A downloadable game for Windows

Made for the GMTK Game Jam 2024 with the theme "Built to Scale".

In "Metronome", you get to play as Toctoc, the magical metronome. Help him reach the goal with the help of his time scaling abilities, which will slow down or speed up the movement of objects and enemies around you. But be mindful of the clock, you don't want time to run out!

Objective

Complete each of the three stages to finish the game. Get up on the platforms, jump on the springs and try not to fall into the pits while avoiding being hit by enemies: Toctoc can't fight, so avoid combat!

He can, however, control time around him, so use his magical abilities and play around with time-scaling, speeding or slowing down things as you need to!

Using his powers comes with a price however, and you might loose track of time. Grab as many golden clocks and notes as you can to add precious seconds to your timer and make sure you don't run out before finishing the level!

Controls

A+D: move left and right.

SPACEBAR: jump!

Q: Slow down the environment.

E: Speed up the environment.

The level will start with no time running and it is up to you to speed and slow down things to allow progress to happen.
