When a game called Hang On features a lonely mountain cabin on its title screen, you know that it won't talk about telephone queues. Don't worry though, this lighthearted adventure won't involve any woman falling to her death because of a defective harness.

Short, sweet and charming. My 7 year old also played through it and very much enjoyed!
Had fun playing this, well written, charming and looks great. I feel like some atmospheric background noise or music would make it feel truly complete. Good stuff!
Hang On is no old Motocycle racing game but a nice and short adventure game with a fun story about a kleptomaniac yeti sabotaging a cable car just when one of the two playable characters happens to be in the cable car.
The puzzles are fun to solve and every riddle has some explanation to it to get you on track for it. If only the game had a soundtrack or some ambient sounds.
I made a longplay of Hang On, you can find it here:

Hang On is easy on the eye and on the player. The simple yet charming style fits the game quite well - it reminds me of a bedtime story. Definitely a game I could play with my nephews.
Good job!
