About Hook Only
What do you do in this game?
- Get to the well with nothing but a grappling hook
- Die
- You will not lose all your progress with one mistake
- Learn to avoid obstacles through jumping, swinging, and weaving
- Die more
- Control your character with the keyboard and fire your hook with the mouse
- Improve
The trailer is all gameplay footage, minus the quick cuts and the text overlay at the end. That's how it looks, that's how it plays. (Ok. I made the lava chasing the player faster in one scene, but you don't really want that.)
There are a little over 40 levels at the time of release, some longer than others. The time that it takes to beat each level is highly dependent on player ability.
Your progress is saved at the end of every level. You may use the level select to go back and replay any level and also utilize it to return to your furthest point of progress.
The good. You should buy this game if:
-You like a challenge-
The game is hard, most people don't beat it. It is hard in a fair way, if you die it's because you sucked.
-You enjoy grappling hooks-
The grappling hook here tends to be more dynamic than some other hooks. You still have a lot of control over it, but you have to learn its ins and outs.
-You like piano music-
You won't be able to hear different music if you keep dying.
-You want a game to beat you for a change-
Even if it's just temporary.
The bad. Avoid this game if:
-You are expecting a story-
There is no explicit story in this game.
-You expect dialogue-
There is no text aside from the title screen and option menus.
-You suck-
But I know you can do it. Growth mindset.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
It's so hard, even after playing Super Meat Boy and similar stuff. It makes me feel like Jump King except it's less evil because you're not threatened by losing massive amounts of progress. The movement can be really dynamic and fun when you get the hang of it, but finishing a level still feels like a big accomplishment. The level design is interesting and varied, so the gameplay doesn't get repetitive. The character is really cute and the music adds a lot to the atmosphere.4 found this helpful
Good music, smooth gameplay. Only can blame myself for suck. Could be as good as other popular games like super meat boy. 100 deaths in and I'm still struggling. Still good.4 found this helpful
Already recommended this game to my wife's boyfriend's son, 10/103 found this helpful
My wife's boyfriend wasn't a fan of it, but I personally highly recommend it if you're a fan of challenging yet extremely satisfying games. You can tell the developer worked hard on it. I thought it was going to be a short indie game, but I'm 1.6 hours in and I've only seen 1 of the levels featured in the trailer. The soundtrack is absolutely beautiful, hope it's posted somewhere where everyone can hear it outside of the game.2 found this helpful
Overall, this is a good game. Good concept, great delivery, music and atmosphere blend really well, mechanics are definitely tough but can feel very satisfying once you get the hang of it. However, I feel the difficulty ramped up too quickly. It doesn't give the player enough time to develop their skills and learn the intricacies of the movement before being thrown into the deep end. World 2 happened too quickly, there should've been some less challenging worlds and levels before it.1 found this helpful
I'm not a platformer person, but I got the game because I like the devs other games. The gameplay is very fun, but also very difficult. Too difficult for my taste. Overall it's a good game, but I think it's mostly for people who loves hard platformers
