Interesting idea! I wish the grappling hitbox were a little more generous, and that there was some "double tap protection", where the game would prevent you from immediately releasing right after grappling. As it is it's pretty tough, and I couldn't get past level 2 hahaha. Maybe also a sound effect and a slight visual change when you enter grapple range with something would help too. But the visuals are nice, and the screaming was funny too. Great job!

i like the idea here but i couldn't quite get the hang of it, didnt help that changing the controls didnt seem to work for me, having the arrow keys the other way round makes a lot more sense in my head

im a fan of the art, the background looks so nice, the sound was quite good as well

i managed 2 of the levels and could see some interesting level design within them

overall nice job!

Interesting game, though I think it's a little hard to get used to the physics. Otherwise, I thought it was cool

Super fun and extremely serious, but the physics took a while to get used to. Great game!

It's a bit of a difficult game for me

Really fun; it reminded me of the uncanny valley games variety streamers play. Love the grotesque arm stretching and colliding noises. I did have some issues with fullscreen; the menu especially was cut off. The swinging direction arrows were a bit counterintuitive.

Thanks for playing! I’m guessing that the menu glitch cut off the settings button because that’s where you can change controls.
