This is a really interesting concept and I love it. I never would of thought that pausing could be made into the core mechanic of a game and you did it perfectly!
It's an interesting concept, but for the first level, I couldn't get the character to jump very high.
Brilliant mechanics! Mind blown!
my brain hurts help

This game has a very different game mechanic. It's simple but sometimes I found it challenging. Also I like the level designs and the visual aspect.
On the Light Box Heavy Box level I can't push red button with box 😒
Congratulations for winning GMTK 23!
Thank you! For the box level you have to turn gravity up once the box is on the button
Ah! It's worked! Thank you!
