#Game Systems
You are Rick, the yellow frog, and using his extending tongue for rope maneuvers, you must solve puzzles and journey towards the insect-filled paradise.
Rick's tongue stretches infinitely and can be attached to boxes, vines, etc. to perform rope maneuvers and move objects.
In VINE, the laws of physics are very important, and if you understand gravity acceleration, centrifugal force, Rck can swing ike Tarzan.Once you become familiar with the rope mechanic, you journey to Cosmos. The Cosmos building is old and dilapidated, with treacherous paths. If you are smart, you can solve the puzzles and easily reach Paradise. However, it won't be easy. With over 200 puzzles awaiting, it will still be quite challenging.
Depending on your abilities, Rick will be able to consume many insects. Moreover, if you come across Uru's journals hidden throughout Cosmos, you will learn about the events that unfolded.
For some unknown reason, there are many hazardous contraptions inside the Cosmos building. Will Rick be able to reach Paradise?Thank you for your time!

VINE is a challenging precision platformer with a tongue-swing gimmick that appeals to players who enjoy difficult puzzles and don't mind persisting through lengthy levels, but its controls feel clunky on both controller and keyboard, making the difficulty frustrating rather than satisfying. Players also report occasional physics jank, wildly unbalanced voice volume levels, and limited technical features like a 1440p resolution cap that feel dated for modern PCs.
for a precision platformer, game felt very clunky on both controller and keyboard. Voice volume compared to all other volume was also wildly unbalanced, but the controls issue is the main problem for a precision platformer.8 found this helpful
VINE is yet another of literally thousands of 2D retro platformers infesting Steam and lowering the average quality of all video games everywhere. This is a dead boring 2D retro pixel platformer where you control a frog and must negotiate various hazards. There's a "swing" gimmick where you can use the frogs tongue, but otherwise this has no other differentiators from the other thousands of platformers that gamers ignore on Steam. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. The developers didn't design the game for modern gaming PCs, as such the display resolution caps out at around 1440p, there's no support for the state-of-the-art 4K or higher resolutions. The game simply won't look right on modern gaming displays due to this failure on the part of the developers. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up t…4 found this helpful
VINE can be a really challenging game, but that is exactly the kind of game I like. Some levels I got the hang of it quite quickly, but others took me way over an hour to complete. Some puzzles I passed through sheer luck of a block or jump going exactly right, other puzzels I felt like a mathematical genius for solving. If you are up for the challenge, like puzzles as much as I do, and don't give up easily: VINE is the game for you!3 found this helpful
I'd love to play as an adorable baby frog with pure eyes and an infinitely long tongue that can handle everything, IF I got a pair of dexterous hands and a powerful brain.2 found this helpful
Cute and challenging puzzle game, some jank in the physics on occasion but for the most part things work. I enjoyed them but some of the chase sequences may be a put off for those that just want a relaxing time solving puzzles. Very charming game overall.1 found this helpful
