Interesting game. At one point I was able to gain enough momentum to blast myself out of the map :D

Submitted

That messes with my brain and I love it. Cool concept!

Submitted

Really simple game with an interesting main idea and concept, good job. :)

Submitted

Nice idea with the gravitation change

Submitted

fun game moving around, I felt I should've been hitting the checkered points, but nothing happened when I did. 

Submitted

Good game! but the controls were kinda hard to use and I kept getting stuck and even at one point I fell out of bounds. but overall it was nice

Submitted

Noice :P

It was fun to control. But if the player had a bit more control over the character i think this game would be even better :) but good job nonetheless


i also made a platformer for the jam. you can play it and rate it if you want https://itch.io/jam/wowie-jam-3/rate/940947 :)

Simple, but fun game :)

Thanks man, yeah the simpler the game the better.

Great job, the game is simple and fun, it included the idea presented, and you need focus, but you have to work on the sound effects.

Developer

Thank you, "be aware from the gravity shifts" HAHAH.

Yeah you are right i suck with sound, music, and this is the first time i try to implement sounds, and music in my games.

Good idea but I think the level design could have used a bit of work. I pretty much fell to the finish line straight away by accident which was a bit confusing. The controls are good and well done for making your own music and putting this all together in 3 days :)

Developer

Thank you I appreciate, and yeah as you described the game has unsolvable bugs honestly.

I will fix them, and add more levels.

Glad you noticed that the game was all around made from scratch.

The mechanic of gravity is great and interesting. I think I saw a bug :  with the time, the ball continue to go forward even though i don't touch the controls.

Developer(+1)

Thanks bro, yeah its not a bug its a feature 😉.

I mean yeah I will fix it sure thanks for informing me.

Submitted(+1)

I liked the gravity mechanic, I thought it was an interesting take on the theme! Are you planning to add more levels?

Developer

Thank you, YES sure.

After the jam for sure, planning to fix the bugs also, stay tuned.

As I soared out of the level at the speed of light, I thought to myself "dang this is awesome".  With some levels and some polish I think this game would be a great release game. You could do some really wacky stuff with the crazy speed concept. Great concept :)

Developer

I also had that feeling, thats why i liked the idea.

I wanted to add more levels, but no time, i was fixing other things.

Thanks for the feedback.

Nice game. 

I really liked it when I got lots of speed and was practically flying around the level. I wish I got those moments more often when playing your game.

I feel like the field of view and the jump height could be increased. I also feel like you should have had the ball instantly go at its max horizontal speed as soon as you pressed A or D instead of its horizontal speed slowly going up as you hold A or D. This would have made moving around a lot more fun. 

The graphics are nice, but the colours don't work well with each other. I think if you made one side the exact opposite colour of the other side, your game would look way better.

If you have the chance, please work more on this. I feel like it has a lot of potential.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback bro, you actually gave me an idea, with the field of view thanks for that.

I will update it maybe after the jam voting.

For the colors they represent north and south.

really nice Idea but I reached the finish line and just the sound changed so I don't know if is the real finish but I think so. Nice game

Developer

Hey Crusher Studios thanks for the feedback bro, I appreciate it. 

You know most jam games are unfinished, and I didn't have plenty of time in this jam, so some work was undone.

Submitted(+1)

Really cool idea, instead of falling to your death, now you get to play with different gravity! Really interesting way to interpret the theme :) Liked it quite a lot!

Pls consider playing and rating my game if possible!

Developer(+1)

thank you Banish, you inception :), I really appreciate it bro.

Really nice concept, the idea of gravity change is so cool! Maybe better looping music (if you need some I use this website: https://www.zapsplat.com/) and maybe an arrow or something that points you to the goal, because I was lost a second after the tutorial was over.

Developer

Thank you Matthew, yeah I quiet had a hard time making music, thanks it will defiantly be my go to for music.

BTW, let me tell you a secret all of my games lack sound, and music sadly.

Submitted(+1)

I like the whole gravity change concept. I think maybe there could've been some more sound and nicer art, but I think this could make for a fun little game with some more levels!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback TheShelfman.

Yeah the music, and sounds are terrible, and for the art i tried cover it with simple polishing :) , maybe I guess I will continue with the project if i had the time, I promise more levels are coming up.
