Fixed a bug where Cole didn't run at the appropriate speed needed to reach a platform farther and taller than him, yet still, be able to reach farther and lower ones - Fixed a bug that caused Cole to jump over obstacles that were lower and closer to him, despite the fact that he can just fall and he'd land safely -

[ 2022-01-14 19:27:24 CET ] [ Original post ]

In this game, you play as 15-year-old Cole Andrews on a journey through a Virtual Isometric 3D world. He doesn't know exactly for sure how he got there, but all he knows is that he has to find a way out.

The only way to do so is to reach the emergency exit at the very top of the world. To reach the top, you'll have to go through many levels containing puzzles of varying difficulty, collect items to help you along the way, and surpass obstacles that will try to prevent you from making it to the end.

The world you are in isn't just a normal, euclidean, isometric world. It's a place built on illusion and visual tricks. In order to get past this and reach the end, you'll have to work with something special, perspective. More specifically, by rotating yourself 90 degrees at a time using a special item.

An area or item that seems far away can actually be up close just by turning 90 degrees in a certain direction.

Be warned! You won't always have this mechanic to help you out! You'll have to be smart and clever to beat every puzzle, obstacle, illusion, and more to get out of the Virtual World and back home to the real world.

The biggest thing to remember: "Everything is not what it seems..."

Good luck!
