Pocket Gravity

Pocket Gravity is a homebrew game for the Super Nintendo. You don't move the hero: you turn the whole world with L and R, and he falls to the new floor. Guide him to the glowing exit in 50 levels.

Every turn is a real Mode 7 rotation. Gravity follows the floor. The spikes don't move, but the floor does. Think before you turn.

🧩 How to Play

• Press L or R to rotate the world 90 degrees. The hero falls until he lands on a wall.
• Reach the exit (the glowing golden portal) to clear the level and unlock the next one.
• Falling onto the spikes sends you back to the start of the level.
• Some turns leave the hero stuck where the exit can't be reached anymore. Press SELECT to retry.
• TURNS counts your turns and PAR is the fewest turns that solve the level. Match it to earn a PERFECT.
• No lives and no timer: take your time.
