How it feels

A lighthearted pixel-art puzzle platformer where you use gravity-shifting abilities to solve physics-based puzzles and escape a castle, feeling like a playful cartoon adventure with a focus on logic and hidden objects.

What players say

Players praise the clever puzzle design where rotating the screen changes gravity, and enjoy how new mechanics like floating crates keep things fresh. The star system rewards speed and efficiency, though some find the keyboard controls awkward and the limited visual variety makes levels feel samey.
