Overview: Synchronous is a 2D puzzle platformer game based around metal boxes that move synchronously. Different boxes have unique abilities. However, each metal box possesses a magnet that enables it to remain on any metal surface on command. (This is the main mechanic of the game.) Content: This game contains 49 meticulously crafted puzzle levels divided into five chapters , each featuring numerous gizmos and gadgets that must be navigated and utilized to reach the goal. Each level also contains an elusive collectible to reward creative thinkers. Some levels test primarily platforming skills, while others are solely puzzle-based. In the platforming levels, when one box is destroyed, the level must be restarted. This is not the case for the puzzle levels. If you think any level is miscategorized, please let me know. Chapter completion times are recorded, so after exploring the entire game, you can test your speed as well. Your progress, times, and collectibles are constantly saved, so you can always pick up right where you left off. Controls: The controls are explained here as well as in-game: Movement: Arrow keys / WASD / D-pad / Analog stick Jumping: Up arrow key / W / Space / South button (controller) Magnetizing: Down arrow key / S / Shift / West button (controller) Pause Menu: Escape Show Timer: T Development: This game is still in development , so I would love feedback and criticism on every aspect of the game. There are currently five layered music tracks implemented in the game plus a Title Theme . The game is continually being updated (though not consistently) and is currently at version beta 0.16 pre5 . It is available for Windows , Mac , and Linux . Feedback is welcome and appreciated! Thanks For Playing! - Rochester X
