LunchTimeWaster: Two Steps Forward… Two Steps Back!

Kotaku AU

Paula Abdul once sang a poignant song, with an animated dog, about the perils of taking two steps forward, and then two steps back. One Step Back is that sentiment manifest, in game form, and it’s awesome.

It’s tough to explain One Step Back, you must go from one door to another, but only after a designated amount of time. The issue with this is that the door you entered from is contantly spawning new versions of you following the exact same path that you, yourself, have already taken!

Sounds easy, but it’s quite tricky in practice…

    Sounds like Echoes (an Aussie-designe game, IIRC). Cheap on PSN!

    I was playing this the other day
    Its good

    At first its like “This is soooo easy”
    Then its like “what the hell”
    Then its like “OH, I get it”
    Then it becomes impossible and you give up gaming forever!!!

    (Reviewing is so easy, I would go pro if I had not givin up gaming forever.)

    Rhombus-shaped “collect your past selves” level is broken for me.

    Nice one. Jumping on the spot helped more than a few times.
