Looks Like Web Version Is Broken, Would Fix But Running Out OF Time

Download on itchio for a non-broken version

The mechanic is very original and interesting, but the controls are a tad confusing. when i press space i expect my character to jump but it's on W, needs a LOT of getting used to. other than that a very enjoyable puzzle!

The web version worked for me in Chrome; I see what you were going for here. I wanted the controls for jumping and inverting polarity to be switched, as spacebar is typically jump for keyboard platform games.

Overall very good! bit tricky to get use to the controls and when changing modes there isnt much feedback besides the head band but other than that nicely done, very interesting and unique idea! Very impressive for your first Jam and first time using godot

Hi this seems like a fun take on magnetism. It’s very difficult and I wasn’t able to beat it. The music is a creepy, but gets a little repetitive. I like the animations for the hero.

As others have said, this is pretty challenging but it seems like I was getting better with practice. Challenging isn't bad and I think your visuals have a ton of charm, plus the central mechanic is fun. Any plans with regard to developing it further? Either way, great work!

@threeli I may remake this game with more time in the future, as it was quite rushed and I feel I can do better.

This game is really hard — I desperately need some checkpoints! It totally reminds me of I Wanna Be The Guy.

kkritselis 2025-10-07 22:17

I struggled with the controls on the web version, but it's an interesting idea. Nice!

very interesting but a little bit hard. Although I liked it! a very interesting idea

I like the idea and the music was so creepy haha and very very hard game

tank080001 2025-10-08 08:08

excellent idea, sad that it's a little too hard and there's no checkpoint (that I know of at least). GGs anyway

Interesting game! It's a shame I got my little character squished into a pancake so many times, haha.

It is a hard game, though I do like trying to beat a challenge. The unfortunate part is that I got stuck on a puzzle as I had no idea how to get past it. After climbing the platforms with yellow and green coins next to it, there is a section with a vertical block, a horizontal block, and a horizontal bar, with spikes next to it. How I am supposed to move the bar without hitting the spikes I could not figure out. I downloaded the windows version in case I was missing something but there was nothing to be done. At least I could see Weezer in the distance!

Up to that point, the challenges were brutal and punishing with each death sending me back to the start. I got used used to it though as I kept hitting the same roadblock that I could reach. I even made sure to collect ten coins just to make sure it would kill me, and it did. Still a neat concept on a mechanic that can help as easily as it can hurt you. Good job!

Very unique idea, I like this take on magnetism. Unfortunately however I wasn't able to beat the game. I would definitely recommend adding some checkpoints, like after the section when you drop down.

evil23 2025-10-08 15:36

This was probably mentioned before but never use W for jumping and space for anything other than jumping (unless you can't jump at all ofc). Most people play RPGs /FPS's and are used to WASD + SPACE controls. Also you could start with something more easy where you can't directly die, just to get used to the mechanics. Maybe a tutorial level. Anyway, graphics are consistent and not too bad. Good work!

where’s the checkpoints?😩 Where’s the checkpoints?🙏 Where’s the checkpoints?😭

eugenik 2025-10-09 06:52

Very nice game! :D.

pandalk 2025-10-10 11:51

The mechanic is pretty interesting, it makes for an interesting puzzle to move in the level.

overall, the game is pretty difficult, I wasn't able to get far, I would consider doing a first screen where there is no way to die at all, just something that requires the mechanic to move ahead, so the player can try again as many times as they want without feeling frustrated

The main mechanic is a great take on magnetism, but I think you limited the ability to explore it with such high difficulty. I think with some quality of life features like checkpoints and a smoother difficulty slope, you could do a lot with this.

kazuren 2025-10-11 15:00

Similarly with others, I found the game too difficult and couldn't get very far but the idea is really interesting!

myezko 2025-10-20 08:59

too long death animations and where are the checkpoints
