Suggestion: grappling blocks #134

I made a quick mod where the grappling hook is able to grapple onto blocks (it only grabs them when you retract the hook). It turns out to be very fun, it would be cool to have in-game. https://github.com/landgreen/n-gon/assets/90143063/417c49e7-cea0-4509-83af-fe659ef6b03e

Cool

landgreen commented 7 months ago

hmmm that looks cool and fun. I'd need to try it out to see if it elevates gameplay. If you can use this to do skillful things it might worth it.

I think the thing it helps with most is getting over ledges that have no roof. Normally it can be hard to do that if it isn't very tall so you can't get much momentum to propel yourself over, so this way you could toss a block up to grab on to midair and get over. (Also it's cool to feel like Thor and throw something that propels you into flight)
