Hello all this is my first ever itch release, pico-8 release and playdate release all in one go! The game is like an endless runner but with the levels created by me. It's main concept is that you can flip or invert the world. I went for a rage quit kind of game in it's hardest form but with a check point system for people that want to play the easier version.

You should be able to play the pico-8 version on this page or through the bbs here:

I also have a little bit of a devlog over at the playdate forum that you might be interested in https://devforum.play.date/t/invert-world-devlog-some-help-needed/8749/15

I will be adding a few little features to the playdate version soon. Like distance travelled in the main hud and particle effects.

I will extend the length of this game if people like it. Just comment below if you do and I'll do something like 2x the length for 100 comments and 4x the length for 1000.

19/10/2022 Update
I've updated the pdxinfo file to include the games name.

27/10/2022 Update
I've added a version of the playdate game with some particle effects invert-world-with-particles.zip this has not been tested on an actual device so if this is not performing well for you please let me know and use the other file for now.

08/11/2022 Update
Fixed the invert-world-with-particles.zip pdxinfo file and added a card image to this version. I will soon make this version the main version going forward as I now have a device to test on and particles do not slow down the game.

Heya, should I just download the 'with particles' pdx from now on (it has the same bundle id as the non particles version? The pdxinfo also has buildtime and pdxversion listed twice. The buildNumber should probably be updated as well to make sure it updates over the top of precious versions easily.

Other than that, just installing the game now! :)

(just tried to sideload. The duplicate pdxversion stops it from working. I can fix this manually, but you should check your pdxinfo)

Thanks. I didn't realise that.  I'll go fix that or I should probably make that the only downloadable version really.

rage quit is appropriate. i gave up. good job. :)

good luck on your release and your game!!!!!!

Thanks. It's defo not for everyone. I rage quit a few times while developing it :-)

Writing for the possibility of more content!

Thanks for playing. Glad you enjoyed it. Did you find the hidden path? Did you play in browser or on the playdate?
