This is a neat idea, though a bit lacking to me. There seems to be no real downside to me just clicking the yoyo the second it touches the rope. I get a low amount of points, yes, but I'm still getting points. I'm not really incentivized to go lower as I'll get a high score just by clicking repeatedly. I think a way to get the player to engage more with the distance part is making a minimum distance that you have to go on the rope before you can score any points (Maybe about a third of the way down or so) and since you're already having to sink that low to get points, you may as well see how far you can go to get even more. Another option is having a timer for how long a round of scoring goes, making you have to make every throw count to really maximize your score.

Anyways, that's enough of me rambling. Those are just some ideas for thought. You did good here and this idea has some promise. Great work!

simple and easy to understand gameplay, kinda reminds me one of the microgames in GBA warioware, there is one that you could bounce a mini man up to reach a height to score, also another one to move sth left-and-right to catch the up-and-down bouncing man(not quite remember if they are in a same microgame?) check out warioware if you find interesting, and in terms of the visual, if you'd like to show the yoyo movement on y it might looks better if you could make the background pattern horizontal. but anyway, well done! please keep on!
