How it feels

You control a cute character with deliberately reversed inputs, making every jump and gravity shift a brain-teasing test of precision.

What players say

Players describe Inversion as a very short retro platformer where the core gimmick is reversed controls, and many finish it in under ten minutes. Some find it fun for a quick distraction, while others call it a frustrating asset flip that can be exploited by glitching through levels.
