A game about life lessons.

Built for Ludum Dare #27. The theme is 10 seconds.

WSAD to move, space to jump. Holding space will make you fall slower.

If anyone is having difficulty with levels I left in some tricks to make it easier:

Pressing 'y' will pause the timer.

Moving diagonally will essentially make you move at double speed.

Genres: action

Collision feels weird when you barely reach the platform you jump to. I like metaphorical gameplay!

That's fantastic - I love the repetition aspects: I wanted to work the idea of "repeating time" into my game too (I wanted that feel that your entry gives where you go "what? this just happened!") - but ran out of time (is that irony)? Anyhooo... really great game.

It reminds me of "Antichamber".

Reminds me of Antichamber as well, that's a good thing :) A bit more light would've been great.

relaxing and stressing at the same time, nice ambient and gameplay

The sound effects and art style really work well in establishing the atmosphere. I don't enjoy the jumping being as unforgiving as it is - leads to a lot more frustration than it needs to. The '10 seconds to complete the level' mechanic being the central point of the gameplay is a bit frustrating to me, too, when coupled with the difficulty of the first-person platforming. Nice use of truisms in each level, definitely adds an extra layer to the atmosphere.

Plays a bit like my own game, only this one makes a little more sense! Good job.

Falling makes me happy!

Very nice concept and levels and audio. I would have liked the life lessons to play a bigger role in the levels, not just as the theme.

Cool game that looks like it was inspired by Antichamber with the motivational posters. Controls/collision could use some tightening up but I really enjoyed the atmosphere!

Nice job and interesting concept! The straight bridge level gets a bit old after a couple of different iterations. The 10 second limit sadly doesn't do much for the game though.
