Swingy boy

Short description

This is a game about a small blob who has to traverse the cave but all he has is a grappling hook. The swinging of the hook is supposed to simulate swinging it in real life so you need to move your mouse just as you would swing a hook on a rope.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by the $5.99 launch price — there is not enough price history for this game to weight the copies by what they actually sold for. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
