Hook, Line & Sinker
NOTE: If you're having issues with framerate, try changing your browser. I originally used Firefox and had a consistently low framerate. But after changing to Google Chrome, the FPS increased dramatically to a steady-ish 60.
Hook, Line & Sinker is an action platformer where the only weapon is a grappling hook. Players zip across the stage, gaining momentum to smash into enemy units and gain the highest kill count possible.
That about sums up the game, really. I'm just uploading it here so people would be able to playtest the game. Speaking of playtesting, I really would appreciate it if you sent me your feedback. Any bit of criticism will help. My contacts are @largemem on LINE and 'Adam G.#4096' on Discord. So yeah, that's about it. Toodles.

Well good job, I think it's polished.
But there's something that I think it need to be fixed.
First, the learning curve. You should make a level design that can give player a Indirect Tutorial. Try this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZH2wGpEZVgE
Second, the hook mechanic. Your game have great core mechanic for your game foundation. But unfortunately, I think the control is clunky and not really practical. I think it should be : 1) Click to hook, 2) Hold to swing, 3) Release click to release hook. Try playing Spiderman or Tomba 2's grappling hook. And I think it should use Spike everytime the player swinging
That's it, happy developing :)
Thank you so much for the constructive criticism! I'm actually ecstatic to read your comment since people have been downvoting my game and I never knew why. Not a great feeling, I have to say. So again, thank you. I finally know what needs to be fixed.
