Looped

Overview:

This game was made for the GMTK Game Jam 2025 for the theme LOOP.

Looped is a normal platformer where every time you finish the level loops back but you have changed, the goal is to break out of the loop as fast as possible before you are ruined by your messed up abilities and can not go back.

Keep in mind that while I had 96 hours to make a game I only used about twelve of them because of my stupid decision to scrap this and make a car game, but I eventually came back to this idea.

I also had to scrap 99% of the gameplay due to scope creep and just a giant scope to begin with.

The original idea was a platformer where when you finish the level loops back and you get to chose something to happen to both the level and the player most of which pile up, the changes could be as normal as adding enemies to as complicated as making you control two players at the same time and all have different abilities. As you see, scope creep....
