The first minute, side by side

Players can refund a game they played for under two hours, so a slow opening costs sales. Below are five tricks that get players to the fun in the first minute. Each one shows the same short moment from a tiny platformer twice. The left side is without the trick and the right side is with it.

Each side starts from a pretend game launch. The clock counts game-time seconds until play, meaning the first stomp on a slime, this game’s core action. The slow side may run sped up so the loop stays short, and its ⏩ N× speed badge says so. Use Play it yourself to try either side at real speed.
