Steam Store description

Down is Relative is a perception bending single player experience, with a heavy emphasis on challenging your current familiarity to gravity. DIR is set in a sleek test facility that you were unwillingly brought to. Your overseers seem to have your safety in mind, but something still doesn't sit quite right... You have found yourself with the space bending ability to generate your own gravitational field that always points down relative to where you are looking. Mastering this concept is key to avoid displeasing your overseers. While becoming accustomed to these perplexing abilities, you will be run through a multitude of tests and puzzles to challenge your aptitude with them. If you manage to provide them with good test results, then they just might include water in this week's rations. Contained within this package is a around an hour of fun, tense, and satisfying puzzles and challenges, involving a full 20 puzzle rooms all weaved into a larger overarching story. Each puzzle introduces a new way to think about and overcome combinations of over a dozen unique puzzle elements. If you are looking for a physics playground with complex puzzles and a fascinating new concept to wrap your head around, then you will most definitely enjoy your time playing DIR!
