This was quite fun, would make for a great speedrun game :)
I like how the teleporter fulfills more than one function, in later parts it becomes a key and you need to rely sorely on your own platforming skills to progress. Also VFX and the animations felt smooth!
Thank you so much! I really wanted to try using the teleporter in a way that feels unique and isnt only for just teleporting, mixing up the gameplay slightly. I also really like the idea that the first time you enter a level, you figure out what you need to do and where you need to go, and on subsequent playthroughs, you can find ways to get through those areas quicker and more efficient. Im glad you enjoyed it!
You intrigued me enough with HL1 reference to download the 500mb!
There's something about this game which is beautiful (probably my nostalgia). The copper rooms are quite stunning, i really liked the art style.
I get quite motion-sick so the teleporting did make me feel queasy after playing. I managed to get out of bounds by constantly throwing the portal at the wall to cheese my way across the chamber!
Im glad you enjoyed the art style, even if they were cobbled together photos i took with my phone lol
If i had more time, i would definitely try to make it so instead of teleporting at the walls location, try to find the direction of the wall and teleport a set distance away so its not as easy to clip out of bounds
I can definitely tone down the effect after the teleport happens as well
Thanks for trying it out, and thanks for the feedback!!
