Very clever & unique concept! Great level design, very fun puzzles to solve. I dig the art style too, I dont know why you choose gothic/dark theme in a game about lock & key, but it works!

One thing that I'd add, maybe change the control scheme depending on the gravity, I think it's better you use up/down when you are on the vertical wall, just to avoid accidental death, its confusing enough that when gravity was on the left, right arrow key become move to the left and vice versa.

Regardless, awesome entry! Marvelous job! :)

nice and simple really hard, probably could've slowed the difficulty progression down a little bit, but thats a big issue with game jam games. all in all great job

I feel like there needs to be more gravity-based games, as they seem to make the most interesting platforming challenges. The art style was appropriately spooky, and the game felt long enough, without overstaying its welcome.

The control scheme irked me a bit at the beginning, but I changed my mind by the final level. The introduction of the cannon that only shot right made me realize that the majority of the game's difficulty was learning an unintuitive way of moving, and by the time you got to the end, you should have gotten used to it enough to dodge a moving object in an open room. Adding the cannon at the end nicely combined a final test of the game's puzzle, with an entirely new one. Pretty Neat!

My only real complaint was that the random movement of the boss kinda detracts a bit from the puzzle-solving nature of the game, because some movements make the boss harder than others. I had trouble hitting him more than twice for most of my runs, and then he ate ten shot at once by slowly moving across the floor.

Nice Work!

I killed the boss and got the golden key! I liked the game, moving around with gravity was much more intuitive then with the arrow keys. I am not sure how to solve that, maybe by having gravity on the keyboard and movement on the mouse might help, fun game. 

Cool concept, well executed :)

If you come back to it, I think it would be more intuitive if the movement controls were just up/down/left/right matching the screen direction; getting confused was definitely my most common cause of death.

I had fun making it to the end though :)

Very cool idea! Well polished! I liked the particles, and sound so much! Great job! Very creative enemy types!

a well polished and challenging game:)

That was pretty spooky!  I personally like the more upbeat type of games but I think people who like the darker side of games will enjoy this.  I can certainly appreciate the clever gravity mechanic -- nice work!

I liked this game. There were a few places where it felt like the controls were missing, though.

I wish that the up/down arrows would let you walk along the walls like the left/right arrows do on the floor and ceiling. Using the left/right arrows on the walls is very unintuitive. I also wish that the character would face in the direction that you're walking. This would only really be relevant to the boss battle to let you aim, but it'd make you feel a lot more in control of the character.

The final suggestion I have would be to reduce the randomness of the boss. Give it some sort of behavior pattern in the way that it moves. That'd give the player an opportunity to figure out what the movement pattern is, and let them feel clever when they come up with a way to exploit that pattern to beat the boss.

This game was way too fun! The art style and overall design looks really stylish and cool, and the core mechanic of controlling gravity to zip around the screen felt great and was so fun. I enjoyed my time with this game a lot!

By the way, we played your game on our stream last night! 

The concept is cool and the game is quite challenging ! The idea to be able to change gravity is a good one ! It allows some really neat level design, and some awesome strategies =) ! The general "hell" design is also pretty cool, this kind of design ir pretty rare.

The only drawback is... I don't really see the relationship with the theme ^^'. You said "Join yourself with the lock to proceed further", but it's like any screen-based platformer... I don't feel like the theme had an impact on the gameplay, or maybe I'm missing something ?

Nonetheless, it's a good game, and I enjoyed playing it !

Cleaver puzzles with nice aesthetic! Really good job! 

Cool atmosphere, dark and calm in the same time.

Very hard but I must say I really enjoyed it! The gameplay felt great and the visuals are very cool and different from anything else I've seen this jam. Great work! :D

cool idea! got some awesome art. levels are a bit hard.

Good job on completion.. Interesting gameplay. Definitely require some skill to clear this game. 

This is the first game jam I played to completion! It was very challenging but fair, good job!

The aesthetic is really awesome, good job! I think the main mechanic was fun and you did a great job ramping up the difficulty over the course of the game. The boss was still too hard for me to beat though.

I'm a sucker for puzzle platformers with lots of spikes. Very disorienting to keep track of which direction moves you left or right, but satisfying nonetheless. Nice job!

Nice job! I liked the twist of being able to transform gravity in any directions. Lots of games just have you switch it back and forth between up and down, so that made solving puzzles a little more interesting. Especially with how the enemies reacted slightly differently to the changes than the player. Also the music was cool, kinda reminded me of Silent Hill-ish. Only wish is up and down moved me when I was on the walls instead of left and right still since that took my brain a second to get oriented, haha. Good job on the game!

Cool game, really like the idea of playing as a key! It's a fun twist
