I love your graphics, and the stretching perspective as a play on gravity is really unique!

awesome retro graphics with a great twist in gameplay. very fun puzzle platformer
Cool use of the theme for a puzzle mechanic.
Great graphics love the first couple of levels - but unfortunately I get stuck on this door. I try putting the key down to unlock but nothing happens. Great fun and interesting use of camera stretch!

Heh, nice twist on the gravity mechanic
Same as above, got stuck with the door. Tried getting there without a key, tried throwing the key at it, laying it there, but nothing happened.
Really appreciate the feedback! I definitely should have explained the mechanics a bit more. @firellon @clymm I've added a little visual explanation of what can be done to solve this in the body text of the game above , and for anyone else that gets stuck :)
Very original entry. I wish it was displayed more clearly visually when the key and keyhole are the same size.
This game is really mind bending - the puzzle mechanics are really cool and inventive. I'm not sure I totally got my head around "if I want to do this, I need to do x y z" but managed to get a decent enough feel for it without having a full understanding of it to reach the end!
All in all, a solid entry and some excellent puzzle design!
This has got to be the cleverest little puzzle game I've seen in years!! Genuinely mind bending, genious use of the theme, puzzles were novel and made me think!! This one is a winner.
Oh this is genius!! Not too difficult either, it's a lovely little puzzler. Loved the purple orbs, they kinda flipped what I thought I knew upside down.... or squished what I thought I knew. x3
This is especially great for a first jam entry! Super creative, props to you! :)
super cute the way the screen changes based on heigh was real trippy and so cool i loved it super fun to just jump around even! that was a super cool experience!
Beat the game, it was fun and chill! The music is good! Looks like you need to fix collisions for your character, he fits through small holes even in bigger size.
I laughed SO MUCH when i use the planet for the first time, that was amazing ! The gamedesign idea is so good i would love to play more puzzles like these. Graphics are ultra cute i love em, the music is quite simple but fits well and the sound design is good !
Thanks everyone so much for the kind feedback!
@a0405u Awesome thanks for finding and reporting that bug - I have fixed that and uploaded a new build.
Amazing puzzles, they were very interesting to solve, and due to the fact that new mechanics appear gradually, there are no problems understanding them, very worthy!
Very cool mechanic, the front page gif sold me. I'm sure designing puzzles for this was a challenge! I was able to made it back to my bed! :)
One core idea, but so many clever puzzles built around it! Really cool how the background and music complement the gameplay. It also gave me some strong “Superliminal” vibes — loved that!
Super cool mechanics! I love this silly little game. The key mechanic of this game is really suprising and innovative to me. Yeah and it also reminds me of superliminal in a good way.
I love gems like these. This is one of the most interesting games I have seen in a while. Love the idea for the mechanic here, easy to pick up and get and very forgiving, and yet fun and engaging. Easily one of the games that made the best spin on the concept of depth here, and love the touch of carrying the planet keeping your gravity constant. The sound design is great also, it does feel like a space adventure.
Wow, this is mind blowing! I got stuck in the second level with the purple planet but it was such a fun experience!
Awesome game!
Very cool concept! My playthrough: https://youtu.be/NIJ9OyUQ_4Y
I got a bit stuck on the door puzzle at first, but I figured it out. Definitely one of the most original uses of the theme I’ve seen on this jam. Nice work :)
It took me a while to get my head around but what a cool concept! And really fun to try and work out how to solve puzzles once you understand what you're doing. Really loved the perspective, sound and art. Great work!
