Timecapsule

Description
A game created by Jacob "sereneworx" Zinman and Michael Yamada!

Timecapsule is a game where you save the future world from the evil corporation, Evilcorp, Inc.! Evilcorp's evil men are out to get you!

You explore your great homeworld, in the search for parts of a mechanism that will save the future!

In short, a platformer. A platformer so difficult it will make your head explode.

Sick sick sick! Love the character designs and the trees. You need some lovely music to go with your lovely pixels.

Work in progress video, music included!

I recorded this in a virtual machine, so my controls were somewhat laggy. Hence all the unnecessary deaths.

Great video, this is looking good. Fantastic music also, very bubbly, put me in a good mood. If I make a suggestion towards the music... The drums feel a little out of place to me, since they're more real sounding then the other sounds being using. Maybe if you passed them through a bitcrusher to grain them up a little then they're fall into place more. Just a suggestion.

Great work guys!!  :coffee:

Marry me.  :-*

The colors, the design, the music, everything is so simple, pure, and looks so cool.

I love this approach. And the result, too.

Ah wow, great work. That music really reminds me of something. It's got a really nice cosy, warm feel to it, as does the look of the game. Is there some kind of translucent noise layer over everything?

Your music.

Too good.

Your music has such a nice warm weirdness to it. It is like the daily routine of a favorite relative.

It reminds me of Mars.

The artistic direction (both visual and audio) of this game is sort of blowing my mind.
