The blue sphere is annoying to use, because you tend to just slam into it instead of doing anything fun. I really like the orangeish ones that you swing from though those are a lot of fun.
I really like the idea of this - and getting a puzzle right has a delicious satisfaction to it. I'm not certain of the physics/how the grappling is interacting right now, but an excellent LD48 entry!
May great job playing with a portal style game, but keeping it fresh. I was able to break the game in the level just after the tutorials were complete. I fell off the first swing, but reconnected myself as I fell. I was far enough down to hit the kill volume while still being connected to the swing orb. When I respawned there were no lights just black and the orange skybox. I also could fly where ever I wanted and died after a few seconds of flying. Other than that issue well done!
great game reminds me of portal which i loved and the humor in this is great but i did come across one bug at the blue ball point when i flung up in the air i missed the other side and fell to what i though was my death but it wasn't instead i just kept falling till i closed the browser, other than that it was great.
Very slow to pick up. It would have been nice if you had more time for the real levels. The 2nd from the last was a lot of fun figuring out how to use a bunch of different spheres to get across. In a full length game, the intro levels would be a perfect amount.
The gameplay was pretty fun, but the walking sound was kind of grating after awhile. Also the ambient audio was way quieter than everything else, so some volume balance would be nice.
Cool game, loved swinging around the orange orbs. :) The gameplay could be a bit more fluid on other departments, like the blue orbs. Feels clunky. But still a fun game :)
Very quirky and fun. The swinging mechanic is very wonky and troublesome to get used to, but once you do get used to it, it's pretty fun.

Wow, very cool game :) One of my favourites so far :D The atmosphere was great, the light, the sounds, the mechanics especially! 5 in innovation and mood! and also... SPOILER ALERT: the text in the last level (congratulations/end screen level) says: htmpxyz.wix.com/alpha (a link to your website, right?)
Impressive for 48 hours. Impressive physics / lighting / humor (not sure how much of that is Unity though). Glad to have sound, even if it was rather sharp. Reminds me of Portal, which is always a plus (and I think was the intent?).
Haha, I had tried to be not that "portal" style, but when I came to black/white blocks, it automatically goes that way. Maybe it's because of the programmer's art, maybe it's just portal had given me quite an impression. :)
Nice portal-like game, especially for only 48 hours. Had a bit of trouble with swinging also but it's really a great start for a more polished post compo version. Congrats!
Interesting entry. Great mood. Very difficult to play with my French keyboard. It might be great with also standard arrows control for a better playability.
Nice puzzle mechanics, but the game felt really slow. Also, I was really disappointed to see that when I landed on the orange floor thing in the switch level, then turned around and walked away from green door and went to the end, nothing really happened except me falling. And it didn't restart or anything, so I had to start over.
Still, managed to complete it, though it took me a few tries to land on the faraway block in the congratulations level. ^^"

I agree with the others, the swings were the most fun things to use.
Now I'm working on a Post-LD version and will post here after 15 days. It will provide much more fun by then.
Great little game.
Physics are always a treat!
Congrats!

I will try to upload a new polished post-compo version in two days.
And this one will have a cake :)
New levels, new Big Boss, and a Cake!
