In this game you must complete 5 levels and destroy all enemies in your way. The catch? You have to kill them in the future, to protect yourself in the past!
This is my first Ludum Dare entry, and not a serious attempt, so please don't be too harsh! xD
Edit: Added a JAR file for those without Java 8. This version does not include the background music.
Fun concept. The present/past self seemed to sometimes double jump even when future self did not but otherwise pretty well executed. Not very challenging but still a fun playthrough.
It took me a while to realize how I was actually controlling my past self, but once I did...I was like "a ha" and the game got really fun. Cool tunes also. Only complaint is the lack of feedback when you hit collide with an enemy.
Very interesting concept. I liked it and appreciate that you didn't make the movements of the other self an exact copy. That being said, I found myself in situations where the main difficulty of the level was trying to get my past self to meet up with my current self ;)
Pretty cool idea! Controls are ok and it plays alright, though as other people have said your 'past self' seems to have a mind of its own sometimes. Nice job overall.
Getting "A java exception has occurred" when running either jar file. Zip file has been extracted and I haven't done anything to screw with the file structure, will try updating java on my end and running it again.
Regarding the game: Interesting concept, but I feel as though it wasn't explored to its full potential. In it's current form, it feels a bit like one of those missions where you have to protect a useless AI and escort them from A to B. Adding a few puzzle mechanics etc could make this a real gem. Overall though, a very solid entry and kudos on the music.
I noticed that the past self got desynced from the future self a lot so it would be sweet if you fixed that
