Yeah, I figured I was treating it a bit too much like Super Meat Boy, and Gravity Express isn't meant for speedrunning levels without pausing lol

Hmm, one thing I've noticed is when you hit “restart level” it seems to not fully reset the level (e.g. the auto-moving barriers) which makes it hard to quickly complete levels via muscle-memory. For instance on level 7, these screenshots are directly sequential runs, but the barriers are in completely different positions: Run 1 (freshly entered level), Run 2 (hit “restart level” once)—note that I would've made it through the second time if the position had also reset; or perhaps the start position is the same but the sequence of movements is random every time which has the same result
Fantastic game, very tight controls and feels as polished as any game with a similar scope I've played. Gravity and the ship's acceleration feel perfectly fine-tuned to feel “natural”. The full motion video is a bit gimmicky but is fun and adds extra onto what would've already been great game. Highly recommended, certainly worth the asking price.
Despite the crank controls currently being “experimental” they're fantastic, far more precise and intuitive to use than D pad controls IMO.
Interesting, often pretty simple to beat, but since it's randomized the difficulty can massively vary. Once you play it a lot then it remains easy though; I wish there was options for more board sizes and other modifiers. I also wish there was the ability to mark cards with numbers. I absolutely love the artwork in it, certainly the best part of the game.
Surprisingly difficult Game & Watch style game. Very polished, even in the menus. The difficulty increase each level feels perfect, and I appreciate that the main game's levels aren't randomly generated so you know they're actually possible. Endless is incredibly difficult though…
Love the feel of using the crank to control the trapdoors, it feels like just the right amount of cranking. I like that it comes with the soundtrack too!
Highly recommend.
