Grappling hook/Ninja rope

[BloodyBane]

I saw this on your website, and just wanted to ask some questions about it. From all the stuff you guys seem to want to do, I'd expect the grappling system to be pretty fluid and cool looking, and what I want to know is if the grappling will just be a line that drags you to the point of contact, or if it'll have some kind of realistic physics, like you throwing it on and ledge and can climb up it, get it stuck on a overhead block and can swing from place to place, use it as an emergency maneuver if you accidentally fell, or even be a bamf and jump from a ledge, throw the hook mid fall, and use the momentum to swing yourself somewhere real far.

It should act up "the realistic way".

I think it will act similar to the Starbound grappling hook (The best hook of all 2D survival games) or rope, where you shoot or throw it, swing on it, and raise and lower yourself. One of my favorite things about Starbound was some of the detail, like how the line of the grappling hook would bend around blocks that were obstructing it, just like a rope IRL.

Onilink already has made a prototype for the hook for years, it just hasn't been integrated into the game (which is actually probably the harder part).
