The game feel is great!

Nice concept, you could develop this and make it into a full-length game!
I have some ideas
1) Disappearing blocks
When you touch them, they fade away
2) Buttons
By standing on it, it would open a gate.
3) Boxes
You could push boxes onto buttons, and change their gravity as well
4) Canons
Canons would shoot spikes in the direction they are facing, and the bullets would not be affected by gravity. I have an interesting puzzle idea: The cannon in this level would be shooting up, and so trying to pass would result in you falling on the bullets. To pass you would have to change gravity to go on the Z axis, so you can jump over the bullets.
I have some more ideas that would be helpful but it is possible you have already rejected them:
1) WS
I know that some of the puzzles rely on this not being a thing but... I think it would allow for more freedom and puzzle combinations to be able to move forward and back with WS
2) Camera Controls
This would allow you to change the direction of where the camera is facing, possibly with the mouse. Maybe also a camera reset button, which would be helpful for knowing which direction you would change your gravity in
Thanks, and I hope you enjoyed this feedback
I might as well explain how things work for people who are confused. (right now no one lol)
Every 60th of a second, your energy goes down, by a little bit.
This "little bit" is increased every time you sprint, and will go back to normal after a few seconds.
The lower the energy you currently have, the faster this goes back to normal. The higher the energy you have,
the slower it takes for it to change back to normal.
One more thing:
Energy affects:
-Cooldown between sprints (how long you have to wait each time you sprint before you can sprint again)
-Speed of sprint (How fast you sprint)
It does NOT affect:
-Move speed
-Health
That's all for sprinting!
I'm going to say the game's shortcomings first.
I've died and fell many times because of movement. I move too far when I try to stop.
And at one part, there is a softlock which forces you to restart the game if fell into.
Other then that, This game is amazing!
I love the way you have to store momentum in between the two sections to reach higher areas.
Really creative!
The game feels like a puzzle, which I think is great too.
Nice game. :)
VERY. HARD.

Every piece of feedback has told me this is way to hard.
Good luck!
Amazing concept! Die to gain health so you can fight the bosses!
Figuring out how to die is really fun! And every enemy is unique.
The final boss is YOU.
I had alot of fun playing this game. I only had a few issues:
In one of the levels you have to fit yourself in an almost impossible gap. I did it in the end, but it was hard.
In another one of the levels, you have to go to the left of the screen to die. My mind usually associates the bottom with death and the sides with next level.
It was the only place that I maybe could've considered a death area, but it was still pretty confusing. If you were to update the game, I would put spikes in the death areas.
Overall, the game is great! It was really fun to play, and it wasn't too hard.
Very nice game.

You can win at any time in this game!
VERY HARD
I played the game last night.
Here are my thoughts!
The game has a really nice concept. Control the enemies and make them lose.
While playing, I NEVER guarded as I felt like that was a waste of time when you could be losing. I'd much rather attack.
Speaking of time, I felt like it took way to long for things to happen. It's pretty frustrating. If there's anything in the game I would change, it would be this.
Besides that, this game is amazing! I love the art style and music. The beginning music feels silly and fits the visuals. The battle music is good too!
Great game! But there was something bothering me while I was playing.
When I tried to jump on platforms, sometimes I would slide off!
The last level was a lot harder because of this, as you need to make many successful jumps in a row to get to the finish it.
Besides this, the game is really good and I enjoyed playing it.
Here's my game!

Usually in games, there's a clear condition you must achieve to win the game.
In this game, there is none!
You can win this game simply by pressing space!
You can get one of six different endings based on what you do before.
Once the game starts, please read the short pages teaching you how to play.
Good luck!
Great game!
The only thing is that I thought power ups were bad at first.
I was no longer able to jump.
I figured it out in the end, and completed the game.
So overall, it's a great game! but I would add instructions so you know what to do.
