Platformer mini-game demo
🕑 Added 2018-08-01 13:44:01 +0000 UTCKurin, being the self-proclaimed genius she is, built a hacking tool that will allow Abbey to mess around with consoles all around the asylum.
Each console will send you to a different platforming mini-game where you'll assume control of your little hack helper program : Helm.
With the almighty power of running, jumping, biting walls and plopping down on your padded butt, you'll have to avoid the watchful eye of the asylum's anti-hacking bot as you look for an access to those juicy classified data no patients should be allowed to see!
This demo features five levels of increasing difficulty with the first one being meant to be really easy and the last one being outright evil.
There is an in-game timer that will allow you to see how fast you're able to complete each level. If you feel so inclined, we would love to hear about your personal times and experience, either in the comments below or on the game's discord : https://discord.gg/vsJZjJQ
Also, THIS IS BEST PLAYED WITH A CONTROLLER.
While it is possible to play with a keyboard, we strongly encourage you to plug a controller in if you have one, it can make a world of difference on whether you enjoy the controls or not.

P.S : We are aware of a slowdown problem in a couple of levels, these are tied to the way torchlight cones are currently coded, Sealfield is working on a fix.

Ooh, I get it now! Was just me bein' dumb after all! I don't currently own a controller to test if it's better, but I'm not having any difficulty with it on keyboard. You did good!
The butt pound is that second mini jump, it gives you some momentum upward when you use it. Keyboard does make it hard to use, though.
Everything was alright until I got to the last level and it said I can do a second mini jump while jumping. I just couldn't figure out how to do it, and kept doing that butt pound move instead. I dunno if I'm just dumb or if it's cause of playing on the keyboard though.
What I notice is that Helm is maybe a little too sticky on the walls. She also floats quite a bit when jumping off walls, making the controls seem delayed. I have also noticed that on occasion the double jump skips the little extra jump going straight into the Plopping straight down. I've tried this with both a controller and a keyboard, If possible, having a feature for keyboard players to change their control setup might help. Just to help with personalizing gameplay options in the future.
