The Sun And Moon

Next up, in the category of "Ludum Dare games that are now 'full' games," here's The Sun and Moon. It's a platformer in which you can go through the platforms—flipping gravity to build momentum, and thus increasing the height of your jump. Here, watch the trailer to see what I mean.

I really enjoyed the Ludum Dare version, as did free games aficionado Tom Sykes. Hopefully this expanded version can further push and iterate on its clever core idea. We'll find out in a few hours, when the game launches onto Steam.

He eventually joined full-time as a news writer, before moving to the magazine to review immersive sims, RPGs and Hitman games. Now he leads PC Gamer's UK team, but still sometimes finds the time to write about his ongoing obsessions with Destiny 2, GTA Online and Apex Legends. When he's not levelling up battle passes, he's checking out the latest tactics game or dipping back into Guild Wars 2. He's largely responsible for the whole Tub Geralt thing, but still isn't sorry.
