I think its cos its made in Unreal Engine 5 which tends to be a bit chunkier than most games

Thank you so much for the thorough feedback!! Yea, music is not really my strong suit as of now but I'm definitely learning more as I go! An option to turn off music is a good idea! I'm fully aware of the gravity not applying when ur on the ground. It actually does apply but you just need to jump! Everytime the gravity is switched, I added a force upwards or downwards so it applies properly but sometimes the player still sticks to the ground. I'll prolly think of a way to fix it after the jam! For the bullets, I'm not really sure about inheriting player velocity, I think it might look a bit delayed especially when the player is transitioning gravities. This is prolly because when the player presses the mouse, in a split second the player also moves, therefore it looks like its delayed but its actually not. I'm not too sure how to make this better as of now but I'll definitely keep that in mind! And shooting the anomaly twice is not something that I thought of. It is definitely possible with the way the code works right now and its an easy fix (this is why playtesting is important xD). I'm aware at some areas the player can get soft locked, thats where the reset button comes in! For the last level, its fully intentional, because (Spoilers) its a maze that branches up and down forward. So if you skipped the last level, that means you found the fastest path xD. I mean I finished the last level in 10 seconds.
Oh and don't worry about sounding rude or anything. Usually, the harsher (constructively) the feedback is, the more useful it is! Again, thank you so much for the very well detailed feedback!
Okay after trying to beat it again and again I noticed a couple of things! I realized that its not as easy as it seems especially in the rooms with giants in it xD. I think its unintentionally hard because the health capsule is not working . It doesnt really regenerate my health properly but I think once that is fixed, the overall game can be a lot better! I did my best but I was unable to complete it! Great game though!
I just finished rating everyone's game and for those of you who haven't done that, I really reccomend you to do it! There's a lot of cool games in the jam that are worth trying out! I think all of us here want to improve as a game developer. Personally, I learn a lot when playing others' games in regards of gameplay, level design, etc. and Also, be proud of the game that you made! Regardless of the final submission! Because YOU made it! and with time, you will improve more and more!!!
This is probably one of the most creative ways I've seen someone apply a gravity switch! It's very well done! There's a bit of bugs here and there but it is highly understandable given the time frame! I had a lot of fun using the gravity beam! It fits really well with the theme as well! The aesthetics of it is also very simple and charming. The little wizard is very cute and the backgrounds and everything are simple yet effective. Its unfortunate that the game is lacking any sounds. Even by adding a simple music, it would fill the void of the game! Overall, this game is quite creative and charming and I really like where this is headed. I really hope you develop this game further after the jam because this is such a cool game! Great job!
This game is a big buggy but its still charming in its own way! The gameplay is quite interesting, however I find myself questioning it a lot because there arent a lot of impact that shows that I have killed a ship or not so I'm not quite sure what I'm doing half of the time xD. The Graviton Grappler I guess fits the theme in a way but I'm not entirely sold! The aesthetics are the highlight for me, this gives me old console retro vibes which is really awesome! The sound effects are also effective with music implemented! Overall, this game has some bugs which is understandable given the timeframe, but its still very worth a try! Its still a very solid game overall! Well done!
This game is so wholesome and cute!! I really love it! I love the simplicity of it and also the goofiness it has! I love how unique your take is on the theme as well! The aesthetics are also very cuteee and well polished! The sound effects and the music are also very well executed!! Overall, this game is prolly one of the most wholesome and cute game in the jam! Very well done!
Okay this is probably one of my favourites! I really like the gameplay! It encourages the player to go fast. Its a bit hard to learn at first and the level design is quite hard, but it still is very satisfying to use and go through the levels! It also fits the theme really well with it using the gravity well! The aesthetics of it reminds me of me playing the Gameboy SP on a rainy evening which is awesomee! The animations are all buttery smooth and you really nailed the retro style of it. The sound effects are also very cool and fits really well with the game! Overall, this is such a great game and you should be proud! Good job!!
Woah this game's mechanic has some layers into it which I really love. It seems simple at first but as I go through the game, I discovered specific techniques to play the game and make it easier which is awesome! It fits the theme as well with it manipulating the gravity. I really like the aesthetics of it as well. The little pod fella is quite charming and the environments reminds me of old school games. The sound effects are also on point with the music being upbeat but not too much. Overall, this is a really cool game to play and get good at. Great job!!
I like the way this game is heading! I like how its an arcade game where I just have to get as much score as possible. The gameplay of it is very smooth and challenging which I love! It also fits the theme really well with gravity being in the planets. The aesthetics of it is very minimalistic, however it could use a bit of polishing especially on the ship and the starting UI. The sound effects are present with music which is quite nice and it blends really well with the game! Overall, this game is very cool and you did a great job!!
This game is kinda funny lol (in a good way). I like how the mechanics are very simple and easy to understand however, the controls are a bit tricky to master and the zero gravity mode are a bit too punishing for me but again, it could be a part of the challenge. Its interesting to say the least that you made a duck as a response to the Gravity / Zero Gravity theme lol but then again, the duck has gravitational powers so I guess it does fit! The aesthetics is very charming. I love the artstyle of it, it reminds me of hand drawn games! The sound effects and the music are also very good. Being able to quack to the music is a bonus point for me xD. Overall, this game is very silly and charming and I had fun playing it! Great job!!
