We’re a tiny game studio making ESCAPE VELOCITY, an explosive First-Person Puzzler!

Website: https://rats-with-wings.com
Working on something new: making the bomb better visually match how it's responding to the bomb-rope.

Normally (orange mode) the bomb explodes. If it lands near a bomb-rope, it acts different: it doesn't explode. Instead, it starts a chain reaction in the bomb-rope.

Here's how that looks: (WIP)

The other theme of this level is racing a bomb-rope, which is a lot of fun. Sometimes you'll clear a corner and see the rope ahead of you and think "oh shit I'm late" but with some speed you can usually catch up again

There's some cool stuff you can do with the Starter. For example, check out this bomb-surfing!

Also visible in the clip is a bit of bomb-climbing, which is essential to this map and another bit of code I'm pretty proud of.
