Nice idea, but the camera needs to be fixed! glad to play it again with the new camera!
I stumbled across this game while scrolling through the most rated section, and the thumbnail stood out for me from the rest. I was curious, so I played it. While playing it I felt a wave of nostalgia wash over me. It reminded me of my childhood, when I used to create platformers with Construct Classic. When I was experimenting with all kinds of ideas that popped in my mind. It brought me back to simpler times. Thanks, and good luck for your game dev journey!
good work, looks neat! camera is a bit too jumpy and the music.. we shall not speak of it again. ahaha!
Great game. However, I guess that the start button needs to have its hitbox adjusted and the way the obstacles are placed should be adjusted in order to prevent auto-die and frustrating situations. Also, the camera moves in a quick manner that makes the game more frustrating, but other than that this game is great.
Cool game, there are a few bugs like the start button hitbox. And also the fact you start in the next level with the gravity same direction you left the last level made going made auto-die at the very beginning of the last level. But besides that coll straightforward game, congrats!
Good premise, and really liked the sprites! It looks like you've already fixed the biggest issue. I had a hard time clicking the start button, but it looks like the hitbox for it just needs to be adjusted. Was able to get to the other side when the message told me to quit. :) Great job!
Its fun to reverse the gravity, but that camera is giving me a headache
hhhh Really fun small game. Very good idea, but camera just drove me crazy. Good job!

It was a fun little game. Good work on the obstacles. If you smooth the camera and keep it centered closer to the player I think that would help a lot. I'd also have loved to see more levels.
Edit: Extra star because my critique was an issue of presentation, not of experience. It's a solid design and I did have fun, even if it needs some more TLC.
[ + + + - -] :: CREATIVITY
Great idea reversing gravity. I don't know that it communicates the idea that the role of gravity is reversed. It might be fun to add a floating apple and make some science jokes.
Edit: I'm giving an extra star for creativity. After all, it was quite creative.

It's pretty straightforward. Again, the camera could be more smooth, and you could have some sort of transition between levels.
That was fun to play! I really did like toggling the gravity. It was interesting that I couldn't jump from the ceiling I like that. I would have liked to see some more levels though, and the camera not flashing but I see that you fixed it! Would love to play it again after the jam!
I'm sure if gravity can be considered a role, but it works nonetheless. Good job for putting this together by youself!
Reverse gravity is always a good idea ! Despite the camera issue, i enjoyed my little game session, Nice game
