Description

"4 stars...anyone who misses Meteos would do well to pick this up...general puzzle fans might want to give it a go too." - TouchArcade.com

The puzzle-shooter genre is back!

In this fast paced puzzle-shooter mash-up, you are the captain of the defense force of Gravitas, a peaceful galaxy far away from Earth. One day a wormhole appears in the center of Gravitas and begins raining debris and trash into the atmosphere of the galaxy’s various planets. To defend against the invasion, you must match three or more of the same types of trash and launch them back into the wormhole. Hit the wormhole with enough debris to save each planet. Complete all 20 levels to eventually uncover the source of the wormhole and shut it down.

GAMEPLAY

- Move the falling blocks vertically around the board to match three or more of the same type horizontally or vertically and launch them into space.

- Beware of garbage blocks that cannot be matched. Clear enough blocks to save the planet before time runs out or before the trash and debris pile up and crushes you and the planet below.

- Launch matches vertically to fire blocks off the top of the screen to score against the wormhole. Clear enough blocks before time runs out to save the planet.

- Chain together matches to score combos and bonus points.

- Utilize power-ups like the Clear Bomb or Destruction Slam to clear trash and debris.

FEATURES

- Classic Mode: Complete 20 levels, each with their own unique environment, gravitational physics, and theme. Clear the target number of blocks before time runs out. Unlock additional levels, modes, and achievements.

- Quick Play Mode: Choose to play a single round of any cleared level but you can adjust the number of blocks, the difficulty level, and the time remaining.

- Two Player Mode: Play head-to-head against a friend locally or online. As you clear blocks, debris is dropped on your opponent.

- Marathon Mode: Clear as many blocks as you can before getting crushed. As you clear more blocks the game increases in difficulty. Compete with friends for the highest leaderboard score.

- Grav Lab Mode: Once you have completed all of the levels in Classic Mode, you can access the Gravity Lab where you build and play a custom level with unique planetary physics of your choice. Modify gravity, spawn rate, restitution, and more.

** Gravitas is available on both iPhone and iPad devices. The iPad version provides even more precise gameplay with support for the Apple Pencil.

Needs a little work but it’s good

The game is certainly enjoyable but it has a few niggling control issues. It often registers the wrong box being pressed. It also has an issue where you drag your box to the correct space and let go, and it just snaps back to its starting position like the move was cancelled

Developer Response ,

Hi Burton86, thank you for the feedback. We have released version 1.0.1 which has improved controls and hopefully results in smoother gameplay and a better overall experience for you.

Needs work

Very good game hindered enormously by a very poor and baffling design:

1) Why is there no portrait mode? Surely for a tetris style game this a no-brainer
2) playing area is WAY to small. I am struggling to view on a 12 inch iPad, especially when the box designs are intricate. Also why are the side boxes so big in comparison and what use is the target view?
3) Dragging the boxes are an issue as they often snap back after dragging and are often difficult to pick being very small

Fix and you have a winner. If not then very little Gravitas and it will sink like a stone

Hi Minimomo666, thank you for the feedback. We have released version 1.0.1 which we attempted to improve the touch screen controls where we could and we are now scaling the blocks up to a larger size on the larger screen iPads. We are continually working to improve them game and while this may not address all of your issues 100% we hope that the new version is more responsive and easier to play on your 12 inch iPad.

Great game

I love the retro feel of it. Not so keen on the music and it’s better and less fiddly if you play with an Apple Pencil but I’m finding it a lot of fun

Developer Response ,

Hi hicksys30, thank you for the great review and rating! I'm glad you are enjoying the game! I thought the music might not be everyone's cup of tea so if you check out the settings in the game you can turn off the music. If you do that, you can then open another app like Spotify or Apple Music and play your own music in the background, basically creating your own soundtrack for the game.
