Really fun to play and just the right amount of challenge to not make it too easy but also not too difficult

Very fun game! I included it in my Time Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

This is fun and addictive!  Really like how you used the sound to keep track of the time!

My only tips would be to check the hitboxes, because sometimes they are a little too big, and the start screen! If you start by clicking with the mouse, the controls don't work.

Overall, nice work!

That was really fun, i love the design of the character so cute and unbothered x) i struggled with the controls too  but once i found the comment about not clicking on the menu it worked great, i think you should add it to the description with the comment about clicking space on the menu. Great game !

The controls didn't work for some reason.

I liked the idea of time controlling your gravity but I had a problem with the game not switching the gravity exactly with the sound effect and making me die by falling off platforms. Nice game though!

I like this kind of game, effective and addictive. I have done it several times. The design is pretty!

About time, I spent a lot of time taking it rather than running away from it.

Either way, nicely done.

Nice job!

Here's your "Thank you!" coupon from someone who was obsessed with playing Gravity Guy on his phone 10 years ago (unbelievable how it was so long ago).

Though I feel like this entry would be even better if you had a bit more moments where you actually  feel like time is being against you, because most of the time this was more of a waiting game for me.

I loved the idea!

The physics can be polished, and I don't see how the limitation got applied; but overall, it was fun!

Thanks! I ended up having very limited time to make the game so I wasn't able to polish it quite as much as I wanted, but thats how game jams go I guess. I tried to go with more of a short looping timer limitation rather than something more traditional because I had way more ideas for a short cyclical timer than a long one where the game ends when it runs out. It's definitely a more loose implementation of a time limit, but it's the concept I had the most ideas for so I went with it even if it costs me some points in the ratings. Thanks for the feedback!
