Cool magnetic levitation powers! Gameplay feels pretty smooth, but would click better for me to jump with space. 
Will you keep working on the game after the jam?

Developer

Very strong possibility for me to continue this.....

I like the different ways you can utilize your power here!

Pretty nice entry, it's just the right length! However, i think the colliders can be improved for next time. I was getting stuck a lot, and the platform was whacky.

Submitted

Fun puzzle platformer! With simple and easy to learn mechanic. Pulling out Mag Jump really feels good.

The level design is very clever, I wish there is one more level after the last level to round up all we have learned. We just get introduced to the no electromagnet zone in the last level.

I just kinda sad there is no inertia on the horizontal moving platform, makes it very slippery.

Developer

Yeah the moving platforms were a double edged sword. When playtesting people said that it was boring just standing on the platform waiting. So I changed it so that you had to keep moving with it. This may change in future....

Very clever idea and great execution - I like the art, reminds me of an old flash game. Would love an expanded version of this, good stuff!

Really fun game!  I found a bug where you could pull and hope on a block to keep going up, but I promised I only used it once... :D

Developer

As I've said with others. This isn't cheating don't worry! This is a intended feature. :) (Even shown in the walkthrough)

Such a amazing example of a simple idea perfectly executed! I love the way the character controlled, it felt so good to schmove around w/ the blocks. Would love to see a polished up version that had way more levels that explored all of your ideas further! I was so sad when I hit the end screen at the last level lol. Amazing job!

Loved the character! Really cool design :) 

A lot of clever puzzles and the balance between things pulling to / detracting from the player and the player getting pulled / pushed from things gave nice variation. I did give up when it came to that section with the big jump where there were blue boxes in the ceiling though, was unable to get past it.

 Had a fun time, great work!

Thanks for playing! If you wanna see how its done you can look at the walkthrough if you have time :)

And with these i have truly become magneto, loved the mechanics, it was really fun to play :3

Really awesome game and I love the interpretation of the theme! was a little tricky to play on the trackpad. would be great to have key options for polarity. 

Developer

Hmmm very valid. Had a friend play on a Mac with a trackpad and it was much harder. If I do continue with the game, key binding would definitely on my list!

Submitted(+1)

really great work! the dual-direction magnet mechanic is super smart, and puzzle design was excellent too, got through with just enough difficulty but not too much. nice one!

Submitted(+1)

How have so few people considered electromagnets for this theme. Great and creative game!

Submitted(+1)

So far, one of the games I have played with serenity, I understood everything right away and it is very fun and satisfying to play! We also used a very similar theme in our game, I hope you will try it out!

Submitted(+1)

I had trouble jumping on moving platforms, but it looks like you know about this already.  Cool idea!

Submitted

Very interesting take on the power theme! I cheesed the last level by keeping the blue magnet active even after entering the red zone. Otherwise great game!

Developer

Ahh yes I was aware of that being a possible solution but it was too late to fix soooo now I guess its a feature. Thanks for playing! 

Submitted(+1)

I have never ever seen anything like this before whaaaat? Its like a puzzle game turned into a platforming sandbox! This is so cool and unique :D

Submitted(+2)

Cool game! The magnet system is really smart and using it to make jumps is super fun! The platforms do move under you which is a bit janky at times. But overall great work on this!

Developer(+1)

I have identified that trying to jump while on a moving platform moving upwards can often be tricky due to a ground check issue sooo thank you for playing and letting me know!

Submitted(+2)

very smooth movement, just felt clean and made it incredibly fun to play. 

Submitted(+2)

The movement is top notch, I really love the idea

Yo this game is slick.
