In this game you control an object that allows you to negate the effects of gravity and drag. Use that to your advantage and try to find as many green gems as you can :)

Nice game, although im not sure if you put 117 gems on purpose. i got a score of 1.017391304347826% and i found 117/115 gems :) still nice game.
Haha super nice fun with this game, altrought the objectives and the theme where sparse, i liked it a lot :)
Haha, glad you liked it. The extra gems thing...It's a bug:P sorry :D
Wow that's cool! I found the keys were a little clunky is all. Also, I found \ brings up a console! Which is fun.
Simple platforming pleasure.
Gratz on clearing the LD48!
I fell in the first hole and couldn't get out. Had a lot of fun laughing. :P
Pretty neat, although I never really found a use for getting rid of the drag. Maybe I could have done it faster.
I enjoy turning off gravity and then walking off ledges and over pits.
I liked the sound. It was fun running around at super speed and collecting diamonds. Super speeding was too expansive.. you could hardly combine it with no- gravity jumping. And there was too little air control, once you jump, you are pretty much 'doomed' if you didn't plan your jump right. It would have been nice if there were some moving obstacles so you could get better use of your super speeding.
It's a fun game, and I managed to find all the gems, and then some :)
I also didn't find very much use for the 'Z' button, maybe if you would add some slippery floors it would have more use (and it would be fun).
Quite an interesting idea, well done!
Found the controls a bit clunky, so it wasn't much fun for me (couldn't jump while reducing gravity - is that intentional)?
Thanks for all the comments! :) mwest, yes, unfortunately it was a last minute bugfix to avoid jumping after you walk out o ledges with no gravity but I should have done it better. Thanks for playing :)

It's a simple, yet cool game !
The only point I might find a bit disturbing is the concordance with the theme in the sense that it isn't really dangerous (apart from a few spikes.)
There is also a bug, if you touch the bottom of a block with your head you can walk as if you were standing on it.
Apart from those details, good job !
