Nice sound, shadows and general atmosphere, great mechanic, slowing time when rotating maybe great, and maybe putting a character.

Neat game! There's not much graphic here, but what is there is very effective, especially combined with the lighting! Same goes with the audio, the background music just enough to provide ambient but not too much to disrupt my brain so I can still think.  Sound effects are good, but I could use one more sound when I successfully land my block on the target to go to the next level? 

For some reason, feels like the first spike is very touchy and easily kills me more than any other one in the other levels.  Was that intentional or am I just that terrible at platforming?  Anyways, I enjoyed the rotating aspect of the game and noticed that I really need to take a second to remind myself what direction to push immediately afterwards before I even push the "R" button.  :)

Clever idea. I like how you integrated the controls within the game. I think I must have a poor sense of space though : a few levels in, I struggled to get past the second level with spikes, in which you rotate to avoid the spikes; however, it did keep me playing! Very addictive. Maybe add a little pause or slow the box while the world rotates? Anyway - good job, unique idea, fun game, good music! Thanks for sharing!

Nice little idea! Great level design that really uses the rotating-world mechanic. Have you considered - when rotating, the world retains the horizontal direction so that there is only a vertical reversal? I think this would help with the controls while still retaining the concept of manipulating the world.

Great game! Very interesting concept and cool lighting. I'd maybe touch up the gravity when flipping the screen (goes from fast to floaty).

Wow, really great game.

I like that your first few levels serve as the tutorial. Never been a fan of reading pages of instructions.

Lots of fun to play and it looks great.

The lighting adds a lot.

Nice Job!
