Due to the game’s terrible controls I simply hadn’t realized you could in fact swing the rope like in most games with ropes.
There is a vaguely interesting reversed gravity puzzle now.
I’m mostly playing based on sunk cost fallacy by this point, coupled with having experienced one or two promising physics puzzles that were better than the preceding slog, plus a not entirely uninteresting forced walking on a conveyor belt puzzle.
The first hour or so of the essentially bad game carries it on atmosphere alone, which is quite an achievement.
I’ll write down my final thoughts once I presumably reach that mulling woman my character probably wants to impale and devour or some such.
