Instructions:

  1. AD or Arrow Keys to move
  2. W, Space, or Up Arrow to jump
  3. Gold crystals end game
  4. Collect blue crystals to time warp
  5. The mirror and normal version of you can collide with walls

Stuck? Need help? The blue crystals confusing you?

If you are stuck on a level with blue crystals these tips might help you:

  1. The blue crystals will send your mirror counterpart to exactly 1 second ago.
  2. This allows you to bypass certain walls that the mirror clone was colliding with.
  3. There is a ghost mirror clone that shows you exactly where the mirror clone will end up if you were to collect the crystal at that second.
  4. You can move while the time warp is happening to change the offset further.
  5. The time warp lasts exactly 1 second.
  6. Good luck!

Description:

This is a game made for the Wowie 4.0 Jam. Refract was made in less than 3 days! I tried to keep the quality of levels a priority or quantity. In this game you and your reflection must navigate the level. Use time crystals to revert your reflection to 1 second ago thus allowing you to move around obstacles your weren't able to previously! This fits the theme Cooperate with AI because you have to cooperate with a time traveling version of the player!

Nice game. I would wish that once the warp mechanic is introduced it should be necessary for all subsequent levels. Otherwise it's just a guessing game about which mechanic to use.

I believe it is used for all levels? We’re you able to beat a level without using it?

There were some levels where just randomly jumping around solved it and I think I didn't use the mechanic.

But honestly, I don't know... ;)
