# How do you play Stickman Hook effectively and avoid getting stuck on harder levels?

I recently started playing Stickman Hook and while the first levels are simple, I noticed the [game](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/44320/web-development-trends-that-are-changing-the-game) gets tricky pretty quickly. Sometimes my [character](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/250/html-character-entities) keeps losing momentum, or I [release](https://www.mindstick.com/news/2274/google-releases-an-update-to-chrome-os-107-that-includes-a-save-desk-for-later-option) the rope too early and fall straight down instead of swinging forward.

I would like to know if there are specific [strategies](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/85697/most-important-onboarding-strategies-for-office-employees), [tips](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/156918/7-tips-on-selecting-a-family-divorce-lawyer), or techniques to master the game. For example:

How to build and keep momentum when swinging?

Is it better to swing fast or slow when trying to land on small [platforms](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/301471/what-are-people-s-favorite-online-platforms)?

Are there common [mistakes](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/198463/5-common-design-mistakes-that-really-frustrate-your-users) [beginners](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/300589/the-basics-of-seo-for-beginners) usually make that I should avoid?

Since stickman hook is based on physics and timing, I believe there might be patterns or [tricks](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/351/tricks-to-replace-select-with-column-names) that make it easier to progress through levels without endless [trial](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1547/blackberry-trying-to-settle-shareholder-lawsuit-over-blackberry-10-to-avoid-trial) and error.

Any detailed advice from experienced players would be appreciated.
