How does your game fit the theme?
Two ways! First: you rewire things (ie., join them together); second: the grappling hook mechanic "joins together" player movement and environment interaction!

Cool mechanic, but it took me quite a while to understand that I could only connect to the gray tiles.
Also I think a variable-length grapple (where you manually reel in and out) could have benefited this game instead of an immediate pull-type grapple.
Despite the difficulties with the grapple, quite an enjoyable game! Good work!
I totally agree. I plan to work on an improved version soon with a grapple like you described, allowing better control and swinging.
Thanks for the feedback about the tile types - I was already planning on fixing up textures, but I'll try to make some levels to better teach the difference.
Thanks for playing!
Quite intuitive mechanics on the game. Swining was quite hard and was not sure if that was even intended mechanic. Nice work still!
Thank you! Yes, swinging on the grapple can be pretty difficult. In the future I'd like to go back and make it more rope-like rather than just something that pulls you straight towards it.
I liked the mechanic ! A bit hard to grasp sometimes what you “can “ or “cannot” do, and you end up clicking a lot, but it is nice to combine grapple and interactivity like that.
Thank you! I tried to make the textures show what you can do (for example, light tile = grapple-able, dark = not; this applies to wiring the mechanisms too), but unfortunately I didn't have time to redraw them and make it more clear.
Nice game, although the movement is a bit too fast for my liking.
It is a fun game! I am going to need a little help to move forward in the levels - I'm not much of a gamer.
I found it hard to jump through the door in level8. But still a good game. Love it👍
I really liked this one! The final level was my favorite in getting to interact with the blinking power source. Though I feel like at times I found unintentional solutions to the puzzles, it was still really fun nonetheless. 👍
Thank you for playing!
There are several ways to beat some levels; the intended solution is whichever you like best!
