Course Correction
A downloadable game for Windows
Vivi is a college student who finds herself running into various dangers throughout her day, ending up back in her bed after each lethal encounter. Use the patterns of the loop to help her find a way out--the only thing she brings back when she comes back to life is her knowledge. In fact, you can technically beat the game in one go.
Update: I think I removed the bugs that were there previously but if any more are spotted, please let me know! Also, the web and mac versions did not work at all so I removed them. Walkthrough is below if anyone wants to know the answers to the puzzles!
Content Warnings: Death, some strong language
(I made this entire thing in the week of the game jam as someone with no prior experience in pixel art or rpg maker, so I had to cut a ton of corners. I will probably remake the game one day to be more aligned with the original vision with a better story, larger map, and more things to do.)
Walkthrough:
How to get the backpack:
Enter top left classroom and interact with the bookshelf next to the closet door until you can push it aside. Then go inside and collect the backpack.
How to get the blender:
Go to the smoothie vendor and wait until 3:30. A man will show up and claim the blender. Listen in on their conversation to learn the code.
The other person:
There is a cult member that will try to recruit you at 3:00 at the tree by the bridge. You must deal with them for a few loops to learn their secrets.
The other person pt2:
Take the knife in the desk in your room after dying to the cult once. You must do this each time you die. Face the cult with your new weapon.
The other person pt3:
Knock on Elizabeth's door.
Find your girlfriend:
Head into the forest area past the bridge and walk into the dark area of the trees. Press space or z to interact to enter the new area, and go talk to Hazel.
Find the key:
The key to breaking the loop. Which is the artifact. Get a hint from the crystal vendor for how to find the artifact.
Hint answer:
The answer to the hint is to go to the dorms area of Middle Court and interact with the bushes in the rainbow color order of the houses. This means the top left one, the bottom right one, the top right one, the bottom left one, and then finally interact with the statue of Mark in the center. You will receive the crystal which will stay with you throughout the loops. Get a hint for how to use the crystal from Hazel.
How to end the loops:
Obtain the blender and take it to your room while possessing the crystal. Interact with your desk to blend up the crystal into a smoothie and drink it.
How to beat the loop in one go:
Without dying once, obtain the crystal and the blender and make the crystal smoothie. You will get unique dialogue from this lol.
