it really feels great when you get the right angle and fling yourself upwards, i get the impression there's some potential for real mastery and you could whiz through if you get into the right rhythm

i'd suggest repositioning the grappling hook's sprite relative to its parent node so that the hook's point is in the center to make the rotation look more natural

I like the idea but the controls are incredibly unforgiving.

Fun game, well done!

The concept is solid, but unfortunately the level design left me making leaps of faith more often than not.

I played for a bit, got a few coins. I like the concept! I think it's a bit difficult to tell where I should be headed, the grappling hook also doesn't appear to reach very far so I had to take some risky jumps and just throw the hook off screen and hope I connected to something. I'd recommend zooming out a bit, and maybe pulling the player directly toward the hook (think Ocarina of Time)
