A Simple Puzzle Game With Multiverse Time Travel - Induction!

[@Aliensrock]

Of course, I'm not going to share all my time travel secrets.

[@briansun9261]

cool

[@Haloguy7]

Ive seen this one before, its a classic!

time travel bloxorz game

[@cormacsmall9442]

Awesome game. Would definitely like to see more.

Day 26 of asking Tyler to play Magic Survival

[@notchmath9642]

There was one game I played years back where the concept was a platformer you played backwards through time, so you could “jump up” as high as you wanted because in reality you were falling, but if you fell too far you lost because you caused a paradox since you couldn’t have jumped that high. It was cool and I’ve always wished I could remember the name to play it again.

[@014Darkness]

The only one I can think of is Braid, but it doesn't quite fit the description

[@milkman4407]

That is EPIC

[@DamascusDerk]

Thanks for Playing (by Alkemi)? Or maybe Braid?

[@lexoz7778]

was it called thanks for playing

[@ethanboone2816]

Pause Ahead?

[@JohnTK]

I love how when you finish a level it shows you the complete assembled linear timeline for that level on the menu

[@CalebTerryRED]

Also, it shows the timeline as it was in its final state, in case it changes like in the last level of the video. This version of time travel is so cool (and consistent!). you can change the past, but only if the new timeline also causes itself. It's like a mandatory bootstrap paradox!

[@trueNahobino]

This game looks really clever, especially what happens around 13:33! I was so surprised by that.

[@thischannelisforcommenting5680]

Tyler: "This game is so clever!" Tyler: "Oh no, this game is so clever"

[@Eknoma]

What was surprising about the simplest of logic?

[@rainingwings449]

@@Eknoma Because not all games implement it

[@Eknoma]

@@rainingwings449 You play a lot of time travel puzzle games?

[@trueNahobino]

@@Eknoma Yeah it's simple logic. I just didn't expect the game to care about it lol

[@desipug]

This game did time travel puzzles so good, most of the time time travel puzzle games that I’ve played use the same puzzles over and over again with just more steps, the puzzles don’t become hard they just become tedious, but mechanics such as the paradox in this games just adds more to the game overall and makes the puzzles more challenging

[@lordawillo1019]

Just remember everyone: if you're feeling stuck right now in life, it's just because youre the past self, pausing for a moment so your future self has a platform to stand on ☺️

[@samuelding7854]

That’s a really neat motivational quote

[@VenThusiaist]

barely motivated, horrible joke. 10/10

[@talis2513]

That's so cute XD

[@balls_gaming]

I hate morivational quotes, especially under a random gaming video. But damn it this made me smile, so for that, i like your comment, and give you a worthless internet point

[@ThePokeyouth]

I'm so glad you're trying out time travel-esque puzzle games! I heavily recommend Timelie, a similar game with time travel but you can fast forward/rewind to any point in time. Much less frustrating system but really elegant puzzles

[@arichiquabtd8092]

After Understand I didn't think I'd see another puzzle game so simple yet so complex and yet here I am amazed. And 13:15 oh my god that couldnt have been a better reaction, felt the exact same way when I saw that mechanic lmao. This is definitely going to be an incredible series.

[@the_nick_knack]

Absolutely loving the puzzle design here. And the visuals are so appealing!

[@addorall]

I really appreciate the work you put in for us to give us daily content and how you always manage to keep things fresh and interesting. You’ve introduced me to so many games I would have otherwise never even known about or knew I would enjoy. Even the ones i’m not a fan of that you upload you still make them really entertaining. It’s really awesome how you promote so many different talented indie developers! Much love Tyler, thank you for doing what you do.

[@circuitgamer7759]

I kind of want to make a VR version of this kind of mechanic, where you see yourself in VR doing the thing you did previously... Could kind of look like the time travel video by Corridor. I don't have the experience to make it yet, and I think it would be far better if you were physically walking in real life (think omnidirectional treadmill), but the concept could be fun to explore in the future.

[@justthomas2488]

I’m actually liking this one, simple and tough puzzles

[@DatHypnoboi]

This feels like a more refined version of the "Thinking With Time Machine" Portal mod, nice to see developers working with this interesting mechanic

[@ethanmacdonald8568]

Don't forget portal reloaded

[@Ze_eT]

@@ethanmacdonald8568 Portal Reloaded is a completely different type of time travel. TWTM (and Induction) is about time travelling just enough so that your past self can do something while you are there, with the room being the same. Portal Reloaded is a combination of "moving something in the past moves it in the future" and alternate rooms (the future rooms being decayed).

[@BLVGamingY]

yes, tho a better word for it may be recording yourself

[@astraljava8500]

Ah yes a "simple" Game where you learn too time travel

[@DanielLenrd]

spoilers: it's not that simple

[@aleksandersabak]

I was sceptical for the most part of this video, but 13:07 convinced me to stop watching an wait to play this game for myself. The mechanics up to that point were just standard timey-wimey game stuff, but requiring a consistent flow for every past self is what did it for me. Too bad I can't watch that to the end.

