Took me a playthrow to get the throwing mechanics down, I was trying to fling the mouse too fast. Slow and stead over the rock was the trick.

The visuals, the audio and of course the physics oriented gameplay feel really nice together.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I did find it quite difficult to actually get the people to properly fling into the mouth. I found out later that it was much easier for me if I grabbed them by their body rather than their heads. The heads are the obvious thing to grab though because of the proportions.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The people felt really &quot;heavy&quot; to drag and it was quite easy for them to kind of slip out of your control because of that weight. I had to kind of drag them back a bit before I flinged forward otherwise they wouldn't have enough momentum to get even remotely close. I also found the perspective to be somewhat confusing at first, since you're dragging left and right but there's some depth there that's hard to gauge. You do get somewhat accustomed to it over time though.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I wasn't sure if it ended at some point or not. I played it over a couple of times and enjoyed myself. It's fairly difficult but also ends up being pretty rewarding when you do start getting the hang of it. I found the satisfaction bar perhaps drains too quickly though for most people to be able to manage it without spending a fair amount of time failing (which might be frustrating to some).\r<br\/>\r<br\/>- Dylan"},{"author_name":"BUNN1E5","author_uid":"35895","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 12:45am","epoch":1440549600,"text":"Really Good.
