This is an amazing example of “following the fun.” You worked with the game to create the most entertaining outcome and did not get that typical gamedev tunnel vision. Excellent game and excellent execution!

This game looks great. Another entertaining video, that’s not too long or too short that also contains some useful tidbits of gamedev information (such as the springy joints). Well done.

The way I'd handle the snapping issue is by setting the tolerance of the joint component when you click, so the allowed length changes based off of how far you are when you first click

Tom Francis, the creator of Gunpoint, also made a game like this back in 2014 called "Floating Point". This type of concept is really enjoyable. I'd love to see a full game with this mechanic fleshed out one day, preferably with ninjas..

Hello, great video. And as for the problem you had with the soft body. The probably probably was that you didn’t connect each spring join to every other and not just the two beside it.
