This game has very nice background visuals and a overall nice looking tile-set with cool and simple looking graphics.
However, the controls at the start of the game are so stiff and restricting and then become way to fast and jittery when the upgrades are obtained, your movement speed becomes so quick and off putting. It works well when your jumping from pillar to pillar over large chasms but when you fall all the way down it feels horrible when your grabbing onto ledges and you fly off if a different direction then intended.
The Jumping is fine but feels very sluggish compared to your horizontal moving speed.
The gloves aren't to bad but personally I think you should have done the autograb similar to the end is nigh instead of having to hold a direction to grab onto a ledge.
And hey, I myself have had trouble making tight controlling games in the past, practice makes perfect and I hope my words are more helpful then discouraging. Take care :)
