Amazing take on gravity and platforming! The levels are well done with the music, sound effects, and textures adding to the immersion. I can't wait to finish it

That's a cool mechanic, it reminds me of Gravity Man stage in MM. BTW I got stuck in level 4 I think (the first level that has enemies). I defeated them but couldn't get to the goal and couldn't reset the level haha.

Developer

Hey hey thanks, glad you like the mechanic. You can reset the level with Enter but I did wish after publishing it that I had maybe added a reminder of that within each level when needed!

Great game! I absolutely loved the gameplay, especially the actiony platform that involved timely switches between the two states. If you're interested in checking out some gameplay, I streamed it:
