DualVerse86

DualVerse86 is a 2D parkour platformer with a retro-futuristic setting. Each level is a timed run, and the central mechanic is the ability to switch between two virtual worlds in real time. Players use this to avoid traps, cross platforms and work out a route through each stage. The game has no combat, with the focus placed on movement, timing and precision.

Floppy disks are scattered through the levels and collecting them unlocks further stages. Completing a level within set time limits earns medals, and every level also contains hidden secrets for players to find. The developer describes the game as aimed at players interested in speedrunning and technical, high-difficulty challenges.

The visual style takes inspiration from the 1990s and the game is accompanied by a synthwave soundtrack. DualVerse86 has now moved from development to release on Steam and currently has two user reviews.
