Mechanics

The action takes place inside the space vehicle filled with enemies and deadly traps. Luckily, Johnny has a unique gadget at his disposal - a gravity manipulator, thanks to which he can for a moment turn the alter gravity in his immediate surroundings. The proper use of the device allows you to get to hard-to-reach places, eliminate enemies, and even avoid inevitable death (e.g. in case of a fall). As befits a 2D platformer, the game does not lack running, jumping and overcoming numerous obstacles. Some situations require the solution of a simple logic puzzle or the use of weapons. In addition, during the game, you can find coins that allow you to unlock access to bonus levels.

Technical aspects

The graphics in Antipole clearly indicates the low-budget nature of production. 2D graphics with simple animations and reduced color palette brings to mind games from the 8- and 16-bit era.
