop

update: fixed some bugs, added "warning sign" to the difficult shortcut routes, added new end screen, made player physics less bouncy to avoid unfair deaths, softened some difficulty spikes with extra checkpoints, made checkpoints refresh when you acquire keys, new titlescreen, other improvements

i've been working pretty much full-time the past month or so on this little game, so if you liked it, feel free to toss some spare change to my paypal, and later it will be on itch.io (when i finally finish the damn thing). The pico-8 version is more or less just a demo of what I want to make into a "full game" down the line, and if things go well with this one I'll be working on that ASAP!

old versions:

*yes i know it is physically the other way around on your keyboard but i coded it like that so idc
