Gravelblock's workshop

Currently working on Voidhook, a grappling hook platformer : http://gravelblock.itch.io/voidhook I should post more often...

[gravelblock]

Updated the game's itch․io page (link) with a new trailer and screenshots to showcase the stuff added in 2025.

Also, happy new year! 🎆

I added an ice biome to my game. Available right now on itch․io! I'm trying to inject some much needed variety into this thing.

[gravelblock]

Bombs in my game are engineered to be non lethal, but they're very effective at clearing rocks.

[gravelblock]

The game looked way too dull, so I added colors!

Left is old, right is new.

[gravelblock]

I just pushed the first update for Voidhook:

Added grappling hook customization (unlocked at level 1).

Tried to clarify the tutorial a bit.

You can get the game for free here.

Comments and criticisim are welcome.

Have a nice day!

[gravelblock]

By the way, feedback/criticism of my games is welcome! Just wanted to make that explicit.

[gravelblock]

I'm ready to share what I've been working on for the past year!

Voidhook is an arcade platformer in which you use a grappling hook to traverse procedurally generated levels.

A demo is available now on itch․io: https://gravelblock.itch.io/voidhook 🪝

Quick post to announce that Dream Hook 1.0 is now 1 year old!

Hello, I posted a short progress video of my game on my Youtube channel :)

[gravelblock]

Hello people, and happy new year! 🥳

I am ready to share my latest project! There is still a lot of uncertainty about the design, but the high level goal is to make the best coop experience I can.

I'm stepping out of my confort zone with this one by tackling both 3d graphics and multiplayer (local and probably online). Very exciting!

[gravelblock]

Someone posted a speedrun of my game and i'm so happy. (Spoiler for the "secret" ending by the way.)
