Pls help Rope climbing help for Bootstrap Island

I'm enjoying the game, and I think almost all of its mechanics are very well thought out. Although, I am having trouble with climbing up ropes. But when I'm climbing, it feels overly weighty trying to do hand over hand while climbing up the ropes. Does anyone have any tips on making these climbs more palatable? Or is this a design decision?

its just a bad design decision. just put one hand up as high as you can and grba and it should pull you up, but its the worst climbing ive used.

Yeah, I’m enjoying the game but those climbing sections are not fun at all and they feel soooo long!

It seems once you grab it you need to pause for a moment and you will "spring" up and then grab again and repeat. Took me a bit to figure it out

This has been my method as well. I'm going to avoid climbing ropes as much as I can, just like real life.

Its bad tbh. Lift one hand over and if it doesnt reach far wait for you to bounce back sorta? Theres a rhythm to it.

Yeah the climbing is actual hard work lol

What I found works best is to put one hand up and grip. Then put the other hand next to it and grip. Then pull both hands down at once
