A stray book in Tidy Up: Spaceship can be floating rather than waiting on the floor. The developer offers normal gravity and Zero-G, with no advertised timer. The mode changes the physical cleanup condition rather than simply shortening the time allowed to finish it.

The task still involves finding books and returning them to appropriate shelf sections. A shelf indicator helps with classification, while carrying, stacking, placing and throwing are all listed actions. A floating book adds a different spatial situation to the same kind of sorting question, without the source establishing an exact flight path to reproduce.

Powerups address different parts of that work: larger carry stacks, longer reach and guided throws. Those are advertised functions, not proof that every toss reaches the correct shelf. Nor does the description establish identical room and upgrade availability in both gravity modes.

Choose the cleanup by the movement you want to deal with. Normal gravity supplies one arrangement of misplaced cargo; Zero-G keeps the books in the air. The useful attraction is having the mess change its relationship to the room while the shelf still asks where each book belongs.

Sources & context

The developer supplies gravity modes and powerup functions, not tested flight paths or throwing accuracy. The source does not establish that every room, upgrade or other rule is identical across modes.

One mechanic, the decision it creates, and a little dry humor.
