About This Game

TANGENT is easy to pick up and hard to master.

What started as a climb-to-the-top challenge like Celeste, Getting Over It, or Pogostuck turned into a short-burst, time-trial style game closer to Trackmania.

The goal is simple: beat par times, keep your momentum, and find that perfect rhythm from swing to swing.

Each difficulty ends with a Marathon Stage. Play all the previous levels in a row.

In TANGENT, the audio reacts to your speed. The faster you go, the more intense the music gets — like you’re building the track as you play. Every little sound, from grappling to pumping fits into the overall song, making every run feel alive and musical.

Planned for Full Release

  • 50+ stages across multiple difficulties.

  • Hazards, and advanced movement tricks.

  • Online leaderboards

  • Stage Designer where players can create their own stages

Demo Contents

  • 5 Beginner Stages to test your timing and flow, 1 Expert Stage to show real difficulty

  • 14 Cosmetic Marble Shells (I'm considering making these more than just cosmetic)

Controls

  • Left Mouse: Grapple / Release

  • Spacebar: Pump (while attached) / Jump (on ground)

  • Shift + R: Restart instantly (R for soft restart)

Developer Note

Please offer any and all feedback, recommendations, glitch reports, etc. This is the demo/proof of concept, and the full game is still in the works (about 80% done).

Thanks for playing :)
