Slow is Fast

[IN PROGRESS, for the GMTK 2026]

You, a poor turtle, got experimented on by the evil Machiavellian Ancient Rabbit-Killer (M.A.R.K. for short). Try to escape its lab with your guts, your time-slowing abilities, and the shotgun turret on your back ; but you don't have much time...

In this twin-stick shooter, you play a turtle which slows time down when it is immobile.

Playable with keyboard+mouse or controller.

Disclaimer: the web version runs with a different rendering backend (Compatibility mode of Godot). If you do experience bugs, try the downloadable versions (Windows and Linux x86_64 available, ask me if you need another build).
