2/15/2023 Update

  I've been working on what was once "Concept" for almost three years now, and am very close to having a more or less complete first version what is now The Last Question ready to share.

  I'm working on a full new itch page (and hopefully after getting all my licensing figured out, a steam page) , but before I fully release the game, I need a few people to make sure the 0.98 version I have uploaded to this page is working, playable, and interesting enough to take forward.

  If you're interested in a sci-fi action platformer, you may really like this game! I will send $20 to the first 5 people to upload and share a full game run (Venmo/Paypal). I will also give full playtest credit (as well as a short message in the credits of your choosing) to anyone who does the same!

  The art and writing in this game varies from level to level in terms of completeness, but the "main line" of the game in terms of story is largely done. A few levels need to be overhauled visually (one still needs to be finished), but most of these are pretty close to finished products (hopefully!)

  Would love to hear any and all thoughts, and will hopefully have some more interesting things to share once I have the final game together!

  Below is the game description from 11/1/2021

  ________________________________________________________

  You awaken in a derelict laboratory, unsure of how you got here. Unsure of who you even are.

  The civilization responsible for your arrival has all but vanished, with only the ruins of their society remaining, orbiting the black hole at the center of the galaxy.

  As entropy closes in around the last bastion of life in the Milky Way, you must discover the secrets of this world to save yourself, and all of existence.

  ________________________________________________________

  Concept is a sci-fi themed, grapple hook based, action platformer. It explores a world filled with advanced technology, mysterious characters, and secrets hidden behind every corner. The more you explore in this game, the more you will understand what occured that led to the disappearance of the most advanced civilization in the known universe.

  This game has been a labor of love and a mental safe haven for me over the past few years. This 3.0 version is about as stuffed with content as I can make it in its current state, and I hope to convert the ideas and levels seen here into a fully fledged production release sometime over the next months and years. I desparately need your feedback to know what to improve, what to fix, and what to emphasize going forward.

  If you have around an hour of free time and are willing to take a leap of faith on a fresh experience, give this game a chance and I promise you will not be disappointed. The first few levels are simple, tutorial-like challenges. By the end of the game, I guarantee you will be faced with new platforming ideas you haven't experienced before.

  Thank you to all of you for the feedback and support over the past year+. You can find a video walkthrough of an older build with timestamps and puzzle solutions here.

  Godspeed
