'The puzzle platformer where you explore a world within a snapshot!'

If you have any performance issues, you can also download the Windows version from itch! The jam version is a lot harder though.


If it seems like you got a snapshot that doesn't exist, take a picture to fix it!!!

I wasn't a fan of how the camera controlled, but I really enjoyed everything else

the concept is very interesting, i just wish that there was a better way to control the frame while moving around

I can't tell which levels have been beaten in the level select. If you take a photo in the level, the level select shows a photo for that level whether it was correct or not

Huh, this is quite the interesting one! I'll admit my first impression of it isn't the greatest: the controls for both the player and the frame are very finicky, the stage layouts are very intimidating at first with so many ways to go but with a tiny time limit, there are lots of frustrating obstacles that get in the way like barely-visible spikes and seeker drones that come from off-screen, and I don't like having to go through a forced tutorial before I can set my options or replay the game.

Nevertheless, in spite of these myriad issues, I thought the concept of racing to find a matching spot on the map for a picture was very intriguing and somehow found myself getting addicted to mastering the controls and beating level after level! In a way, this is a pretty good game jam result, in that while it's very rough in terms of execution, there's definitely some gold buried underneath here that's begging to be mined and polished so that it shines brilliantly in the sun!

Loved this game! so simple so there was little room for confusion, with a nice soundtrack and at times you could just glide through levels.
