I really liked the cutscenes, they added a lot of charm to the game. The mechanic was super cool as well as the limited length of the rope connecting to the tether points, you could make some interesting puzzles with this. As another commenter mentioned I also cheesed it a bit by pause buffering with gravity switches, it may make more sense to have the ability recharge after touching the ground/a pickup if you all continue with this idea. I also recommend making the controls use up/down when sideways + have consistent directions for games such as this as it feels a bit strange to press right and end up moving left. Overall the game was excellent though, keep making games!
