This is great! Starting another game, it seems that I have to hit ESC which takes me out of fullscreen. I wish that hitting "S" would start a new game. I don't want to take my hands off the keyboard and put it on the mouse.
Things get pretty manic in a hurry! Sometimes the crane chain feels like it could be a bit long, maybe if you could also extend/retract the chain a little bit with a and z.
Thanks a lot! And congrats on being top of the table! I was just updating the game as you commented, so I've now added "S" to start the game. I'll add extending/retracting the rope to my list. Cheers!
Awesome! I find myself laughing every time something goes overboard!
Here's a gameplay video up to level 8
Well played, I think you're place at the top is secured! Maybe you can get a job offloading Amazon packages! :) ( I think I might need to tweak the Crashed Magazines to make them more balanced).
