Play Swing Sam

Free, no sign-up. Keyboard, touch or gamepad.

How to play

  • Hold Space, Up or the mouse button to grab; let go to fling.
  • P to pause.

On touch

  • Press and hold anywhere to grab, lift to fling.

Every run starts on the title screen. Pause any time with P or the pause button; calm mode removes flashes and screen shake.

Maker’s note

The rope is rigid and gives a little push on every swing. Pegs spread out as you go, and letting go while swinging up and forward is a PERFECT release worth bonus points. Peg layout comes from a seed.
