Lois Loopin
Lois Loopin is a classic 2D platformer with mechanics revolving around loop, specifically spatial loop and death loop. Building upon basic 2D platformer movement, It introduces a new feature called “Loopand interaction”. It is a movement feature in which it could be triggered when a player is near a “Loopand”. A Loopand is an entity existing in the map, shaped like a circle. When a player is inside Loopand’s region, it can initiate Loopand interaction through input. The execution of Loopand interaction will pull the player near Loopand and bump onto it while Loopand will be triggered. The auxiliary behavior of triggered Loopand depends on the Loopand, which could activate behaviour such as spatial loop. Loopand is a medium between accessing new mechanics while having supplementary movement mechanics that spice up the level. Pertaining to the death loop, the Loopands are spawn on death, inciting level that is impossible on the first run but possible when you utilise your failed attempts. Always remember, Have Fun.
Lois Loopin is made by Richie Kho Hui Huan, with the some aids from Kenney's Game Asset.
Install instructions
Just play it in the browser.
However, if you are on some evil browser such as safari that automatically kills the app due to heavy memory usage, you can try the downloaded version. It is very unfortunate that something like this exists and I've unfortunately experienced myself.

I got stuck on section so I couldn't finish but it's super fun! I love the concept. The art is extremelly cute. Yellow loop was not intuitive at first but when I got it it felt super nice. I think you can really build uppon this concept. It would beneffit on having a little bit more music variety
Very cool concept, although i feel like some concepts (such as the yellow loopands) could've been explained better.
Besides that, I love the concept of using past versions of yourself to help progress :D
It should have some more explicit visual cues. Many things got scrapped due to time constraint, only to realise how important it is :P
Alright, a had a little problem at first with the yellow thingy but i just did not understood the mechanic. The game feels really good tho ! I think its just difficult enough to cause you problems without keeping you stuck forever (which is for me, a good difficulty.).
That jump animation is CLEAN! Loved what i saw of the game (couldn't go trough the yellow loopand)! Regardless, had a good time!
