Our take on Axyz
Gravity switching is the defining mechanic: changing the direction of pull can open routes to otherwise inaccessible items and provide different ways through a level.
What is Axyz?
Axyz is a perspective-shifting puzzle game with over 100 levels across 8 worlds.
Each level involves finding a key, reaching the exit, and using environmental and spatial awareness to navigate the layout. Switching gravity can provide access to items and create different ways to complete a stage. Every level contains 5 tapes to collect in any order as an optional challenge. Collecting tapes can unlock more levels with greater challenges, while replaying stages allows players to gather missing items and record a best time. The game uses vaporwave styling and includes a mixtape soundtrack spanning drum and bass, breakbeat, synthwave, and other genres.