[@aleksandersabak]

After playing; I am so amazed with this game! I love how the title explains the core concept: finding solutions based on the assumption that you already have a solution. This premise gives a lot of room to create my favourite type of puzzles: recursive ones. Highly recommend.

[@PhilBushay]

damn, I went from generally indifferent about this game from the first few levels to being on the edge of my seat by the first few minutes. What great game design and mechanics.

[@Takinghydra]

You have gone from my top 5 KZbinrs to probably my favorite person to watch. I find myself giddy to learn about the new puzzle games and it’s mechanics. Keep up what your doing! I love it!

[@waybossguys]

This reminds me of The Company of Myself, one of my favorite flash games! Great video :)

[@kosbebot6360]

It's less disorienting than the last one, that's already a huge improvement. x)

[@AceFuzzLord]

I can definitely agree that time travel, not just in puzzle games but action platformers as well, is one of my least favorite mechanics ever. You hit the nail on the head when you said it's either too samey or complicated or something like that. I've never played a puzzle game where it's been implemented well enough to make it enjoyable

[@invertedmind8937]

reminds me of the flash game "The Company of Myself", had similar usage of building on the actions of ones past self, though was not as interesting in how it was used

[@Otori6386]

Was just about to comment this game as well, was a very short but sweet game with a sad story

[@SuperFashi]

the movements in this game reminds me of the game called Edge, which is another awesome puzzle platformer.

[@jeremaya3651]

This game is very neat great selection of puzzle games my man

[@Big_G_42069]

been loving all of the 'extra-dimensional' puzzles, you amaze me with both skill and quality of content, keep up the amazing work!

[@jasonnathanmason3547]

I love how this game includes paradoxes like when you make your past self fall so it can get to the thing, (it looks like this->🔳)but your past self cant get to the location where it would’ve time traveled when other games would be like “oh you made a paradox that could potentially break apart time and space.Eh, We don’t care”

[@hexvex6]

Watched this about half through and decided to give it a go myself. Things really get COMPLICATED

[@nicholaspelz9422]

Loved this content and the visuals are definitely enough to explain what happening

[@brightfox5040]

Time travel and Simple don’t fit together, I love it already

[@Anonymous20789]

EPIC game! You're a lot more adept than I, with the concepts featured in this game! Fun to watch for sure!

[@Rikri]

Oh hey, good to see you playing this game - definitely one of my favorite puzzle games I've played

[@michaelgrandchamp1067]

Very cool puzzle game with some super interesting mechanics for how simple it looks!

[@KingJbag]

Loving this tangent into mind bending games, keep it up man you're doing great 👌

[@harisbinkhalid2436]

I like this concept as every time travel thing is about not interacting with one self but this is the total opposite as it's all base of self interaction

[@naosgaming2d197]

13:30 when my head started hurting after hearing his explanation

[@MegaMisch]

Played this game back in the day and it was one of my favorite puzzle games ever. Sadly I got stuck on a later level and never got back to it. I'm really looking forward to your playthrough. :)

[@buttonasas]

The camera covers the button prompts Z and X that rewind (undo) and accelerate time. Very useful.

[@TraeKryzer]

6:04 "They do get more tricky with time." I see what you did there. 😏

[@sorenfarley]

There's a game called "Timelie" and it plays with time really interestingly i highly suggest you check it out!

[@Tydusis1]

This reminds me of a really old concept mod for Unreal Tournament 3 called Prometheus. It involved making copies of yourself to interact on a single timeline to solve puzzles. One of them was absolutely nuts since it required one copy to open a door, another to take a bullet, and another to take the shot while the guard is reloading.

[@ImNotMe224]

Loving the variety this week

[@ShinySwalot]

Thank you for always finding fun puzzle games Tyler!

[@maxhaibara8828]

This will be a great series

[@CielMC]

This game is great! I would love to see more of this!

[@robinlaszlo]

You did well with commentary on this considering the nature of it.

[@btf_flotsam478]

This could be a really interesting speedrun. Figuring out how long you need to do certain sections...

[@AmazingLube]

This game is amazing, please continue this project. ❤

[@lengiojef]

this game looks really fun! i would love to see more video's of this game!

[@aadenboy]

The movement of the cube reminds me of the mobile game "Edge"

[@wesleyewert1023]

there was a time travel puzzle similar in concept to this in ratchet and clank a crack in time. the idea is you would create several past selves to make your way to the end of a room. only a mini-game within the rest of the game but still lots of fun.

[@killstrike-zn1lv]

The reason why it's a paradox (when you don't have the cube end where you end) is because your past self never "makes" it to the end of the level, since it will repeat your moves backwards infinitely. While it can be assumed that it can, you can ensure it can if it ends up in the same location you ended your own loop. because their past self never makes it, and so on and so fourth, or rather, that it's not ensured, you have to make stable loops that always ensures that the past cube can always get to the end by repeating your exact moves.

