Flashback
A short 2D puzzle-platformer about manipulating the present by stepping out of your own timeline.
Activate your ability to leave your physical body frozen in place, becoming a temporal anchor. As a free-roaming "echo", you can alter the world by flipping switches and solving puzzles. Return to your body instantly to see the consequences of your actions and navigate a world you've just reshaped.

its a bit too awkward using the mouse on a laptop to play this - keys would be better but it looks good !
Thanks for the feedback! I was hoping to have the ability to change keybinds but didn't quite have the time for it. Will keep that in mind for future games!
