About Tail Swing

Tail Swing is a sticky tail works like a grappling rope: swinging is easy to start, but releasing at the right angle decides whether you reach the next anchor. The tail attaches to glowing anchor points and works like a pendulum. Learning when to detach matters more than swinging indefinitely; the next hook must be reachable before the arc drops.

How to Play Tail Swing

  • Hold the mouse or Space to latch the tail onto a nearby anchor.
  • Let the stickman swing and build speed.
  • Release as the body starts moving toward the next gap.
  • Grab another anchor and continue toward the exit.

Controls

  • Attach tail and swing: Hold left-click / Space
  • Let go and fly forward: Release

  • Wait for maximum swing speed before attempting a long transfer.
  • Look for the next attachment point before letting go.
  • Avoid releasing while the character is moving backward.
  • Use shorter swings to correct your path through cramped sections.
