Such a beautiful game! You perfectly balanced the weight-shifting mechanic and the simplicity of the aesthetic. It felt real, narrative and gameplay-wise. Here's a link to my playthrough... https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1646685935?t=00h38m58s

insanely cool, slow and steady wins the race - but I can't help but trying to speed run it everytime x_x.  Would be interesting to have some obstacle like birds or something that you can dodge when you are halfway across (for the MLG players haha) 

For some reason I forgot to read the description so I was also confused about how to start.

I thought it was really well balanced (ha! Sorry...) and generous, if you are patient (I had to pull some patience out of the ether because I'm not sure I would want to play again if I got very far and then died; I was determined to play once and get to the end and I did). I went back afterwards to see what happens when you fall. Hectic.

The audio is very, very good and I like that it's dynamic. I also liked that the camera moved a few times to mix it up a bit visually (although that switch at ~100m is nasty until you get used to it!). I love the art, it's just unfortunate that you spend most of the time looking at the UI and marker instead of the art and animation. I did also notice that the movement didn't always match what I was actually doing.

A couple of minor points and bugs - you can walk backwards at the start (possibly to infinity?, although I didn't go that far) and there's no walk cycle for moving backwards; some of the audio needs normalising and there was a bit of clipping towards the end (plus one loop in the final(?) section of the line has a volume burst that's jarring); and no credits for the samples used in the audio?

Overall, however, a really cool idea and very well executed, plus it's perfect for the theme - I will not ever be doing this in real life. Well done!

Really neat game!

I had an issue at the start for the first 2-3 games, I didn't realise that you wanted me to press left/right and cross the 2 lines before allowing me to move forward. Apart from that issue and a bit of physics/jiggling on the character I enjoyed it.

4/5 Splines approved.

Really enjoyed the game, kept on retrying several times, and I'm proud to say that I made it across haha. Very well done, amazing scene, love the dynamic sound, and the feel and controls are superb. Well done!

this game was such a unique experience and one that had me cursing at my screen every time I got to impatient😅, the visuals and audio felt similar to journey and made me feel at peace even several hundred meters above the ground. 

Some really cool mechanics and dynamic animations. Good Job <3

Really stressful! The way the camera moves and the sound of the music / ambience gives a real sense of actually being there, especially the camera swinging around when the rope swings. 

The UI / instructions were a bit confusing. E.g. at first I couldn't figure out how to move forward; I had to watch the video to see that the game wanted me to angle to the right and left before I was allowed to go onward. Also, the curved line seems to be the area in which I need to keep my little marker, but there were quite a few moments where the character's animations didn't seem to match where I was on the curved line; e.g. I tried to keep the marker in the middle of the curve, but sometimes it felt like that wasn't the best action to take. I.e. A bit unclear where I wanted my marker for the best result. I also wasn't entirely sure what caused the curved line to become shorter. It seemed correlated to my walking speed, but not always.

Basically, a few instructions might have been helpful here. But overall, the game feels very raw and real, and the balancing feels very natural (the way you can get into a swing from right to left in an attempt to balance, for example) and just generally fantastic. And yet, it's still easier than it would be in real life!

Awesome game! It really captures the nerves that highliners must feel, and the art and audio were absolutely delicious, and the concept is really unique.

The pacing was great with the camera and music changes, but if I had to restart from 75% completion I'm not sure I would because of how much time it took and how stressful it was. Following the UI got difficult at points, and a little more reward for finishing it would have been great!

I really enjoyed this and made a little sketch in Pen to Paper for it
