Rewind

The game

You die, the world rewinds, and your previous self keeps repeating your last run. In this VHS-flavoured time-clone platformer, the only weight heavy enough to hold a pressure plate and open a door is you — the you on tape. Six tracks layer up from one ghost to three, all wrapped in purple-and-teal scanlines, tracking-error tears, a rolling timecode and PLAY/REC/REW transport glyphs.

How to play

• Arrow keys (or A/D/W/Space) move and jump your live self.
• R rewinds: your run so far becomes a ghost that replays it. If the last moment of the take was standing on a plate, past you keeps holding it — the HUD labels it ■ PLATE.
• A plate holds its linked door open only while a body stands on it. Use a ghost as the weight, then walk your live self through.
• E discards the current take, Q pops the last ghost, P or Esc pauses.
• Touching spikes or falling kills you: the tape auto-rewinds and the take is lost (ghosts you already laid survive). Reach the OUT portal on the far right to clear the track.
• On phones the same controls appear as an on-screen thumb pad with REW and Q buttons.
