Nominated as a IGF Seamus McNally Finalist, NightSky is an ambient action-puzzle game that offers a gameplay experience unlike any other—cerebral challenges fill uniquely designed picturesque worlds. The player must maneuver a sphere by using realistic physics to advance; each of these worlds is broken into different areas.

Fun little game some good puzzles. REALLY REALLY annoying controls though. Space being reset level sucks! There is also no way to change the controls.
Simple physics puzzler, and one of the more relaxing in the genre. Not too deep, doesnt overstay its welcome. I replay it every few years.
This is ASMR physics in a game's disguise. That extremely soothing feel you get while playing it is simply priceless! Buy it at full price, the game deserves it totally!

Very fun game, has 2 different modes both with good difficulty curves for people that don't play many puzzle/platformer games. Or I'm just dumb, lol.
简约的画面,考验微操作的精品古早解谜游戏。基本机制是一个滚动的小球,可加速减速,配合重力和动量的基本物理法则。 无中文和云存档,按键不能改,但也还好。比较难适应的是部分关卡左右方向颠倒和正常方向操作在空中切换。
Now with over a decade (and a half!) since its Steam release, [i]NightSky[/i] as an ambient physics-platformer still pleasantly surprises with its near-perfect physics simulation and short yet neat puzzling levels. Originally purchased as part of a bundle, I never thought to give it a try until recently. It appears as a simple ball-rolling physics-platformer but the levels offer a charming variety that go between tightly designed challenges to wildly imaginative contraptions. This occasional change in pace alleviates the difficulty found in the precise platforming levels that were often the focus in platformers at the time. The physics were also pretty much perfect, the outcome of every collision or every bounce felt understandable and there was no need for any physics jank to get reach the goal. In turn it allowed the harder levels to require more precise movement that honestly felt a little crazy at times, but always knowing each level was only 3 screens long made it bearable. Comparatively to its modern peers, [i]NightSky[/i] isn't anything spectacularly special (although rarely anything is once 14 years has past,) but it has a confident and playful design that's perfect for anyone nostalgic for the masochistic platforming of the time.
another nifflas banger. even all these years later i still find myself coming back to this one just to play a few levels, super chill soundtrack, really pretty visuals, lots of fun gameplay ideas. can't recommend this one enough
