@nidup could you try the link again? It works for me in Chrome.
Also I really liked your game!

Cannot rate due to lack of flash. Just so you know, FLASH IS DEAD. Chrome works because it is built in with flash. Personally I use an open source browser with no proprietary garbage in it and I wont even consider installing flash. Maybe it is a great game, but I will probably never be able to play it. :(

Good game, nice puzzles. Unfortunately I got stuck when placing the battery, after turning back gravity.

Nice platformer! Controls are a bit sticky at times but it plays pretty nicely overall.

I'm also seeing an empty page, using chrome 59.

Liked the physics feel with the art idk something cool about it

The jump feels a little small compared to the tile size however.

Damn that lvl 2! I was on my way to bring battery to its place and I failed last jump! XD
Platformer is tricky but controls and physics behave strange sometimes. That's why I don't feel like I really control something. If you fix this that will be a great game!

The hit boxes were sometimes a bit bad, but otherwise this is an awesome game. Loved the art, the levels were fantastic, and it was fun and challenging trying to beat the levels. =D

Yep, just an empty page for me. I'm using Chrome as well.

A bit of slow locomotion, and unfortunately I softlocked on the second inverted gravity level, but overall, nice!

A nice little game ;) Locomotion/Physics needs a little overdo (got stuck on visually flat ground sometimes and had to jump over it), but fun to play in the end. I do like the graphics, too!

Edit.: For all who can't play: Try it with Flash enabled

Thanks all for your feedback, I'll definitely keep it in mind and be better prepared for next LD. I did finally manage to make an html5 build, which should be playable by more people. If you guys still want to give the game a try, I'd really appreciate it!

Worked for me! I liked the level design, it was fun to get through the levels! However, I found the controls not that smooth, it was a bit hard to manage the character and it could be a bit frustrating at some point. But I kinda liked the graphics, it was minimalistic but clear enough to enjoy it. Good job :)

very interesting level design. It' fun to play. It could be improved with a better jump(higher/ + more control). The issue with the current jump is that you die to early because of its flaws. It's still a nice game :smile:

Looks great. Just wished it playes better. The platform physics can be hard, but perhaps you can improve it buy using a platformer library instead.

Great puzzles! I enjoyed playing, only the player inertia is a bit too strong and the way you get stuck when jumping over a block is a bit frustrating.
