Start the first swing is a bit difficult, but after understand how it works, the next rounds are quickly to start.
At a first glance, I didn't understand what the games use to score (I needed 3-4 tries to understand when the game score the balls)

The visuals are good and the retro-style is nice.

Good game

Developer

Yup I agree. Should've stated it on the tutorial too! Thanks for playing!

Spinning around its always the way! had fun, would love some variety to even have more fun!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

very nice arcade-style game ! the swinging was very fun, and the difficulty felt just right. visuals were really cool too!! great job !

Developer

Thanks!

Sleek, stripped down to only what it needed, and a retro vibe. What's not to love? The spinning felt a little bit clunky, but that's basically the biggest complaint I have about this. Solid arcade game!

Developer

Yeah I would need to rework the spinning mechanic. Thanks for playing!

This is a really interesting idea! Works very well as a minimal high score chaser. It was fun to get the hang of, especially trying to take advantage of the momentum from grappling onto a new node and turn it into more revolutions. The visuals were really sleek and the audio was nice as well. Great job!

Thank you!

Very interesting concept! It was satisfying watching the ball swing from one orb to another. I saw that your tutorial said to hold right mouse button to grapple, but left mouse is what worked for me. Add some enemies/obstacles, and this would start to be a real challenge. Nice twinkly sounds!

Yea... The tutorial was made at the last second, didn't have time to change it before I realized :⁠-\ Thanks for pointing it out and thanks for playing!

Simple design but hard to master. Lends itself to a lot of interesting and cool ideas, though!

Developer

Definitely will continue to updating it later on. Thanks for playing!

Actually really loved this one.

Developer(+1)

Hahaha thanks!

Took a little while to figure it out, but really good once you get going.

Developer

Yep it does take a while to understand. Thanks for playing!

Super simple and super satisfying, really fun when you get a good flow going.

Glad you liked it! Thanks for trying it out!

Really nice game! feels very satisfying to hit some jump aswell, I feel like this would work specially well on mobile!
I would have liked to see the dificulty ramping up gradually or introducing some kind of new mechanic!
Really fun game, addictive, and well polished, great job!

Developer

Glad you liked it! Will definitely add more features in the future. Thanks for trying it out!

Submitted(+1)

Fun idea and well executed! It seems very polished, but I think some more features, like enemies you have to avoid or something, could make it more interesting. Good job!

Developer

Definitely! Will add some more in the future! Thanks for playing!

pretty neat! the physics are satisfying so it's fun to play with, though I wish the game got harder as you accumulated points

Developer(+1)

Working on it as the voting continues! Thanks for trying it out!

I love the mechanic. Playing this game kinda make me addict to it and just want to go back and play again.

Hahaha thanks! Glad you liked it.

Very cool mini game ! I had a rough start but after understanding the concept, it was super smooth. Love the fact that you gain the points only when the circle touch the edge of the screen. Would love a bit more of progression but it's a jam game :) Smart scope, well executed, music is perfect, good job ! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Glad it's understandable overtime.

Simple but effective, really like this one. It does feel like the challenge could ramp up a bit steeper though? Just a thought

Developer

The challenge doesn't really ramp up overtime right now. But that's a great idea to add, thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

The mechanic is interesting and fun. It's neither too easy nor too hard, and it makes you want to do better every time. Well done!

Developer

Thanks, glad you liked it!

Love games like this with simple mechanic, but enough complexity to keep playing. Also I guess it is easy to expand it adding more mechanics and layers of complexity

Developer(+1)

Yep definitely! Thanks for playing.

Fun. Seems you need some Grapplety Arms though. You get get them now for 10% off in every store in Cranberrica!

Developer

Woah what it's 10% off! Hahaha thanks for playing!

Submitted(+1)

Super fun game mechanic. I wish the was more to it in the sense of obstacles or maybe levels or smthn

Developer

Definitely agree with you. There's not a lot of things to do in the game. Thanks for trying it out and commenting, will note this for future update!
