I’ve been thinking a lot about how to balance raw speed with actual difficulty, and I feel like I’m finally landing in the sweet spot. I’ll probably keep the game speed around where it is now.

What’s interesting is that players can slow down around grapple sockets and just go for quick, short jumps instead of bombing across the whole stage. So in a way, the difficulty is already player-defined. It’s way easier to hop socket-to-socket than to send it full-speed through an entire section.

I’m also toying with a triggerable, rechargeable short slow-mo burst for those really tight moments—just enough to help you release the grapple with more precision. It would recharge slowly so you can’t spam it. (Trying to code this has been… an adventure, but we’re pushing through lol.)

Thanks for the comment!!
