I absolutely love how this game looks. The color palette you chose is absolutely awesome! Would love to try that palette myself sometime :) The mechanics feel great, but I just got stuck on one part where you have to land by the red flag and I couldn't do it, but would love to finish the game. Awesome stuff!

Excellent game, especially the presentation. I found the learning curve very steep (I was stuck at the first dove for an embarrassingly long time), but the guide video helped. One thing I would have liked is the ability to click instead of pressing space. Great work!
All around excellent submission! My only real complaint is how difficult it was to learn some of the mechanics such as the fact that you can control movement mid-air and some of the details with the 1-way platforms.
This is an awesome game! my only issue is there seems to be very little connection between where the hook goes and where the mouse is pointing. not to say the hook should go exactly where the mouse is, but I would think the mouse would be used to show the angle at which the hook will come out, which doesn't seem to be the case.
This game strikes the perfect balance between frustrating deaths and addictive gameplay. Honestly I have fallen so many times but I just want to keep going to progress further into the level. The visuals are nice and the music almost beckons you to keep playing. The grappling mechanic is very cool and it really does require a degree of skill to learn, its not just a "throw it and hope" situation. There is an NPC near the beginning that keeps mocking me when I fail, this just pushes me harder to prove his bitchass wrong!
Awesome work! :)
