Momentus is a gravity defying platform game. The idea is that you have to jump from object to object to get to the finish, but theres a catch. You can only stick to objects which are the same colour as you. Once you stick to an object, the centre of gravity changes to that object so you are able to build momentum. Building momentum then enables you to fling yourself from object to object so that you can progress through the level. Watch out for the death zones!
