Information

10 Second Backdoor is a reaction-based puzzle game where you control a god's daughter, who was sworn in to help after a business meeting, In this game, you lead people out of the mysterious and dangerous Backdoor dimension.

You can do a plethora of things to help the people get out, including building bridges, and rotating blocks. But, they take away from your power, and if you run out of power, its game over for you.

There are 20 levels to go through, some easy, some difficult, some freebies, and everything between.

Get under ten fails to get the good ending.

Update - Bug Fixing

Fixed Main Menu not loading you in when pressing multiple times

​Warning

​Do not speed through the cutscenes, they crash the game if you speed through them on the web build

I RECOMMEND PLAYING THE WINDOWS BUILD.

Like the gameplay. I also like the aesthetic. Something about these graphics and the drum and bass. Good stuff. Only made it to world 3-2 It get's quite difficult. I love the little interlude cinematics between levels :)

Novel premise. I'm still stick at the second level, guess my reactions are not up to scratch. The grid snapping of the platforms works very well for the initial placement. But then, when I have to move it by one step when the player is on it, the placement is airy and not grid snapped. I wish I could proceed to more levels to discover the level design choices you made. Also, I like the white circle transition swipe effect, like wiping the slate clean.

Very good game, with the time limit it can be speedly difficult but i like the concept easy to understand and you have a lot of possibility. The graphics and the cute sound improve the mood. You have really a good thing here ! I hope you improve it and made a full version.

I likke the lemmings style gameplay with big time pressure provides a nice challange :D
I had troubles seeing the map exactly, especially when there was this "rotating 4piece, 4directions" puzzle piece almost in the background and I had to time it perfectly to save that character.
Anyways, cool that you had time to implement a story too with compo rules, well done!

Awesome entry. The gameplay is a little confusing with the rotating blocks, and i can't really get used to it. The game is still pretty fun to play though, after enough tries i can perservere. This game has so much personality that it's hard to dislike

A very interesting game! The idea of using building structures as well as transforming cubes is very creative and fun to actually play! Great combination of story and gameplay! One small issue is that in the opening animation, the texts in the phone have a bright green background which makes it a bit hard for me to read the words. Doesn't affect the gameplay though. Overall quite a fun game!

The little moment of story in between are great!
Puzzle aren't that easy with the 10s timer

A great jam title! The theme of playing god trying to keep people alive is an interesting one to tie into something happening every 10 seconds. I loved what the little story moments and music added to the experience as well. I would have loved the ability to rotate tiles in both directions, but that was properly my only gripe with the core gameplay. Nice work!

Cute stuff overall. Some of the puzzles are nice (and some are just evil- I gave up on 4-3 lol) and I really enjoyed the music. Also it won't hurt to add some screenshots from the game over here(^:
