This is a large update, containing numerous changes. One major change is that the levels have been streamlined, made more interesting and sometimes replaced entirely. I played a lot of ‘Baba Is You’ over the break (awesome game btw), and really liked the pacing, apparent simplicity, ability to undo moves and fully visible state, so I tried to incorporate some of that.
All the text was weighing down time travel trainer, and not really adding much, so I really tried to streamline that; there’s still text, of course, but now it shouldn’t get in the way of gameplay so much.
Most of the levels have been changed or replaced outright; there’s now less repetition of known techniques, more puzzles that challenge you with something different.
Other changes:
- Tweaked throw controls to play nice with mac
- Tweaked general throw controls
- Changed how mouse-view works; now shows which gates connect to which buttons/plates
- Fixed various graphical glitches
- Added a 'reload from 2 time machines ago' option
- Enabled Esc and other hotkeys for use in menu system
- Made most maps initially revealed
- Did some research on mac + linux compatibility; nothing definite yet though
