Description

Test your swimming skills with this ragdoll physics game by controlling only your arms.  Can you make it all the way down to the treasure?

This game is inspired by the great Bennett Foddy who created games such as 'QWOP' and 'Getting Over It'.  Therefore this game falls in the category "Rage Game" and it's not for the entertainment of everyone.