[@turtleshelley7577]

I don't know if you really play fps games, but the effect and cause mission in titanfall 2's campaign is some of the most genius level design of all time imo. If you don't play it, I highly recommend looking it up. It's so good that people just call it "that level".

[@NStripleseven]

Another mind-bending puzzle game thing? Seems cool.

[@chrushernator]

Great commentary, made it easy to follow along

[@Bluemangrup]

This is very weird to watch, but a lot of fun when I understand what's going on

[@Matsupitsu396]

Finally new Puzzle game Series!

[@MagicAlidar]

There's a game about time travel that I played that had stealth in it, you would only control time by rewinding time to move at the right time. It's called "timelie".

[@enicaeduard]

Yay, no more videos posted at 7 am I can finally watch yours before school

[@bruvocado]

The paradox was a nice surprise, guess the TVA approves of this game

[@elfafa5007]

I understood nothing but keep it up man, I love your videos

[@gebs123]

The game that I thought you were going to say, when you mentioned time-travel games, was Braid. Although, it's more of a platformer with time-travel elements.

[@alfred4576]

This is like the clank puzzles in Ratchet and clank - a crack in time

[@vyllan34]

This is a fantastic game to watch u play Tyler

[@jakethereaper2060]

This game is already hurting my brain I love it

[@energymaster22]

Since you now have a VR headset I can finally reccomend "We Are One" Right now its only a free Prologue/demo on steam but it is really good and well worth a play!

[@kaeganmancuso]

That was a good game. I am looking forward to seeing more. Or picking it up for myself

[@piethedye3948]

theres a portal mod with the same mechanic called "thinking with time machine"

[@AhmedIbrahim-hs7kk]

This is such a fun time travelling game

[@johnshillingsburg2682]

I cant wait for the next Frostpunk Video/ Series.

[@DanielLenrd]

ayyy, you played my suggestion!

[@doomse150]

If you enjoy these time travel puzzles, I can recommend Hourglass (available on Steam). It has a similar concept with creating copies of yourself that execute moves you recorded. Personal bias disclosure: I was a backer for that games Kickstarter campaign

[@adumbchicken8022]

This seems awesome, can't wait to see more!

[@mikethewhizz5085]

I remember a flash game way back when that used the time travel concept, it was called Chronotron

[@sensory_eris_]

Awesome puzzle game

[@mae6797]

You should try "No Time", is also a time travel game, but is a open world one where the map changes

[@RTDelete]

I understand none of what's going on but it's fun to watch

[@d-chan4357]

This reminds me of the Clank puzzles from Ratchet&Clank: Crack in Time

[@doomvader5978]

I remember a cartoon network game for the show Johnny Test, I think called Tests of Time. It had very similar mechanics.

[@fireballfilms]

i think Aliensrock would enjoy the game "what lies in the multiverse"

[@minhtannguyen5448]

The ammount pauses I made to think "wait, what? How!"

[@RorekVSpiralWarrior]

This is basically Echoshift on PSP which was a great puzzle game on its own.

[@astrylleaf]

Funniest thing is, this wouldn't be so hard to time if time travel actually existed.

[@alkatron768]

Speedrunning this game should be fun

[@technorazor976]

This reminds me of the old little Flash game, Chronotron! It uses a very similar mechanic with 2D platforming, although the puzzles here seem a lot more puzzling.

[@AexisRai]

Hey Tyler, The level select is weird now. For some reason the dev drastically changed its design in update 1.1.0, from (imo) an aesthetically pure circular design to the partly flat thing you're seeing now. You can see what the old version was like in Steam by rightclicking it in your games list > Properties... > Betas > opt into Legacy branch. It should keep all progress. But there were other updates since then, so you might end up missing something. I just really liked the circle...

[@slowcart3565]

I love your content

[@jl-hm2st]

If you like puzzlesolving, timetravel games Like this one I recommend Hourglass. The mechanics are somehow similar to this game, but it is in First Person Mode😊

[@awesomegames9216]

You NEED To Play "Thinking With Time Machine" It's This But Portal

[@doodleplayer4014]

I think instead of past & future self, it's more like two simultaneous timelines that are intertwined with one another.

[@andrewevenson2657]

This would be an interesting game for the speed running community.

[@spaceguy20_12]

Don’t forget, if you play chess, it’s gonna have to be 5d chess with multiverse time travel

[@blizzard8958]

Not sleeping for this💪

[@poemes]

In another timeline he still has red curtains😭 great video btw

[@Eddoou]

This was doooope!

[@greenapple9477]

Man, this was TWO YEARS AGO??? Good god.🤯

[@JemTheBookworm]

Amazing video!!

[@tolmt6736]

Looks like a fun series(?)

[@xainjeff]

COOL!💪

[@Logan9312]

This reminds me of the VR game that was called Help Yourself. They changed the name to We are One if anyone wants to check it out

[@PlatonicPluto]

In some terms, this could be considered a 4D game.

[@typenullgaming5741]

the time travel animation reminds me of The World lol
