About

Teleport between dimensions to satisfy the Guardian's thirst for shapes! Ascend through all 10 stages to attain transcendence!

How to Play

Tips

• The longer you spend in a room, the more perilous it is likely to become.
• If you find a room particularly difficult, use the nearest teleport shape to get out quickly, even if it doesn't take you directly to the next shape you need.
• Score high by activating the more dangerous node effects.

Some feedback I got for this suggested that it wasn't very clear how to play. So, I have added a beginners guide to the original post that hopefully someone will find helpful!

This game is such a pleasure, thank you for making it. One of my top favorites for the pico-8. I made this account to post this actually.

Thanks. I had very little feedback for this game, so it's good to hear someone actually liked it.

It's crazy that you haven't gotten feedback about this game. I have put so much time into it and I'm still not very good. I keep coming back to it. I am not a huge gamer but I feel like you should be super proud of this game. Also, I usually turn off video game music when I play but I just can't with this game because that song is such a banger!

boosted it on twitter again lol

This is amazing. I just want you to add one thing. Can you make the game able to get lives back using points? Other than that, this is the best game on this website that I have found.

Thanks for the nice comments. I didn't want to allow the player to get extra lives as some of the node combinations make the game a lot easier if you just want to complete all 10 stages. I think activating the red and white nodes is possibly the combination that provides the easiest route as it slows down all bullets. Another tip - sometimes it's best to grab a shape as soon as you enter a screen then exit quickly before it starts to fill with bullets.

Good to know! I actually beat the game twice now, using the node that bounces the shapes. This game was way easier than I thought. I didn't know that there would be only ten stages, so I just guessed that it was endless in stages.
