You’re greeted by a robot named Dron who proceeds to teach you how to play the game. The Cyber Hook demo begins with you being dropped into a lovely, neon-soaked cyberspace area. While Clustertruck is built around moving across the tops of speeding vehicles, this game, as I said earlier, is based around swinging from platforms.

This game does certainly have that one thing in common, but otherwise, the gameplay is quite different. When I first laid eyes on Cyber Hook, it was billed as a “ Clustertruck-like.” That means it’s all about racing from one end of a level to another.

I was able to check out a short demo of the game, and, while I do have some issues with the way it plays, I still had a good time swinging from place to place. Cyber Hook, a game developed by Blazing Stick and due out early next year, is designed around swinging.

Whether I’m flying, swinging from buildings, or climbing surfaces, that sense of freedom and exhilaration is one of the best things a game can strive for. There are few things I love more than freely moving around in games.
