Oh my fricking' god that pulse is totally freakingly annoying to control. I've been trying a certain area over a gazillion times and I still cannot get it right. It's probably just me but I would seriously reconsider making it a little more predictable or less hard (or maybe I should've played the game on easy instead of hard... ). The only reason I'm still trying is that the game is so awesomely styled, both visually as sound-wise. So take that as a compliment, seriously original style!
Btw. I'm stuck in that area where you have to virus-dodge-jump-pulse across a lot of purple stuff. First right, then down, then left again.
Hiya swoopie! Sorry to hear you're experiencing some frustration.
A few things... 1. The purple lights on the character's arm thingies should indicate how powerful the glitch pulse will be. I realize it can seem a bit unwieldy or unpredictable, and this is something we talk about a lot internally, but it can be predicted with some experimentation and practice as it is never affected by anything random. 2. You can change the difficulty at any time, and this may affect how many enemies and/or hazards you need to avoid. 3. If you want to get some tips, tricks, etc. you can join our discord and someone can guide you or just show you a video of the area you're having trouble with. http://discord.gg/6kntfs3
Hi there! Sorry to hear that. What browser are you using? It's also possible that it won't load due to your internet connection. In that case, you could try downloading it, as however long that may take, you only have to do it once.
ooooh! I really like the whole nature of this game! The glitch particle effects, The Forum, and even the cute-looking player character! What would be even cooler if we could customize the player's "Username" and profile picture.
This game is epic! It has a great story, great graphics, and really brings the metroidvania style out! I really like it, and can't wait to see how it grows!
Ok so, here's some help I guess. It pushes you back depending on your current speed when using it. The faster you are at the moment of hitting the key, the more it will push you.
If you hold it down, it will continue pushing you until you release it. So if you want a smaller push back from it, just don't move around when using it and give it a little tap. If you want to be pushed further, move in the opposite direction first, then use the glitch pulse and hold it.
Personally, I haven't seriously attempted normal runs with the timer going yet. But I know that there is a wr of something like 170. It's on youtube, if you wanna see it.
On our discord server, there are some runners who are trying to break the game right now to skip a big chunk of the game :D If you have an account, come on in ;)
Super secret tip! Press 9 on the keyboard to pull up a speedrun timer. This is still an experimental feature but we used it internally for some fun competitions :)

No worries, your game is quite awesome, it's apparently just too hard for me :-) Thanks for the tips though!

Username & Picture customization are planned for the full version. Thanks a lot for the feedback and praise :)

Thank you for the kind words :)
God, the glitch pulse physics. SEND HELP

Hope that helps!
Really nice! Love it!! :D
Thank you Brownrice :)
Really cool, but it's so hard.
Thanks and sorry about that. Some people say it's too easy some say it's too hard. I think we should just add an "assist mode" for the full game.
this is amazing!! <3
Thanks! <3
Good job. I wish you luck
Nice! I got 376.50 speedrunning normal mode.
Now I got 338.07
Good job! :)
Thanks! I hope other people decide to start speedrunning this great game! (Also, what's your best time on normal?)

Really impressive. I love the visuals, gameplay and concept. Congrats!!
Nice video! It looks like you practiced a bit before recording, smooth moves!
This is really awesome and I love the ideas
Thanks a ton!
Hu
ŸäḦüï, I’m glad to see Ÿıū!
Really nice work. Can't believe it's finally here!
We can hardly believe it either! Thank you Harsh :)
Pretty cool game. I have learned many useful things like (REDACTED) and that's pretty cool.
Thanks! Yeah (REDACTED) was acutally the main message of this demo. Glad you found out about it!
Honestly i can't wait for other people to speedrun this game. (including me)
Super secret tip! Press 9 on the keyboard to pull up a speedrun timer. This is still an experimental feature but we used it internally for some fun competitions :)
Oh hey, thanks :).
Also, can I make the Speedrun.com page for Glitcheon? Wanted to ask just in case.
Yes, please clarify that it's for the demo in some way.
It is for the demo, When the game will be finished there would be a second version with the full game.
