I think this was the most creative use of the theme in the platformer genre. Polished presentation and well-thought-out level design.

Take No TurnsThe premise is a clever interpretation of the brief. The removal of falling from a platformer is interesting as it is not something the player consciously instigates, but a central system expected of platform games. The tools available and the challenges set play to the uniqueness of the central mechanic and build in a way that is satisfying and original. This was the game I spent most time with. Very well done!
Great concept, well designed puzzles, nice art and polish. Very impressive in the time we had!

Braking NewsI gotta say, my favorite part about this entry is that, by having the grapple push cubes towards you as well as push you towards them, it ends up neatly fitting into both GMTK Game Jam themes so far (something you yourself seem to have noticed if one of the level names is of any indication).
Also, HOLY COW THIS WAS MADE IN TWO DAYS!? With this level of polish from both a gameplay and aesthetic level, if you told me this wasn't a game jam entry, I would 100% believed you.
Also also, that ending was terrific.
