Wow what a concept. I really enjoyed playing this one. What a unique player controller or mechanic I should say. Cool work great job.

Why does Yoyo Knight hates pigs?

Super unique and clever, I like it!

Designed well, even though it took me some time to adjust to the controls but it makes sense when introducing a new mechanic. All in all, well done! :)

This is one of the most unique and clever game mechanics I've seen yet this jam. Nice work!

ITS YOYO TIME, HAHAHAH. The different voice lines at the end of the level made me laugh every single time. I also love the name "Oyoy."  This was an absolute blast to play. The mechanic is super unique, and the yoyo feels super satisfying. It really reminds me of the yoyo in Terraria, which I absolutely love. 

The only "negative" I noticed was that there's sometimes a small lag when killing an enemy.

Besides that, this is overall an awesome start for a full game, if you plan to expand on it. 

Good job, guys!

Amazing idea! Reminds me of the yoyo from Animal Well (a game launched this year). You improved the concept even more and proved it has a lot to explore!

I died so many times and then got so hype after beating level 1 haha! Such a great polished game with awesome visuals, sound effects, music - major props!! I'm also inspired by how y'all did the tutorial; I will be taking notes!

Truly the Dark Souls of yoyo platformers. Great art style reminded me of the old NES and SNES games. Fantastic job
