epolevne [browser]

Make your way to the exit in each level by planning your route to activate all the switches in Epolevne, the latest puzzle platformer by Kultisti.

  1. Fun game. Got much easier when I realized you can't run off a platform.

  2. I don't know if it's my fingers or my browser, but I can't jump up-left. The other three directions are fine. Makes it impossible to play.

  3. Anonymous, if you're trying with arrow keys, try with w-a-s-d

  4. The angled jumps are painful initially. But I gave up on the moving platforms.

  5. i've long been in the habit of reading nonsense titles backwards or looking for anagrams, though I didn't get it until the end.
    actually no I still don't

  6. Meh...it was okay, but sort of disappointingly easy. Definitely not a "puzzle" platformer, though. The emphasis was wholly on platforming, with only a mild amount of planning your route, which was generally way too open to be called puzzley.

  7. Yeah, definitely a backward title. On the developer's website https://itch.io/c/1764030/games- , it even has the tagline, "pick up the epolevne". But of course, "pick up the envelope" makes zero sense as it relates to the game, unless I'm missing something obvious. Or maybe the developer was creating the game, but couldn't come up with a clever title and there was an envelope on the ground and someone was trying to vacuum the carpet and said, "hey, pick up the envelope" and the title of the game was born!

  8. Never mind. I confess I didn't actually finish the game, but just now watched a walk through and there is indeed an envelope!

  9. About the Jumps.

    It looks like the game / interface / keyboard is only reading the first 2 key strokes.

    Moving diagonal = 2 Keys. Jump 3th key, He wouldn't jump
    Moving Sideways = 1 Key, Ad Jump = 2 Keys Move Diagonal by adding up or down is 3 keys
    And he would not turn.

    Working for me was:
    Move sideways + jump. ( 2 keys )
    Release Jump key as soon you are airborne.
    Add up or down to go diagonal.

  10. @LongPeter - 3-key inputs worked fine for me. I'm using Google Chrome.
