Hello Jammers,

Me and my girlfriend are trying to submit our first jam.  We really liked to theme and we named our game Gravity Knight.

The core mechanic is to change the gravity of the player.

We have the prototype gameplay finish and some placeholder animation and art but we will replace this the next days.

Some short GIF from the  core gameplay:


Technology  used:

  • Unity
  • Asprite

Happy Jamming!

I wonder, when you switch gravity, can you switch gravity while in mid air? that would make really interesting air levels for this game

Submitted

Yes currently you can change the gravity mid air. 

We are still not sure if the player only change gravity if he is grounded, we must test this out.

I hope we can soon release some alpha gameplay on itch

Submitted(+1)

siiick, but if you can change the gravity mid air, you can just make your character fly, but if you don't want to do that, use Physics2d OverLapCircle and a boolean to help decide if you can switch gravity if you are grounded.

Thank you for your help

Added our own Artstyle to the game

We added following features:

  • New Tilemaps with our own art
