✦ AI summary
Players are divided on this climbing game, with some finding it an enjoyable casual experience worth the budget price despite technical issues, while others criticize it as a low-effort asset flip with significant bugs like random respawning that disrupt gameplay. The core complaint centers on the game's quality and originality, with tension between the developer and reviewers over whether problems stem from poor execution or player inexperience.
***** UPDATE TO REVIEW - May 31, 2025 ***** This asset cobbler (because at this point I can't in genuine honest call him a 'developer') decided to respond to my critical review of his asset cobbled together mess and use the all the common defense that too many indie trash devs have used over the years.. that his game is 'great' and the problems were in fact due to my "lack of skill" as an indie game reviewer. He also stated several things that were either not true or flat out lies in his response. I respond to the asset cobbler's response in this new video: https://youtu.be/rLweaagiRfc ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- ORIGINAL UN-EDITED REVIEW - From May 26, 2025 ----- Just another REALLY bad and REALLY broken "Only Up" clone. Don't get me wrong.. I wanted to like it, I really do and at first, I felt myself getting high hopes for it. The controls seems pretty good.. The starting view was pretty spectacular. But then the terrible hit boxes and the crazy bugs started hitting all too quickly and I made a decision that I wasn't going to fight against a games terrible design and bad mechanics yet again. https://yo…3 found this helpful
so I received the product for free and honestly I enjoyed my time with it, I played through the first three levels and I just enjoy this kind of mindless climbing, there were unfortunately a couple of bugs which could ruin the pacing for some people, major one being it randomly sending you back to the spawn point of the level (usually when climbing a ledge from what i could tell) But aside from that, I think it has promise, especially for a first title and for $4 (at the time of writing this) I think it can easily kill an hour or two and support someone interested in making games.
