You have completed the perfect run.

But can you do it backwards?

_____


Asynchronous is a bullet-hell shoot 'em up - played in reverse. You start at the end of stage 1 - It has been completed perfectly and you must un-play the level - too many deviations from the original timeline and it is game over.

CONTROLS:

Arrow Keys to Move

"A" Key to un-fire

"S" Key toggles auto-fire

F4 - Toggles Full-screen

NOTE: Stage Complete screen is just for aesthetics - any key will skip this scene

TOOLS:

Aseprite

Bosca Ceoil

Audacity

BFXR

and special thanks to the CRT Pixel Shader for Game Maker.

Hello! Very cool game, but I'm not sure if the problem I came across was the game's fault or not, but in case it was, I will tell you it. While I was playing the game, I couldn't exit it with my Windows button. I had to hold it down to get out. When I did that, the game quit on its own for some reason. 

Huh that's odd.. I haven't heard of that one yet. It works for me but mind you I developed it on windows 8. I should have written this in the controls page but "escape" will exit the game. Thanks for playing!