This game is really cool! The mechanics are a bit tricky to do but it is simple yet charming. I finished the game and it felt satisfying. I like the take on the theme as well using the planet's gravitational pull to my advantage. I like the aesthetics as well! Though it might be better if the planets are more varied and this could benefit the mechanics as well by making the gravitational pull varied. The sound effects and the music are also very fitting. Overall, this is a very well done game! Good job!!
This game is simple yet very charming! I really like the gameplay overall. Using gravity wells is just so much fun especially when I'm spamming it HAHA. It also is very fitting for the theme! The aesthetics of it is also very simple but very well done! It fits the whole aesthetic and simple nature of the game! The sound effects are also well done with the music implemented! Overall, this game is very simple but provide the most charm in this jam. Great job!!
This is a very interesting take on the theme! I really like the mechanics! Its very well implemented, however, I do find some areas have a high difficulty threshold which is fine to people that likes challenges but its a bit hard for me xD. It fits the theme well with its gravity orb thingies! The aesthetics of it is very cool! It reminds me of old school factory games! The sound effects are also present but I think adding music to it could be beneficial to fill the empty void of sound. Overall, this game is pretty solid! Good job!!
Okay when you said its hard, it is HARD. I like it though! I'm not a rage game fan myself but I like games with a bit challenge to them. Though its a bit too hard for me xD. I like the gameplay mechanic. Its really unique to see swiping as a mechanic to change gravity and I really like that. The changing gravity also fits the theme really well with it changing according to the swipes and how long the swipes are which is very cool! The aesthetics of it is simple yet very effective. I really like your artstyle and the way you implement it! The music is really good and fitting. Sound effects are not needed that much in this game, however some things can benefit from it (swiping, finishing a level, etc). Overall, this game is charming in its own way and you should be proud! Great job!!
I love this game so much! I really like the gameplay! The gameplay is simple yet effective. The lack of control over the astrounot's body is what makes it challenging which is great! It fits the theme really well with having zero gravity and having to float around everywhere to go to the exit. The aesthetics of it is very cool! I love the art of everything and its very well polished! The sound effects are also on point! The metal clanking sound effects, the music, the alarm sound effect *chefs kiss*. Overall, this is probably one of my favourites! Great job!!
This game is quite fun! I really enjoyed it, its simple but its fun! It reminds me of old school space games for some reason! It fits the theme as zero gravity but maybe I would like to see a bit more gravity mechanic being in place! The aesthetics is very cool and retro. Its simplicity is part of its charm! The sound effects are present as well with the fitting music. Overall, really solid take on the theme and a very good game! Great job!!
I really like your spin on the theme! The gameplay itself is quite nice! The controls are a bit weird at the start but once I got used to it, its very smooth! The gameplay is quite enjoyable and fun! The Aesthetics are very simple yet complex. I really like the buttery smooth animations, the drawings, backgrounds, etc. The sound effects are also very effective! Overall, this is a very cool game with a cool twist! Great job!!
This game is very charming in its way! This is awesome! I really like how you crafted the gameplay! Its a bit hard for me but I guess thats part of the challenge xD! I really like your spin on the theme! The magnet being in zero gravity and being controlled around is such a creative way of making it! The aesthetics of it are very charming as well with smiley faces on the objects and the colours blending in together! The sound effects and the music are also very well polished! Overall, this game is very solid and probably one of fmy favourites! Great job!!
I really like the overall game! The gameplay is quite fun and challenging! The gravity switching is creative and giving the player limited mechanics is also good to challenge the player more. Though it some instances, I find it really hard due to the lack of control when the player is in the air (which is understandable). Personally, its a bit hard, thats why I didnt manage to finish it xD. The aesthetics is quite simple and charming! I like the little astrounot guy spinning around, its so cutee. The music is quite fitting however, adding sound effects on when the gravity changes could be beneficial! Overall, its a really solid game! Good job!!
I like the overall concept and gameplay! I like the concept of black holes since it is usually linked with gravity and you did it very well! The movement of it feels really fluid and smooth which is very important for the game! It fits the theme really well and the aesthetics of it are very simple but its quite effective in immersing me into the game! The sound effects plays a vital role as well, having sound effects for everything gives me feedback on the gameplay which adds to the immersion and satisfaction. Overall, really great game! Great job!!
I like the overall game! I like that the gameplay is forgiving yet its still punishing. However, I found an exploit that I am able to just get out of the rocks and just use the outer area instead which could be solved by adding a barrier or something outside of the pile of rocks outline! It fits the theme in some way since it is in space but I dont see any gravity / zero gravity theme being linked (well I mean you could argue that space is zero gravity). The aesthetics of it is pretty simple as it should since the game is simple in itself but the main complaint that I have is the lack of impact of when things are happening (maybe add particles when hitting a rock, etc)! The music is there which is good but the sound effects are lacking. Overall, its a pretty fun little game! Great job!!
