The player character has generously offered to first find then hand-deliver the community's missing mail. The NPC's express gratitude for the effort. Even though there's a speedrun timer, taking the time to hangout with the NPCs isn't penalized.

First playthrough time was a sub-10 minute run. I'm a prolific speedrunner yaay!
Physics-based games are fun and I love flinging myself into the air, but it was a bit frustrating sometimes. I liked the other elements of the game! Music was popping and the character designs were sick yo!
Perhaps there could be some AI grapplers that are also swinging around so there is other movement going on besides your own. The collectables could've stood out more too imo.
Brain doesn't go brrr anymore it goes swinggg now
Fun once you get the "hang" of it!
Really interesting take and cohesive design!
I had a lot of fun with the grappling mechanic, though it did take some time to get used to at first. Figured it out after some a bit of time though! I'm personally not a huge fan of scavenger hunt games where I have to search for specific items, but I think the grappling mechanic was fun enough to counter that. I liked being able to fly around the area, and in doing so I would spot the items I needed!
I did encounter a small bug with the pause menu. When pausing, opening the "Options" menu, then clicking "Back" on that menu, the cursor becomes locked and I can't click on the pause menu buttons. However, it's a very small bug compared the the well functioning rest of the game!
