Speed is key, and this game delivers. Being one of the first games I played with the "increase gravity to go faster" mechanic, it feels a little underdone, but other games have since come along and played with it some more. Worth a try if you're into going really fast. Project Pantheon 9/275

As a fan of Tribes, I've always loved this movement system, & Defunct provides a great sense of speed with both how slow and how quickly you can move Only major complaint is that I feel like there's too many buttons where things like the broken motor should just always be on as a minimal speed, or magnetism should be automated by a magnet block type & not something the player has to hold

Short, but very fun game. Gravity-based speed and some surprisingly large areas to explore. You can get going very fast at times. The game can be beaten in one sitting, but I came back to it on a few different platforms to replay it. Cute aesthetic and well-produced.

This game was amazing, I thought to myself as I was about 50 minutes into playing it. I was thinking about all the future areas to explore and mess around in as I had only just begun playing the game. Only ten minutes later, I finished the game. Everything about this game I love... but its just way too short.
