quite complex mechanics but i liked it!

The game's simple with the graphics, and the gameplay mechanics is somewhat unique :D

gravity reversed, aaaah :D that came unexpected! great fun!

Solid platforming, that's one nice, satisfying jump you have there!

ocmu29 Apr 2013, 16:23

Clever concept and very well executed.

Interesting, fun and beautiful, good job! You could just smooth a bit the player movement and the gameplay would be perfect

Nice one! I really like the concept. Hope you'll continue work on it.

Liked the style- and the difficulty curve. You can kinda cheat on level nine jumping over the first black block, unless that's what you're supposed to do. :D

Nice idea (:
Few little things could be improved to help the player understand what is going on, thus making the game more fun:
- put an indication (arrow) when picking a box will change gravity, and in which direction
- indicate deadly pit with maybe spikes or circular saw.. something deadly. because sometimes, because of scolling you don't know it's a deadly pit.
- being able to zoom out so you can plan your action ahead to solve the puzzle
- when you are in reversed gravity, maybe jumping with down arrow instead of up

Cool puzzler overall (:

Really unique mechanics, and the platforming felt great. Good job!

Platforming stripped to the basics, and some nice mechanics implemented.

Great job! :)

Very clever level design. It took me a little while to really understand the mechanics, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the game. Overall, great job!
