Pretty interesting game! Took a bit to figure out some of the mechanics, but gonna boot this up again later to try ang get better at it. Seems like a game you can get quite good at. 👀
This was really unique and interesting! Killing enemies was a bit unclear at first, but once you understand it gets really fun!
Yes, sorry I did not find time enough to figure out how to explain properly the mechanic, so I just slapped a first level with 2 crates and no enemy to just let people try stuff and figure out what works. ^^”
Ah, I see. But I still really love the mechanics of the main chain mechanic. How it fluidly moves around gave me the motivation to figure out how it all works.
Technically its 30 small AnimatedBody2D pieces, a bit of Verlet integration, and an orange line drawn to join them. :)
