An expanded game of Defy Gravity

Defy Gravity is an action platformer that is a mix between classic platforming and gravity based puzzle solving. Kara, our heroine, has access to a unique gameplay mechanic that she uses to manipulate the world around her. She has a gun that is able to alter the laws of physics through the creation of pockets of gravity and anti-gravity. By mastering the use of these abilities Kara is able to augment her jump in order to almost fly past obstacles. These powers can also be utilized to move objects that block her path and platforms that Kara stands on in order to traverse the levels.

An interesting concept for a puzzle-platformer game, where you have to go from point A to point B by creating gravitational attraction and propulsion areas.

The presentation is incredibly minimalistic, with incredibly basic graphics, not many animations, and what is pretty much a one sentence story. It felt a bit like a flash game at times due to that.

The first half is relatively easy, while the second half explicitly warns you it's much harder.
Checkpoints were placed rather well, allowing for multiple attempts of trying different things without losing much progress, but it was noticeable that the levels became much longer in the second half. This normally wouldn't be an issue, but if you decide to exit the game, you'll be sent back to the beginning of that level, rather than the last checkpoint, which was a shame. Not to mention there's no level select. The most annoying part however were the rather stiff controls.

Overall, it's an interesting idea which with improved controls and more work put into its presentation could've been a great game.
In its current state, it's one of those "it was ok, but could be much more" type of games.

Puzzle platformer that was more challenging than I anticipated. It felt rewarding when I beat a level.

This was in my backlog and according to Steam, I only paid 14 cents for it. I can't complain getting three hours of entertainment (sometimes frustration) out of it. I do wish the story was more included. It had a nice little intro but didn't expand on the world more than that.

underrated puzzle platformer! it's janky but i can't help but enjoy it

bought this game for like 15 cents on steam it haunted my library for a while

un bonito recordatorio de lo simple que puede ser hacer un juego divertido y efectivo, aunque el feel cuando el personaje reacciona a la pistola de gravedad podría ser un poco mejor
