UNDELETE.exe

The system is dying

Recover the files

You are a little floppy disk inside a computer that is slowly losing its integrity.

Jump through corrupted sectors, dodge failing hardware, recover lost files, and reach the extraction point before the system completely falls apart.

The deeper you go, the more unstable the machine becomes.

Walls glitch out, platforms disappear, lasers are.. lasers I guess. And eventually, the computer starts fighting back.

Recover the files. Reach the exit. Don't get deleted.

HOW TO PLAY

Keyboard

  • A / D or ← / → Move 
  • W/Space - Jump 
  • Shift - Dash 
  • WASD / Arrow Keys - Aim your dash

Touch

  • Left side - Move 
  • Tap the right side - Jump 
  • Swipe on the right side - Dash in that direction

Controller

I've stuffed controller code I had from an other project, it could work but didn't had the time to test it properly.

---------------------------------------------------------------

TEMP. FILE

Your dash creates a TEMP FILE.

The copy stays exactly where you dashed from and becomes solid. Use your old position as a platform.

Only one temporary copy can exist at a time.

Use crystals to restore your dash, letting you chain multiple jumps through the air.

---------------------------------------------------------------

RECOVER THE FILES

Lost files are scattered throughout the system.

Collect every file you can find before leaving a sector.

Once you escape a room, recovered files are safely added to your archive.

Recover every file in the game and unlock the Unstable Mode.

---------------------------------------------------------------

THE SYSTEM IS UNSTABLE

As the system decays, the environment begins to glitch and disappear. Touching unstable sections can start their decay, and hazards become increasingly unforgiving.
