Description

Train Loop is a hidden clue game where the player must search a train car for clues and solve them before time runs out and the train crashes. The game’s simple mechanics allow players to move left, move right, jump and throwing objects out of the way to uncover hidden clues. When a clue is found, the player engages in a puzzle to collect it, triggering a time loop that resets the clock for the next clue. The level is completed once all clues are gathered.

I must say, this game features an engaging time-loop mechanic and intuitive controls. However, the shift from clue hunting to Tetris puzzles feels somewhat disjointed, interrupting the flow. The repetitive nature of the Tetris puzzles might become monotonous; introducing varied challenges or random elements could enhance replay value.

Great work!

Thanks for the feedback! An updated version, introducing more content from the purple voice in your head, is now available to play in the browser – including some randomized lines during the Tetris game!

Enjoyed Playing it. Good Design Concept

Wow, this game is a blast!🤯 The movement works well, and the art style is top-notch. I loved how the UI enhanced the experience. Discovering clues felt like a fun adventure, even if I occasionally had some unexpected collisions along the way 😂. It's clear that this game could be even more amazing with a bit more polish. The core gameplay is solid. Great work! 🤗
