Attention! I have stopped playing this game solely because I'm having weird slowdown issues when I move too fast or are in certain areas in the game. I'm totally sure it's not my PC, and I cannot find ways to monkey with the .exe of this to make it run in a more efficient way. If this has happened to anyone else & you fixed it let me know how, I generally really really enjoy this game but at this point the slowdowns are too much of a hinderance to ignore.

Other than that issue, what a charming & addictive little game. The art style is stellar; with this bouncy pixel look that's just detailed enough to have more style but still keeps every graphical element readable & easy to comprehend quickly on a scan. While I think at some points the movement is a little too slippery for precision platforming, I do like the grapple mechanics a lot & the bouncing mechanics brought in later give you this great sense of momentum. The music is boppin', the dialogue is funny without being overly quirked up; just generally this has a really appealing vibe & gamefeel. If I can ever get this issue resolved (or get it on another platform), I'd love to see it through. Hopefully the sequel addresses all the issues!
