Hanger is a fun, gruesome physics Time Waster

The rules for Hanger are quite simple: You've got to reach the end of each level merely by swinging back and forth and grappling with your rope. You use LEFT and RIGHT to swing back and forth; once you gather enough momentum, hit SPACE to let go and fling yourself on; then hit SPACE again to latch onto the ceiling once more.

Careful, though: If you swing too high and hit the ceiling, you start losing body parts. The legs go first, then the arms, and then a few other random tidbits. That's where the gore comes in - when you lose a body part, you start bleeding. But it's not that bad really: You can keep on playing right until you lose all body parts, and there's no time pressure.

It takes a few minutes to master the physics of the game, but it's really quite fun once you get the hang of it (see what I did there?).

ed note: am I the only one who wants to see the Black Knight scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail now? I didn't think so. YouTube clip after the break!
