To contact you in a 3rd place haha.
I find it very fun and I'm not sure about the difficulty because I'm using a laptop trackpad and with slow and deliberate movements I got pretty far before I got annoyed with having to use slow deliberate movements and jumped off.
It's still beautiful though.

I finally got to a computer with a mouse to play it ( ) I really like it, played for 12 minutes, enjoyed myself, thought I was cheating, realized that I didn't know where to go after cheating...went back, fell. fun! It looks like you're already going to address the mouse showing and the sensitivity. I found myself "cheating" as I said, and I don't know if that is indented (more ways to get to the top) but it felt kinda weird because I missed a whole chunk of the level :/ So far, very nice keep up the good work. (also the visuals are very nice)

by cheating you mean like, looking down and triple, quadruple jumping ? It's a script I made to help myself develop the game .

Great game, Alice! I really like all of the designs, especially the well-thought out level designs. It's a pretty frustrating game, and unforgiving at that. But that said, I do think it's what gives the game what it is.
"Well, you were the one who fell. Sure you wanna climb that tower all over again?"
Some nice ambient music would make this game perfect.

I crashed it...
I died a bunch of times in the start (jumped too late or something...) then I looked up and "No more game for you!" *frozen*.

Man, I love the art in this. Low-poly is just awesome. The whole experience of just exploring this structure is really great, sort of like a 3D Knytt.
Right now I just really wish the mouse would be centered and hidden. Sort of detracts from the whole experience.

First there was Heat Line, and now we have Silver Line and Dry Point in the forums as well. This is getting confusing... I might have to switch the name of my game. That said, your actual game looks really awesome I look forward to more info, etc..

I just installed Batman: AA over the night, but I am more exited about this...I am a strange bugger.
EDIT: You can wall-jump...is this suppose to be there? Made the game much much easier...

Is that sun-flare effect new? I don't remember it in the other build. The height indicator is fine for now but I think you can do better than that . First I thought it was some weird visual glitch. I like the track, saw it when you posted it on Twitter but I didn't know you had a new build out yet. If you want the player to make it to the top as fast as possible then this track is perfect. But then you would make it easier, for some reason faster less calm music makes me want to hurry and not take me time, then I fail and I rage and I break things. Ha, that hasn't happened though (yet). More calm, and ambient music should be used instead. Or even just a slower track in general, doesn't have to be sparse or anything..Calming music like Aether (game by edmund), Osmos (hemisphere games), or Blueberry Garden. Just something that is kinda laid back and doesn't put any pressure on the player. Also there is nothing strange about that, mark. I just bought RE5 and I played the first few levels and that was it. I've played Drypoint much much more (and enjoyed it more) than I have that $50 game.
