Looping Dream

💭 Game Description

🕹️ How to Play

Use your intuition… and these keys 👇

• W / A / S / D → move and climb

• Space → jump

• W → interact with ladders and vines

• R → restart the game (in case you get stuck or just want a fresh start!)
  

Collect all the coins scattered through this looping world. Watch your step — things may look normal, but space doesn’t quite behave like it should 😵‍💫

Expected playtime: 15–30 minutes

🌌 About the Game

This is my first-ever platformer! 🥳
All the code was written within this jam’s timeframe — and it was quite a ride.

Originally, I had thought of creating multiple levels, each based on wild geometries — spheres, Möbius strips, maybe even a Klein bottle.
But… reality (and time limits) hit me hard. I spent way too long tweaking jump physics and smooth movement 😅 and realized my brain wasn’t quite fast enough to build a proper puzzle for a Klein bottle in 48 hours.

So here we are — just one humble level, set on a torus, where up wraps to down and left wraps to right.
Maybe it’ll be the start of something bigger later — “Dream Geometry: The Series”, who knows? 🌠
