Unique grapple mechanic compared the the vast majority of grappling games. Music is a bit repetitive but I appreciate the option to turn it off.

Great gameplay.  It’s amazing it was only created in such a small window of time.

The animations in this game are top notch! The skill and determination required to make such a high quality, well made game in 7 days is tremendous! Way to go ClassicDagger!

I love the graphics and the sound effects/background music! x)

The hook mechanics for this game are way more in depth than it originally appeared and it hits just the right amount of frustration paired with "that was totally my fault". Just my type of game!

Really cool game, the visuals are beautiful and music that changes throughout the game is a nice touch, the grappling hook takes a bit to get used to, but it feels awesome after that, good job!

Cool game, hookshot mechanics are sick as hell-made in a very impressive timeframe too. Would recommend

Cool Game Pog/10

this game is the perfect blend between frustrating, addictive and satisfying. I love the physics of the grappling hook and the artwork is beautiful. Like others, I’m so impressed with how quickly you completed this game, and that you did it all by yourself, it really does show the wide scope of your talent!

This is a really challenging and fun game. The mechanics fit the theme of a foddian game, but this game has managed to make it feel fair and really fun to master. The grappling is tricky but becomes intuitive and I found myself moving much more quickly and confidently through areas I'd struggled with just a little while ago. The music and sound effects really work well to make this a fun game, and the art is really beautiful. Well done!

this is such a cool game. amazing that it was made in only 7 days.. you’re very talented! the visuals and sounds are spectacular and everything goes together great!

i love the music, sound effects, color palette, and the gameplay! It's clear that alot of care was placed into this game. Everything is so cohesive and well thoughtout. More importantly, i think it's impressive to complete a project in a short amount of time: it means it was well designed and scoped out, which is hard to do with such a creative endeavor. Excellent work!

Really cool game!

This is indeed a video game. THank you

Amazing game, I really liked the part where I almost won then didn't. You should try making a strand type game, I believe you would be quite talented in that field.

Amazon Game Studios is on the hunt for new opportunities. New World is doing well, but we'd like to expand into other genres and spaces in gaming. ClassicDagger, Free Hook is fantastic work and particularly in such a timely manner. You've expanded on a concept that many believed to have peaked. Please reach out to me. We should talk about your next moves. Perhaps Free Hook 2, Free Hook film rights... we'll see. You can contact me through Amazon support. Start a livechat and ask for Jeffy.

controls hard to get a hang of, but really nice presentation over all and cool idea.
