Grapple Run is a top-down 2D runner game, where you explore through 15 unique levels to find out the truth about your creation. The game has an addictive playstyle, where you're expected to die. A lot.
The main gimmick is the grappling mechanic; by default, the main character cannot turn, but instead they can grab onto "grapple-points" (marked by red hitmarkers) and swing around them! When you let go, you'll turn around and fling in a direction, depending on where you let go! On top of sliding, jumping, and many other mechanics, the game's got lots of depth!

Devlog #5
First off; that exciting thing I mentioned is sadly delayed, since the OST is taking longer to be composed than I thought.
Also: I implemented yet another change to scoring some might find interesting. Check the article.
Hey everyone. I've been working, but progress has been a little slow lately. Most of the current developments have been in polishing and tweaking parts of the game. The boring part, essentially.
But I'll have something exciting soon.
Very exciting.

Grapplerun Devlog #4: Hey everyone! It's been a bit, and I'm sorry for that: school's been rough and posting devlogs (as well as game development in general) has slipped by the wayside. I'm back now, though!
Check out the article below!
A new feature this time on the Grapplerun Devlog: This cool new background I made for the game's Infinite Mode! It's animated, with random colors!
Oh, did I forget to mention the game had an infinite mode? Oops. Well, it does!
See you all next time! :D
