Gravity Goat!View game page

Gravity Goat does not care about the direction of "down". He counts "down" as an irrelevant vector.

CUTE GOAT 10/10

What is the solution to  this level? I'm stuck.
It feels like I should be able to make this jump but controls aren't precise enough for that.

It's a good game, I think you did a great job!

Developer

This one is probably too hard. Basically, when standing on the left side (in the screenshot), you have to swap UPWARDS (so that the flag is pointing downwards), fall through the tunnel, and then swap LEFT (so the flag is pointing right) just before you hit the spikes.

Thank you for playing :)

That was the first thing I tried but it didn't seem to work, I must have messed up the timings and not been fast enough. I came up with the jumping idea after that, which maybe seemed more plausible. 

I tried, gg. Just need to get good. :)

Wait, I know I totally don't need to keep explaining this because it's a stupid game jam game, but my explanation kind of sucked. You have to swap upwards in that little cubby, so that you're STANDING beside the wood, and THEN walk off and swap leftwards at the right moment. That way, when you walk off the edge, the cooldown isn't going to stop you from swapping leftwards. The way you tried, and the way I basically described, the cooldown isn't in time. Sorry lol. GG

Goat it haha, so simple. I basically did a speed run to that point and almost got it first try. As I was standing on the other side, the trap door thing landed on me as I was waiting around.

Thank you!

Cool little game you got here with smooth transitions and artwork !

Submitted

Cute artwork! I liked that the animation when changing gravity was so smooth!

Although the mechanic is pretty simple, the puzzle design was actually very good. I had to think quite a bit for a couple of them. It is definitely impressive for a single day of work. Only downside is that the connection to the theme was not particularly interesting. Well done anyhow!

Developer

Thank you so much! 
And yeah, to be perfectly honest I was somewhat uninspired by the theme. It's just that so many games involve some kind of decreasing timer already, so it was almost by definition a "boring" connection. Thank you for your review and best of luck in the jam :)

Nice idea, enjoyed the first few levels!

I loved it but my goat died too many times because I suck ass lmao.

The gravity change + goat combination is something I haven't seen before and I think it should be used more! I loved the idea. The goat is cute too, I named him Mateo.

Wow,  thats's really good. the game is very polished. i so like the particles when gravity changes. Artwork is great too. To make the game more interesting, the cooldown on changing gravity should be removed.
