Tried it and it's basically Gorn's movement (grab-to-move) with lower gravity. I don't see anything new in terms of locomotion. Please correct me if I have misunderstood.
I'm not against making a melee game with grab-to-move mechanic. Quite the opposite, I'd love to see more melee games with different setting.
However although I love Gorn's locomotion, be aware that it had been criticized heavily on release and they're forced to include thumbstick control.
Wish you luck in future development.
