The countdown pressure fits the theme really well. I liked how direct the goal feels, tho for me it got a little stressful to parse under time. Still had fun, good jam tension.

Really cool game! I've always wondered how people pull off that Superliminal-style perspective scaling trick, really fun to play with! The game got a little confusing at times as far as where to go, and the explosion sound at the end was frighteningly loud (clipping my speakers) but all in all this was really fun to play and made me want to see more of this kind of game!

I'm glad you liked it, also more information about the Superliminal effect can be found here https://github.com/FireDasher/Godoliminal

Oh also in case you didn't get it, the explosion is not the end, that's if you run out of time. You're supposed to complete all the puzzles and shut down the reactor.


Edit: You probably walked straight into the reactor core. 

DO NOT WALK STRAIGHT INTO THE REACTOR CORE WHEN YOU GET TO IT!!!! You're supposed to flick the levers on the nearby sign instead!!

You're not supposed to walk into the reactor, you're supposed to flick the levers on the nearby sign! If you heard the loud explosion sound, that means you lost!!!!

Developer

Walking into the reactor kills you! If you won, you would see a "The End" screen.

Neat concept, It reminds me of Portal a little bit. It's a good amount of content for the time length.
