Inverta

Made for the GameJolt Minimal Competition!

Inverta is a game where you control a square (minimal graphics) through a black and white world. In the game are inverting devices that invert the world, allowing black squares to appear/disappear and the same with the white squares.

The story of the game is very minimal and linear. The sounds (Yes, there is sound in this game! :P) are, except for the music, minimal and 8-bitish. The title, following the trend of minimalism, is also minimal.

Enjoy the platformer! :D

  Minimal competition, huh ? Well, rather interesting entry, yet it looks that you take rules too literally:
  1) Gameplay is mostly about grinding jumps around some gaps and spikes – repeating some jump over and over is only thing that adds some time to walkthrough.
  2) Screen refreshment suffering serious problems when it comes to hint windows – they are blinking hardly whole time.
  3) Setting same button to jump and action while forcing players to from narrow (2-blocks) switcher’s platforms wasn’t really a smart choice at any point.
  4) Graphics could’ve be a lot more stylish – right now spikes are too wide for sharp appearance and inactive block seems just ugly.

  Thanks you guys. ^_^ And yes, I noticed that there were many precision jumps. Level design gimmicks kind of ran out.

  Agree with NAL this is a little on the hard side. Fun nevertheless.

  Pretty difficult game, but not in any way bad. Was fun overall. Good job. :P

  I beat the game with 180 death. A good portion being missing pixel-perfect jumps. It was not a bad game. I like the idea of switching blocks and such. It's just that some of those pixel-perfect jumps were super annoying. And the fact that the switch was the same button as jump was kind of irritating and lead to a bunch of deaths as well. 3/5. Very minimal ending, though... oh, and the music didn't play for me...
