I'm thinking of creating a console version of this game.
I would appreciate it if you could share your thoughts or leave a comment.

That was really clever and fun. It took me a while to get used to the controls, but I can't see how it could have been any better with the number of buttons. puzzles were great and graphics were really nice (doing colours changes for different modes was very effective).

More levels please


2

that's super awesome! the only thing is i accidentally recorded over my tall jumps and got softlocked :/ but if you create a console version of this, i would totally play it.


2

The concept of recording and replaying is very original. A bit hard to adapt at the beginning but then fun to play. Also i like the graphical design!


3

Holy shit, a really original concept made well


1

Really cool game! Well done :)


2

This game gives me a sense of fun and joy. I like the graphics of this game


1

I'm obsessed with this. This concept is so expandable. You also taught it very clearly and made me feel like a huge genius. Absolutely wonderful work.


3

excellent take on the ‘time control’ mechanic - second other comments that an expanded level set is needed!

Fun game to speedrun

@JROMHacks A time in the 1:1X's took me quite a few tries, but I eventually got a 1:18, just a little bit faster than your time. (not that I was trying to beat your time specifically; I just wanted a sub-1:20 time.) Below is a GIF of the full run:

@Kaius I am speed


106 baby

Me gusta tu juego :)


1

Very cool game. You could probably make many more fun puzzles using this mechanic.


1

a fun experience, the main mechanic is super clever. There's a lot of potential for crazy puzzles and twists


1

love it! its a fun idea i beat it


1

very fun game! i'd really look forward to even more puzzles using this concept


2

NEW TERRITORIES FOUND 🙃


*if you ever wonder how I got into these, then:

just "think out of the box" from the first room you spawned.


2

Such a great little game! Surprisingly captivating

Love the mechanics


2

i found the secret rooms but im not sure how to actually get into them


4

@JROMHacks Sorry it took me a couple of weeks to get back to you (busy with other things, you know how it goes), BUT, after about half an hour of failed attempts...


I can conclude that I'm NEVER speedrunning this game again.


6

Checked the game out for about an hour and managed to beat it in under a minute! (after getting exactly 1:00 twice before that lol)

EDIT: Oops looks like I missed some strats looking at the other posts from here, so you could definitely cut down on a few more seconds


1

Got a 1:10 on mobile. Currently relearning the controls on computer so I can record a gif, but props to you lot for figuring out that route.

Speedrunning aside, this is such a good game. I will say, most of the game feels like a tutorial with not much room for error - that's why people are asking for more levels - but the mechanics are so unique and well executed. The are is also incredible, the black and white style is done so well. Can't wait to see what you do next :)

@Kaius @Vexxter
Game, Set, Match.

I expect this record to be tied eventually but I'll be surprised if it's ever topped.


2

I found a room by getting out of bounds and falling to my doom.

To get out of bounds try using the cassette tape against a top left corner of a room. I don't know how to replicate it, but I'll tell you that it was just to the left of the first use of the cassette tape.


1

found a backward route https://youtu.be/e2UoWyi-Ze4


1

please creat a game complete of any plataform,this idea is perfect,i certaly pay any cust for this game ps:i don`t speak inghis so sorry for my bad words


1

This was extremely clever, please make a sequel!


1

this took me hours


1

What a clever game!, it really gave me a nice surprise, the mechanics are really good, it's a shame that the game it's short, I hope see in the future a complete version or maybe more level, keep doing great games like this.


1

Broke The Game ._.


1

Very fun and original game! It would be nice to add more puzzles that are more challenging, but overall, excellent game.


1

GG on mobile!!!

Sorry for the graphics😅

great game! i hope to see more of this in the future.

it was my first game played at pico-8 :)


the game is entertaining


I figured out how to noclip lol


cool game concept i wish that there is some new levels soon

edit : welp there is no new levels :(


I hope there will be a full game with this concept some day. It's too cool of a concept to not be.


@Yoksven by the way i think the game maker forget about it


I'd just like to share that I think this is a fun mechanic to mess around with (proceeds to clip into a wall and die so I can spawn at the start with the tape)


As I'm playing every featured cart to curate a list of my favorite carts and then put them all into a tier list, this one is guaranteed to get like an S+.
God tier concept, can't wait for a steam release


After countless hours of grinding I got 59sec multiple times (with my own strats)
Now that I saw some runs from other comments 58 might actually be possible


1

55 seconds, could've done better imo


@JROMHacks looks like I topped your record


1

I'M SO DONE WITH THIS
This has to be the best run I've ever pulled. 54 seconds
Nothing can outstand this unless there's another strat that could potentially be faster.

@JROMHacks @Kaius @Vexxter @apechemist good luck if you want to attempt beating this ;)


Wonderful game concept, great level design (guiding the player), with beautiful execution.
Thanks for sharing this! 🌟


This was so fun to play! I initially thought this was a standard platformer, but I was amazed by the time reversing mechanic. It kinda reminded me of Ekko from league :D


Found a new strat that saved me a second, and that means:

NEW WORLD RECORD!

Honestly I'm really happy about this run and I hope I find more time skips like this
