Took me a second to realize I'd become horizontal, but once I figured it out, I laughed. Very short, but entertaining. Good job!

Neat little puzzle. You should make more levels.

taro 2013-04-29 04:41

That was quite an incredible experience! And also very disorienting...

Criticisms: the controls felt odd when ending up sideways. I also suffered from the same problem stevejohnson had, too.

Awesome concept

I particularly found the controls a little bit confusing, but the idea is just awesome!

I really liked the game while it lasted. It only took me around 10-20 seconds to complete the level. I had fun and liked the solid controls, physics and mechanics (one way platforms + changing the y-axis). Overall it is a good experience and although these mechanics were used previously in other platformers, I felt you used them well in new innovative ways to create a fun experience.

Short game but clever.

Heh, when the character turned horizontal I thought he had died. Good game!

Short, sweet and super well done!

Great graphics and fun puzzle, it'd be great to see more. Well done!

Simple and clever. I think adding a "head" would have helped me; I figured out that I flipped, but I wasn't sure which way.

art is great (given this minimalist theme). music sounded creepy to me lol but it's good! enjoyed the puzzle man you should make more. Great game!

Too Short, i'd like to play more level
Good concept

jomomomo 2013-05-01 15:28

Great job. Just... great job. Add more levels -- that was fun!

georgebroussard 2013-05-02 09:03

Interesting idea. Should pursue it.

jhelle 2013-05-02 15:26

Would love to see it a bit more expanded :p

Excellent job.. very clever mechanic changing gravity and rotation of player. Needs more levels after and perhaps a simpler level one. A multiplayer version would be hilarious on a TV/Console

smilingcat 2013-05-06 23:21

Lol, I thought I had died when I reached the green particles, like maybe they were poison or something. Then I realized the game had just gone sideways on me.

joe40001 2013-05-07 02:32

Very neat

minionstudios 2013-05-07 17:03

Very smooth and fun game play! Way too short (no pun intended)

depp 2013-05-07 19:41

Lovely game, wish it was a little longer.

johnfn 2013-05-08 05:31

Fun but of course too short. The controls were a little wacky as well, but I enjoyed it anyways.

messiano 2013-05-11 20:46

Awesome concept, too bad it was way too short :). Gravity change was a blast!

euske 2013-05-12 11:07

Reminds me a bit of Thomas was Alone. Good job!

brighterorange 2013-05-12 13:49

Loved the music. As soon as the cloud made me rotate I got excited that the game was going to be pretty complex, all in that room. Alas, that was almost the end. It would have been cool if I had to play it in every direction or something! I had a lot of fun in the short game anyway. Boy can I jump high!

evildan 2013-05-15 00:51

Thanks for playing the game everybody! My next game will be even shorter! (just kidding)

bvanschooten 2013-05-17 22:54

Interesting concept, transforming in different ways to get to different parts. The game feels solid, only it's a little too short. I think the controls are a mistake, simply use absolute directions instead.

evildan 2013-05-18 00:30

@bvanschooten -
Do you mean when the level goes sideways to have LEFT be the jump button, and UP and DOWN to move on the platforms?

Hmmm, that might resolve the issue... I'll have to give that a try and see if that works.

Thanks for the feedback!
