Elysian Shadows

I made this game for Moosader's (Lusikkamage) competition called unintuitive physics.

This game is a standard platformer (platforms not included)
The unintuive part is that the way you run and jump is determined on the platform/tile you are currently on. Each tile is either red or green. If you step on a red tile, the way you run will be inverted. The way you jump is defined by the arrow displayed on the tile, making you press the down button sometimes if you want to jump.
examples:

This tile would not make your left and right inverted but if you press the jump button you will jump to the left. This introduces a puzzle element to the fast-paced rythm of a platformer.


This tile inverts the left and right movement and makes you press the down button in order to jump. If you press the down button in this case, you will jump to the right.

Tell me what you think

I've played through it. It's definitely fun.

Thanks ^_^
Noticed anything that could be improved?

I think the platforms in the final version work pretty much as suspected, good work on those! The best thing you could do is add more of those awesome levels.

Pretty cool game. Only problems I had with it is the level design, like when I get to a checkpoint way up a level, then if I fall down I have to go all the way back up because I can't die and get to the checkpoint. But that's probably nitpicking.

Good job, fun game :D
