Pretty cool game. It's hard but very unique concept. Definitely need a lot of wisdom to beat these levels. Well done!

Really interesting game. Good fun, great concept. But, incredibly difficult. Perhaps someway of correcting a mistaken trajectory or slowing down your speed to make it a bit easier and making the targets larger as well. Sound design is perfect and the music really suits the style of the game, though does become a little repetitive after a while. Really well done.

A Measure of JazzLove this game. Had an idea similar to this, but didn't know how to implement it well. This had great aesthetics, great mechanics, and great sound design, but all kept very simple which I like. My only complaint is just how difficult it is, but tuning that takes a while for a physics based game like this.

Weight WalkerGreat game! Only complaint is that this is not how physics works in real life haha

A Measure of JazzIt was hard, but successful run was very satisfying. It lacked some music but overall polish was very good!

Cursed AlchemyHighly original. The control scheme is something I have never seen before, and a really great use of the limitation. The "game juice" (sound effects, trails, etc.) is all pitch-perfect. I particularly like the gentle motion and the soft ping as the player enters the atmosphere of the target planet.
The game is, however, very difficult. :)

The Education of AelfgifuAwesome game really cool mechanic reminds me of a gravity sim I had to do in science class. Yours was a lot more fun though. :-)

Weight Watchers (Mini jam 75)Very fun - finished all apart from level 8 obviously. Simple, and more importantly intuitive, mechanics that are well built on by the end of the game. Straightforward style suits the game well - this might make a good mobile game in face! Enjoyed it a lot, great job!

ReDiscoveryVery cool concept! I enjoyed playing it. The use of the limitation was well executed as well. The art is also very cool!

Judgement of the DeadNice mechanics and visuals. And the controls are very accessible. Colectables look sus...

Gondola's ShopSimple and beautiful game!
It was quite difficult for me. I think it would have been more controllable if there were auxiliary lines to indicate my direction of travel and a way to quickly eliminate gravity. But maybe it's the difficulty that makes it fun.

Weight of the SoulThank you! It is a pretty hard game. I agree that auxiliary lines would have been a good option to explore but I couldn't decide on how to go about implementing them. One of my friends also suggested an input that would quickly decrease weight but I thought that was a big part of the challenge of the game.
Thank you for your feedback!
Woah, this was good. Hard, but good. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to pick up the astronauts, so I didn't :)
