cool concept, as soon as you have a room memorized its quite fun to breeze through it

since discovering the layout of a room is a bit trial and error having to do the earlier rooms over and over is quite frustrating. i feel there should have either been checkpoints or some way to preview the other timelines though is can see how that problem might be hard to see when your the one developing it

Developer

Firstly thank you for your feedback! :)

You're right we didn't consider any checkpoints at first. It was already in the end phase that I realized we should've made some kind of easy mode where each door would have a checkpoint. Unfortunately you can't race time (or rewind it ;) ), so I dropped the whole thing to concentrate on polishing other stuff.

I like the idea, but the jump seemed to sometimes not work at the edge of platforms when it seemed like I still had room, and it relies too much on memorizing the layout of the rooms for me.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! :D

I'll take a look and adjust the jumping mechanic. It's true, memorizing is an essential part of the game and could be very tricky that's also one of the reasons why we didn't build that many rooms.

I really like the idea of the game although it was not that easy to press 3 buttons at once. Sometimes (I think when I was at the edge of a platform) the character didn't jump and I had to redo everything. The problem I have is that I don't know how how to continue after the first door because when I press Z I'm back at the start :)

Overall, I really liked your game and it was fun to play ;)

Thank you for your feedback! :)
Jumping seems to be a serious problem, so I'll try to fix it as soon as possible. When I think about the Z-key now, I realize that it wasn't a good choice of mine. It often has a different position in various keyboard layouts, so I'll consider changing it to Shift.
