Nostalgic for text-based games? Are you a perfectionist? Completionist? Masochist?
This game is for you!
(IMPORTANT: the game is *very* unfinished, the Epsilon version has no menu or level transition yet. There are only a few levels, but the core gameplay is fully functional!)

I created the first version of Tilper in 2014, as I was learning how to code. When I shared it with family and friends, it became an instant favorite - they even designed their own levels! I was convinced that, if finished, Tilper would be successful.
Life happened, and I began my working career. Bills had to be paid, game development had to wait. Years began to melt past, forming a growing haze of half-remembered weeks. I suffered from depression and burnout.
In January 2022, I rediscovered Tilper on my hard drive. It had waited for me to return, all these years. It wasn't as good as I remembered - *much* worse, actually - but I could still see my original vision. I could still remember my dream.
To my younger self: I'm making your dream come true.

Beat the game. Only after a few levels discovered second jump and a it's backfire when used. Still do not understand what other 3 symbols do, heart (but not all) make spikes appear and disappears at interval, but what about other 3? ♣ marks exit... and i don't know what it's means...
Good game

Very cool game. I kept thinking where I was going, but I just went further and further into the unknown.
