Rappelling is such a neat direction to take with the theme, it makes total sense and takes the easy to grasp cave environment in a new mechanical direction. I love the way the game feels to control and how it embodies the sense of slowly making your way down a rock face.\n\nMy two critiques are pretty small. One is that the audio loop is a bit clunky (and was really loud for me on the WebGL build) which could get distracting. The other is that I'd love to have some way to easily restart the climb as I got stuck halfway down with an unreachable swing and couldn't figure out a way to reset without just refreshing the page.\n\nOverall though, super impressive.
