Peaks of Yore DEMO

Windows defender flagging the exe file, still safe or no?

Love the look of this game, but I can't play it because it's constantly looking up into the top left corner of the screen. Excited to see if mouse centering gets fixed, could be my system though. No worries, cool stuff!

Great demo, I am keen to see the full version. 

Sadly i think you kinda killed it with the last climb...birds! Don't get that at all, they do nothing but cause frustration and kill the experience in my mind. No real need for them. Either get rid of them or maybe give some tips on how to get past them if not.

View can be a little difficult to deal with at times but other than that everything seems well made and works well. 

Side note, possible glitch with left hand not holding properly (windows version), i constantly fall due to it letting go for no reason. Never happens with the right hand so it makes me wonder if it's a bug, just seems odd so i thought i would mention it.

Nice job, good luck with future development.

i love it. i am a big fan of the VR game "climb" and this reminds me of it. I really like it because its basically a really cool version of climb that i dont need to setup Oculus Link for lol. anyways, very original idea and its very well executed. i love it and cant wait to see the finished product!!!!

I've been playing games since I was 6 and this is tied for #3, currently.

Love the appearance and the wobbly physics driven climbing mechanics

You managed to take what would be an annoying waste of time in most other games (getting past a vertical barrier preventing progress) and turn into an awesome game, that's crazy impressive.  Climbing feels amazingly good, there's just enough looseness in the physics that you can slingshot yourself like an living Stretch Armstrong toy once you get a feel for it, the seagulls are realistically depicted as the petty, sadistic little winged demons they truly are,  and the wacky hand physics are the icing on the cake.

My hands actually sweat quite a bit when I got into the groove of climbing,  especially on the final peak. Apparently my brain didn't know or care by that point that the wall was virtual, that it could interpret color signals from my eyeballs, or that its host body is anything but that of a posh 19th century gentleman with superhuman endurance.

I can't wait to play the full version whenever it's finished, however long it may be until then since you can't rush perfection.

I made an account just so I could leave a comment about this game.

The concept has so much promise and I can't wait to see how the development continues from here. The only issue I had with the game was with how short it was, but that was completely expected with a brand new game like this. I love the aesthetic of everything and can't wait to buy the full release when it eventually comes out. I don't care how long I have to wait, and as long as time is taken to finish it, that wait will be very worth it.

This game is great. Amazing concept, amazing execution. I didn't encounter any bugs on my first walkthrough, but i did develop some hate for the seagulls. But it's fun to learn how to counter them and where to put ropes.  8/10, would absolutely buy/download the full version, wich comes to my question, wil the game be free when fully released?

Ok, first: I absolutely love it. I think this can be the next big game. The concept is great, I feel its like the natural follow up to games Like "Getting Over It", but  with actually more gameplay depth and atmosphere. I think the 19th century setting works great. Only critical feedback at this time would be about the textures, since they proved a little difficult while recording (at least for me) - kind of reminded me of people wearing striped shirts on tv, which creates this horrible effect.

I already did 2 videos on it  (In German) and hope to be climbing more mountains soon!

Thanks and keep up the good work!

love the art and concept!

it's unplayable on my 2017 macbook pro with Radeon graphics card , presumably because it runs at native resolution. Having a way to set resolution would be nice because I'd really love to try it :)

Absolutely loved it. Only notes are that I think my rope pulled me down through the summit of the Old Man and killed me a few times, but I respawned on the rope. If the rope actually can prevent you from ascending, it'd be nice to have some on-screen feedback to let you know you're at the end of the rope.

Fantastic Demo. Absolutely worth playing. Would love to see a finished version.

Highly recommended.

I found a few bugs, firstly sometime my hand would phase through the mountain make me fall and sometimes when i was falling with the rope and suddenly i would fly up. on windows btw

Really satisfying to play. I love the rope mechanics but as some said I'd like to swing with it to reach further away slopes.

Some bugs I found

• Half the times I opened the journal the closed map was covering the left page.
• After I picked up that hat thingy and started cleaning it, I couldn't find a way to rotate it so I couldn't clean it all. Maybe im just dumb tho. Also could't exit that cleaning minigame.

Other than that seems pretty good. Would love to see it developed further. Seagulls are officially my least favorite animal now.

Nice! Climbing is incredibly enjoyable if not a little stressful, but I was a a tad miffed by the rope.  I think it would be a lot of fun if 'Q' toggled a hold on the rope and you could climb to various lengths with 'W' and 'D' with one hand available for use.  Couple scenarios where I wanted to go half length and swing around a corner to grab a rock. Especially with those bloody seagulls. 

Also, as I scale the last rock to summit the 'Old Man of Sjor' the character kept clipping through the ground and falling back down.  Never managed to get past that. 

i cant play the guy just looks up and spins around forever

I can't play it because I have an azerty keyboard. plz add arrow keys 

any plans for a mac version?

Brilliant concept and visual style, enjoyed it a lot.

i love this so much, i will trade my soul for the full release ;-;
