New sprites by skai

Vine, by Patashu, in Chapter R (WIP)
Yet another new contributor, skai! So far she's made some sprites for post-game elements (replacing my shoddy devart) and a few custom puzzles and I'm excited to see some more in the future.
- New graphics for Floorboards, Grates, Phase Wall Green Even/Odd and Checkpoints. Added skai to Credits.
- Time Colours Purple/Blurple/Yellow are renamed Crimson/Teal/Purple, respectively. Renamed The Yellow Pit and its (Remix) to The Purple Pit.
- Level Editor Instructions now says 'Clear Level'.
- Fix that Chapter 2?'s dark background persisted after pressing 'Community Levels'.
- Level Editor tile picker: Give the other Repair Stations names.
- Chapter R (WIP): Add Blue Ghost, Anchor Lock, Empty Tower, Vine, Vine [VAR1], Pushing It Blue, Makeshift Ladder. Update Dig, Mechanical Arm.
- The Cutting Room Floor: Rename Acrobatics? [VAR1] to Isometric Exercise.
- Formless Exploration: Add Dead Air [Act 2].
- Journeyless Fragments: Open in Community Levels. Add Kelrn Ocrwh, Kelrn Ocryt, Normality, Maneuver.
- Unit test mode is 10x faster. I didn't have to make any performance improvements or do anything technically difficult, I just wanted it to be 10x faster, so now it is.
[ 2025-07-08 14:22:55 CET ] [ Original post ] Background
Heavy and Light are maintenance robots working onboard the Chrono Station, a fantastical installation in low orbit that takes time from where it's needed and transfers it to where it's needed.
Tragically, the station has suffered from chronic understaffing - so when one day the Chrono Helix catastrophically fails, they're the only robots available to deal with the crisis. Flung to the edge of the Chrono Station, they find that the Chrono Station has been blown into hundreds of puzzles, containing increasingly exotic matter the closer you get to the Reactor Lab - and that their timelines have been isolated from one another. They can now move and rewind independently, and learning every consequence and nuance of this will be necessary to make it back in time and fix things before they get worse.

Features
A turn based, tile based thinky puzzle game. No dexterity elements or hidden information - Build a mental model of how the game works to succeed.
A two time manipulation puzzle game. Heavy and Light have their own timeline which can independently record and rewind actions, allowing you to get into and out of situations that would be impossible if there were only one Undo button.
Hundreds of puzzles across 12+ chapters, each one introducing new elements, from being able to break and come back to life to exotic matter that alters the very concept of rewinding itself.
Copy, paste and scrub through replays, so you'll never go 'wait, I forgot how I did that' again.
Gain Insight mode. Stuck? Check out a puzzle that's an easier or remixed version - you still have to solve it yourself, and you might gain the necessary insight in the process.
Advanced and post-game puzzles, for those ready to master space-time itself.
A level editor and Community Puzzles tab. Hundreds of custom puzzles made by fans, and if you come up with something I haven't seen before, it can be included in the game!
