Grappling Hook Level Editor
A downloadable game for Windows
This project is on hold while I work on another project. It's future is unknown.
Make and play your own custom grappling hook platforming levels. Different platform types and unrestricted level scale allow for infinite creativity. Walk, jump, and swing your way to victory!
NOTE: Although there is a campaign option on the menu, it is not currently available. I have not had a chance to remove this from the game yet.
Controls:
- Main/pause menus
- Up/down arrow keys -> choose option
- Return key -> select
- Escape key -> go back
- Space key -> toggle play/edit modes
- Play mode
- Left/right arrow keys -> move
- C key (while grounded) -> jump
- X key (hold) -> grapple
- Press the arrow keys to aim the grapple (last left/right movement will determine the default fire direction.
- Down/up arrow keys (while grappling) -> increase/decrease slack
- C key (while not grounded) -> air boost
- The air boost aims opposite the current fire direction. EX: aiming down/right will boost you up/left.
- Return key -> pause
- Edit mode
- Arrow keys -> move cursor
- Q/E keys -> change editor mode (platform/start position/end position)
- A/S keys -> change platform type (normal, metal, ice)
