Gravity-bending party platformer Which Way Up: Galaxy Games from Turtle Flip Studio plans to release in early 2025 with a demo available and it's crowdfunding on Kickstarter to help it expand. Inspired by Mario Galaxy, you compete in various acrobatic gravity events in this low-gravity platformer.

More about it: "Perform graceful gravity gymnastics, sprint away from the relentless pull of a black hole and launch your competitors into space as you battle through round after round in this gravity-defying party game! Keep playing to unlock new events! Cherry-pick your favourites for a winning edge.

Which Way Up gives you a unique freedom of movement not frequently felt in platformers. Experience running on walls and ceilings, orbiting around planets, or falling across an entire level by manoeuvring through gravity fields. The varying designs of the levels & game modes can make you feel like you are enclosed in a small room or that you might float away into the emptiness of space. Each game mode has different objectives, creating many opportunities for chaos, sabotage and mischief."

Now crowdfunding on Kickstarter, the campaign looks to fund support in its leadup to launch, as well as being able to fund additional platforms, more content, and more stretch goals to be revealed.

It will have full Native Linux support, with a demo available to try. They also plan to ensure it's optimized for Steam Deck.

I don't think I've ever seen such a Nintendo-themed title that isn't actually Nintendo! The music in particular!

Does anyone know a M.Galaxy type game that is not co-op? No friends to play with ("internet buddies" dont count)
