RESET - scifi puzzler
Reset looks rather fantastic… It’s for pc (so far), and they will start a crowfunding campaign soon.
From the website:
“Reset is a single player co-op first person puzzle game with a strong emphasis on story and atmosphere. The unique game mechanic in Reset is the ability to travel back in time to solve puzzles co-operatively, with yourself.”

Beautiful in-game teaser from last year:
New gameplay video:
Last year’s teaser completely sold me. I LOVE that clip.
I hope their crowdfunding campaign will be a success.

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka
Yeah, it’s pretty rare that a vague trailer along with very sparse information can almost sell a game. And with the new trailer and information the game seems even more promising.
It reminds me what Epic did with the “Mad World Gears of War trailer”, but more information was out at that point, though.
Finnish robot puzzler is on IndieGoGo now.
Adventure is not mentioned as a genre but what else can it be when it’s a puzzler that’s advertised with scifi noir mystery with a beautiful story? They’ve said it’s supposed to have a Wall-E like atmosphere (I am guessing the lonely planet more than the human ship).
I’m interested and will probably dish out that 20€, the tier prices seem a bit high though.

Reset is a single player adventure. The unique game mechanic in Reset is the ability to travel back in time to solve puzzles co-operatively with yourself. You multiply yourself by first marking a place/time of re-entry in the game world and then proceeding to complete one part of a puzzle. You then reset (jump back in time) to the re-entry mark creating two separate co-existing timelines. But the mechanic is not limited to two timelines, more elaborate puzzles have multiple timelines for some serious mind fun.
The second-to-second gameplay is similar to games like Portal but the mechanic is akin to games like The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom, Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time, Prometheus UDK.
Looks promising. time travel puzzles! And the graphics? How does such a small team make this kind of stuff?
sci fi noir… thats right up my alley 
Oh, thread merged… Didn’t notice 
Now, where’s the delete button?
Oops, there was a thread already. I usually check the old threads better. But at least it was new info!
I’m a scifi and noir fan too and I love time travel puzzles, so I guess I should bother contributing though I have kinda thrown my money around too much again.

Me too.
You have to play the game, to find out why you are playing the game! - eXistenZ
It looks really interesting. My only concern from watching the gameplay tutorial video is that you move very slowly, and waiting for your previous self to perform the action you just done could mean a lot of standing around. It could potentially become a bit tedious and boring.
My initial thought was “I hope there’s a run button” and “It’d be cool if you could fast-foward your previous self”.
It looks interesting, but I’m a bit worried about the fairly-high production values. They’re only asking for a tiny amount of money, so I’m afraid that’ll translate to a very short/small game.

Only 4 days left on the Kickstarter IndieGoGo campaign and just a tad over half still to be raised… 
Here’s to hoping that IndieGoGo also has insane funding spikes on the last days…

I’d like the perspective of the game. I thought the trailers were very nice. Unfortunatly, it will not be fund.
The project has indeed had quite a spike in the last day or so. Like 10k in a day or something. 21 hours left, with about 12k € to go. It’ll be really tight, but it’s not impossible.

I put in my 25 €, which is quite a lot on my budget, I have to say. Had to think it through, and I might’ve not done it if the project wasn’t in such close-but-no-cigar state of funding right now. Nevertheless, I’m really hoping it pulls through! It has the potential for something very awesome, even if there are certainly some risks especially with such a small budget and small team.
Not surprising, given that it got an endorsement from RockPaperShotgun yesterday 
It does look like an intriguing game but I am not entirely sold on its concept yet from the little we’ve seen. I also somewhat dislike first-person, especially if you are alone in an empty world, as the trailers so far suggest.
No good deed goes unpunished

Looks like the insane spike in on, only 5k to go in 16h.
