The overall design of this was good and played pretty well, the only thing I would suggest is to add more input feedback like character animations for using items.
This was a cool approach to the theme and I enjoyed the use of physics in it. The only thing I was having trouble with was not being able to move if you were next to a wall.
I really liked the swinging mechanic and the animations that came with it. The only thing I felt weird about was being able to turn the camera slightly upside down.
