A downloadable game for Windows

---///LemniSkate///---

Lemniscate:
In algebraic geometry, a lemniscate is any of several figure-eight or ∞-shaped curves.
Skate:
Move on ice skates or roller skates in a gliding fashion.

Controls:

Middle Mouse: Grapple and hook on to a point
Right Mouse Button: Jetpack
Left Mouse Button: Shoot
Left Control: Cancel hook, remove ground friction(skate)
Spacebar: Jump
WASD: movement
Q: Slow Time
F: Fix grapple marker (not recommended to use)
R: Clear fixed markers(not recommended to use)
Home: Restart Level

(Very)Important Movement Tips:

1.When you press the middle mouse button to hook on to something and reel in, you can cancel the reel-in mid way by pressing Ctrl. Holding down the Ctrl button this way will allow you to slide across the ground until you come to a stop. Your resultant velocity depends upon how soon you cancel while reeling in.

2.You can chain the above move by jumping/jetpacking at the end of a slide, and then hooking and repeating the process again

3.Use the jetpack to slowly gain upward momentum (ideally used along with a jump)

4.The faster you go, the lesser damage you take(more speed armor).Passing through turret spheres at high speeds will enable you to take less damage.

5.The grappling marker( the blue sphere) will remain at the last valid point, or "snap" to edges.

It might seem daunting at first(or not, i'm not sure) but once you get the hang of it, you'll be flinging yourself around the level with ease   

Other comments/tips
1.The pistol has no purpose as of yet. It can move the small cubes scattered around the level, and that's about it.Have fun slowing down time and shooting cubes!
2.There was supposed to be a proper tutorial level(and more enemy types), but I ran out of time(fucking menudev reeee) so I apologize if things are convoluted/frustrating.

Feedback/Criticism would be appreciated.
Thank you so much for downloading and playing my game!
