how the f do people make it in 3 seconds?

like I almsot cant make it in 10 seconds! :O

(+1)

Practice, and using the upgrades to your advantage. If you get the super boost twice, you can angle your first boost jump to end up right in the middle cross through area. Then if you have a Z turbo + invincibility while using it, you can do the boost, z through the middle, hop down, and z across the finish line in under 4 seconds. Then if you get move faster and fall faster you can end up sub-3

My game soft locked at this state

Image isn't loading for me, but if it's that you died right at the end of the timer that glitch is known, just refresh the page.

This would go SO HARD as a multiplayer game.

wait that would be sick

round 1 sub-6 seconds, send help. THE GAME IS BEATABLE WITHOUT A SINGLE UPGRADE.

please explain how

I did it on first try! fun game, it looked generic at furst but more fun and challenging as attemps and upgrades advanced!

ok i'm sick of adding messages alongside these and i start to feel like a spammer but sub-40 total time man

If you go midair for whatever reason, such as jumping, falling, or super jumping, you can press a button to jump quickly and do a double jump, even without the upgrade. Not very useful,  unless you forget to jump on the ledge before the second half.

Getting closer to sub-2.5. Not even optimized upgrades.

Very fun and addictive!

I believe that the road to sub-2.5 is speed x6, higher super jump,  and dash. THE DREAM IS WITHIN REACH, LADS

you mean speed x5?

(1 edit)

i just realized you can't get dash so just no dash, speed x6 (there are other upgrades yknow, i've only gotten it once) and super jump x2

You can damn well bet I'll burn you with my torch, khaos.

(also i'm pretty sure that the spike thing you posted was patched but i wouldn't count that as a full-on update)

I chose the hat.  I chose the boots.  I have no regrets.

Awesome game, genius.

umm this doesn't seem right and potentional for faster round 1

Extremely fun! Although I feel it would be even better in my opinion if the timer never reset and you had to complete a set amount of loops in 5 minutes. That way you would get a lot more value from checkpoint and not messing up at the start!

I disagree. The entire game can be beaten in under 2 minutes incredibly easily.

(+1)

The loop amount can be like, 25?

you may be the one to take your torch into the cave but I'll be damned if I'm not there with you

also why take dash if you don't take fall speed

super jump x2

dash x2

fall speed x1

move speed x3 

and perfect execution

sub-11 round 1

how

Why would I reveal my secrets to my rival?

ok fine

move forward for 0.1 seconds at the start, jump, jump again, go to the edge of the single-block platform, jump onto the higher-elevated part of the next, jump, jump past the spike onto the next platform, hug all the walls 'till the moving spikes, wait until the millisecond they start going down on the bottom row, book it

And I'll keep on going deeper.

Speed x5 (Yes, you can get the speed upgrade a fifth time, it's "dude, this is too fast", I was surprised too), Higher Super Jump, Dash

Khaos, no need to apologize. You can be the one who broke the barrier into sub-3 all you want, but I'll always be the one who lit a torch and ventured into it.

I'm so sorry

I will always reign superior in this game. I have mastered every little detail as perfectly as can be. You will never best me. For long, at least.

you may have broken my record but I will always be the first to get sub 3 unless an update will come out

at least i got boots and hat

round 9...

sub 3 seconds LETS GO!

good job khaos

...Why. WHY?! WHY MUST YOU BEST ME?! WHY MUST YOU FORCE MY EGO TO GO THROUGH A THOUSAND YEARS OF TORTURE AND SUFFERING JUST REGAIN THE RECORD?! WHY?!?! YOU MONSTER!

yes!!

lets go


wowzers

My game froze when dying as the time limit ended. This also happened with two other comments. Link 1 Link 2

edit: oh its known

Love the music!!

As an esteemed individual who has gotten a total time below 50 seconds, I shall reveal my strategy.

Round 1: Just wing it.

Round 2: Take Double Jump, Super Jump, or Dash. Double Jump is the fastest, but will slow down the setup for the strat. Super Jump is imo, best in the long run.

Round 3:  Take Super Jump or Dash depending on which you don't have, if you took Double Jump Super Jump is better.

Round 4: Take Higher Super Jump or Invincibility Dash. Invincibility will make going through sawblades easier, but it's not required.

Round 5: Take the one you didn't last round. Do not go to Highest Jump.

Round 6-10: Take whatever you want; throughout these rounds you should get 3-5 seconds on average, I'd recommend getting movement speed to "move even faster", and not getting "move EVEN faster" and above.

Edit: There's 9 rounds, not 10.

1: 5:00

2: 3:00

3: 2:00

4: 1:00

5: 0:45

6: 0:30

7: 0:20

8: 0:15

9: 0:10

I've decided you're wrong because I have the faster time.

So funny but I'll take it.

To the person who asked if round 3 higher super jump would be better, no, as getting dash and going through the sawblades with 2 super jumps is faster.

Bro this game is SOOO GOOD, only thing i would inprove is showing the buttons for choosing an ability

Why does it use so much memory 

Wow, what a good game. Simple but addicting. Very well done! And the music was good too

why is it tagged as roguelike?

(-1)

It is both a roguelike and not a roguelike, as it follows metroidvania mechanics, but it doesn't have 'permadeath' of sorts, but death could also be portrayed as running out of time, instead of the character 'dying' and respawning at a checkpoint or the start

love this game

move faster x2, fall faster x1, invincible dash, double jump, super jump x1 and the most important COOL HAT




(1 edit)

move even faster

triple jump (double jump also works)


edit: I have achieved sub 4. is this the record?

nuh-uh
