Beautiful looking game with a great mechanic, but I can't get past the second spike jump on the second level.  I feel like Shift or F isn't the best choice for the throw button since then everything is happening on your left hand -- I was playing by having my right hand pressing F right next to my left.  Anyway, it feels like the longer I wait, the farther I go when I snap and the more momentum and the further I should go, but that doesn't seem to be the case, it seems like pressing early or late doesn't affect my momemtum as much as I think it should.  I tried that jump for a few minutes and was just barely missing; is there a secret to these mechanics or is it just a really tight jump?

Edit: Oh lol I forgot about right shift

yeah that's just a pretty difficult jump, I had trouble with it too. Due to crunch time we didn't have time to revise any of the difficulty of the levels. Thanks for playing!

the jump isn't that tight. Its even possible to overshoot it without even landing on top of the platform. 

I guess my level design just didn't make the best setup obvious enough. 

Basically just stand next to the wall and throw your horse at the wall while jumping and zip to it when its above you.

OK, finally got it -- I may have been somewhat hesitant to throw my cow into spikes but I didn't realize he was impervious to the damage.  Even now it took some time to get the rhythm, but once I did it was pretty consistent -- Jump, throw, snap up.

Edit: And woot, I completed the game.  I actually only had 6 stars when I got home so I went back to the first snake spring stage to grab the extra star there -- I managed to grab the star by waiting for the cow to fly over the spikes and fall down so I could snap to him and go through the wall.
