This was very fun. I like a good platformer, and I felt that the handling felt really polished. The gravity flipping mechanic is proper good. Great job to the dev who made this. Would love to see more of this game in the future.

Wow what a cool game! The gravity flipping was surprisingly good. Amazing job!

All According To Plan...?That was a fun parkour platforming game! I would love to see some knockback force maybe from shooting so you can do some quick movements with that but it was still very fun!
One thing I noticed is that there isn't a cooldown to the gravity flipping so you can technically just fly through the levels.
But overall, a fun game!

You, the universe and a buttonThe game was really fun to play, I don't know if this just me, but I felt confused sometimes of when to use the gravity flipper as some areas have it while others doesn't. I just want there to be a clearer indicator of when I could use that ability, but that's just me. Anyway, the game was very enjoyable.

Desolate DeepReally cool game! I feel like increasing the air control in the character movement will greatly enhance the game. Nice gravity-flipping mechanic as well. Great work!

The Bomb BoomersGot Portal 2 vibes. Cheated with gravity the whole way to the last level and got stuck on pillars. You've got me there, nice trick to make easier path away from main goal. The graphics are simple, but that skybox and dark blue color brings atmosphere.

Desktop Defenderthanks if you wanna keep updated or help me think of new things to add go here to the real game https://oli-smash.itch.io/nightrun
Glad I finally got to play Mirror's Edge lol. But seriuosly, the gravity mechanic is really cool and seems to be well-executed. I also like the music, it really adds to the moody feel. One thing I found odd was that you gave me a gun, but didn't tell me how to shoot (don't worry, I figured it out). Also early on in Level Four the music just stopped and didn't come back. I wasn't able to get past Level Four but overall it was a good experience.
A great and well-designed entry, especially for a first game. Nice effort!

I Am Nothingmusic loops but I had some bugs in the packaged game so instead of looping the music ends but on level 5 it comes back thanks for the feedback if you enjoy and want to stay updated on the game check out the page for it https://oli-smash.itch.io/nightrun
The game is definitely worth playing. But it remains to remove some bugs and add optimization :)
