Tip: Release at midswing instead of at the end.

After weeks of coding and developing, it's finally out!
Instructions are in game. I hope you enjoy!

i love these games but, the only thing i didn't like was it was too hard! when you fling u come flying down you need to make him go slower way to hard but otherwise great game.

"great concept - too difficult"

date: September 9, 2007

I find it easier when you latch on almost right above your dude.
This induces a much more controlled swing.

But there are areas you cannot latch on to - and this technique fails.
Good game - needs a hud and you should be able to swing backwards,

"This game's general concept is great"

date: September 5, 2007

However, the one problem I find is that it's just far far far too fast! Zoooom

"A good idea, but it needs some work."

date: November 7, 2006

This has been said in other reviews, but it bears repeating. The character's movement after releasing the rope is really wrong. It looks like you are multiplying the swing speed by the amount of vertical movement, which just doesn't work very well. This also doesn't make the game very playable.

The game itself has a lot of potential. I love the idea of swinging between things and I have played many many times, but since it's so danged hard to do it properly, I couldn't even complete level 1 on the easy skill level.

Also, why on earth can I fly so far up through the ceiling? Not only does thta not make sense, but it makes throwing the rope to catch yourself again nigh-impossible. If you want to keep the "through the roof" ability, add some kind of hud that tells the player how far off screen they have gone so they at least have a chance of living through the fall.

Also, I applaud your attepts to keep the filesize down, but don't compress the audio so much. It sounds terrible.

Kepe up the good work. I hope to see an updated version of "Just Hangin' Around" soon.
