DownsideUp

Use your downwards momentum to travel... upwards!

I made this game during a game jam in 2018.

I wanted to make a very simple main mechanic and see how far I could strech it. The mechanics of this game are similar to that of a standard platformer, expect you have an extra jump that can turn all your downwards momentum around, sending you upwards. I then designed several levels that all explore ways to use this simple mechanic. See the GIFs for examples.

I also spent a considerable amount of time on polishing this game. I am a firm believer that a juicy game with great feel is often worth more than an extra mechanic or level.
