Energy Hook

still feels unfinished, even though solid web slinging mechanics are there maps range from decent to awful, dont feel like they were designed for the game and all are tiny walls running mecahnics and jetpack are buggy and awful no re bindable controls suggestion even though this game hasnt been updated in two years: add mag boots to run along walls better and get rid of all of the ledges in the buldings.

A comparison: I 100% completed Marvel's Spider-Man on PS4. It's a really fun, ultra-refined, beautiful looking game that deserves the acclaim it got on a mechanical level. I don't know enough about the Spider-Man IP to talk about it as an extension of that but the overall smooth, pleasing feel of swinging around and beating up thugs was compelling enough to push me through every speck of major content. Now that it's coming to PC, Energy Hook is bound to suffer in comparison. It's a humble, barebones game, not in itself a flaw but it has led to a few frustrating moments with out-of-place ledges and high speed swings that send the player flying off the small maps. A huge title like Spider-Man doesn't have these issues and the overall experience is far more beginner friendly because of its unobtrusive flow and easier controls. So why write about a six-year-old game with very few reviews? Because, despite its rough elements, Energy Hook needs more attention for what it gets right about the web-slinging conceit now that its glossy, expensive counterpart is making its way to Steam. As good as the web-slinging in the new Spider-Man is, its just a hair off of perfect in my opinion. Pete…

only for truly cracked individuals YOU ARE NOT SPIDERMAN IN THIS GAME AND YOU NEED TO GIT GUDDD

pure fun and joy swinging around, nothing else to worry about doing other than having fun, love it (also works great on steam deck!)

Its alright

this game is too underated and deserves a lot more attention because the gameplay is very fun and you can do all sorts of tricks and it takes some time getting used to the mechanics but once you get the hang of it its really interesting and fun. Over all i reccomend this game to players who want to have a spider man like exxperience with parkour and swining.
