The main attraction of polarity is the use of the magnetic cap that the player is in control of. On command, the player can switch between the magnet's different modes/polarities, indicated by their color. Blue attracts objects for the player to hold on to. Red repels the object to be used as a projectile. Yellow is an additional ability/polarity that repels all objects around the player after a short charge. In addition to magnetic polarity, we have also set the scene at Santa's workshop in the North Pole as a soft nudge to Earth's north magnetic pole (Santa's workshop is at the geographic north pole, however it is the closest logical location to the north magnetic pole).

The movement just doesn't work for me only w
Cool idea but the actual level itself seems a bit chaotic and difficult to play. Just refine the enemies and level and it seems like a good game!
Hey there, sorry for the late response :D
Definitely agree with you, we didn't really have time to polish up the map or the actual enemy AI, but I believe it turned out half-decent. Glad you like the concept!
Incredible game.. :o
Liked this one very much, even tho I'm not that good at games like these
The cover art is absolutely amazing... wish I could draw like that
Overall, really solid entry!
The UI animations are very cool, the main mechanic is fun to play with, and overall, it's a solid game. The thing I didn't like the most was probably the busy floor tiles. The game could be a lot more readable if the floor tiles were cleaner.
Thanks for the feedback! I guess sometimes I am so stuck on sticking to a palette that I don’t consider how the actual art looks! 🤣
