Inverted gravity

I can't stand ceilings, but maybe you can stand on something else?

Control panel room

That coffee mug is dangerously full, it could spill disaster.

Projector room

Did you know that boxes like to sit on top of the color red? But only in the moonlight.

Known bugs

• The coffee mug in the second room can be thrown out of bounds. If this happens, simply press escape and restart.

Which graphics settings to use?

There's 3 graphics presets available, on my laptop with a 1660 TI the highest one runs at a smooth 110fps.  
There isn't a big visual difference between 2 and 3 but a significant difference in performance.  
The lowest setting uses significantly less VRAM and performs much better, but also looks worse.
