It's cute. And I like the addition of the ropes. But I've played a dozon versions of this exact game before. Theres nothing really new here. That having been said, it is smoothe and well exacuted.
I have to agree with QuietIsGood. Kongregate is supposed to be about free flash games with donations being optional and weekly contests giving money to indie developers. Having pay play levels is something that MMO sites do. (Thats an insult comming from me BTW.)It is a major step in the wrong direction for Kongregate. If that is the direction Kongregate is going to go I forsee problems for it in the near future. The lots of games and not pestering for money constantly is what sets Kongregate apart from a floatilla of similar sites. If Kongregate looses this it's part of its identity then it's likely to loose a lot of fans.
It's funny when these guys describe their own game as "Addictive." The only addictive thing about this gme is the badge. (*drool* baaaaaadge...) It's not bad but I've seen a lot of this sort of game and this one isn't doing anything new and the old stuff it is doing is... boring. I must admit the physics do run very smoothly, the artwork is nice and the music is very good.
Tho poor guy died 20 years ago and was replaced by an evil look like. Leave him alone. Meanwhile I think this game has the most annoying sound effects I have heard in a very long time.
