Once in Space
2007
Once in Space is a puzzle platformer where you can change your direction of gravity by walking over specially-marked corners. I was really proud of the game back in 2007, but unfortunately the physics and level design were really really unforgiving and janky, causing the neat core idea to get lost in the frustrating bits. I later made a more forgiving and evenly-designed HD version that released in 2011 and was later rereleased in 2022. The music for both versions was composed by Nicklas "Nifflas" Nygren, and if I remember correctly the sound effects were also made and/or edited by him. Thank you!
The source code for the game is seemingly lost, but I managed to make the executable playable again in 2022. The ZIP file is titled "2017" for some reason, I suspect that's just a typo.
