Gameplay is extremely fun (apart from one thing which im about to unleash 5 years of pent up anger towards) there's tight 4 star times to get on each level, or you can just casually swing your way through various environments, from flying pizzas to arcade machines, there's no lack of variety or ideas when it comes to verlet, it certainly delivers and feels great to fly around and enjoy.

Verlet swing is a grapple game, with some trippy and dream like visuals to match, with 100 stages to swing ya way through!
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Despite the lack of premise, Verlet Swing still does a good job setting the mood with its psychedelic landscapes and spacy soundtrack, making it feel like the game mainlined a pile of vapourwave playlists from Youtube.
