A downloadable game

In There is a cinematic platformer made in 7 days for the Brackeys Game Jam 2023.2. Theme: Diving Deeper 

It's a 10min long experience inspired by games like Abe's Odyssey and Heart of Darkness (with a dash of Gravity Rush!)

You play as a kid caught in what appears to be a never ending and eerie cavern. As he is plunging to his death, he discovers a mysterious ability that lets him suppress his gravity.

  • Run and float around to avoid the many dangers of an uncaring environment 
  •  Use your gems as light sources to unveil the darkness and surveil your surroundings
  • A dense hand-drawn atmosphere, at the midpoint between eerie and beautiful  

Made by me

⚠Known Bugs and Fixes⚠

  • The geysers are permanently triggered (without any VFX). This will make the game impossible to beat. It happens if you die by smashing the ground in a room that has geysers and you respawn in the room before. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is restart the game. Sorry about that!


  • You're stuck behind the bouncy eyes. You can throw a bunch of rocks at them to trigger the bounce and try and slide your way between the eyes as they jiggle. Or you can bounce against them as fast as possible until the velocity kills you and you respawn normally

Great game! I really enjoyed the challenge of timing the rocks in the dark. 

Same here :)

Just finished playing.

It's really really good game

And the ending is great. A nice way to end it.

I see why you were #1 overall

Well done💥

i love the game style! i found a few bugs. if you want to potentially fix them you can request to DM me with the same username here about the ones i found. so far ive found what i call "superman mode" and the "rock spawn softlock".

i would find more things... though i kinda trapped myself with that last one i found 😅

Congrats, never actually got to play this game though cause there was no linux build :)

A really good game

Thanks!
