A downloadable game

The Clocktower (which is randomized on each playthrough!) is in need of repairs. More repairs than you have time for now. The important thing is to:

Ring both bells at 12:00 (well, after 11:30, we're not picky here...) and win! But do so too early, and you loose.

To do so, use the crank to both spin the gear(s) and advance/regress time, at the same ... err, time.

You'll have to put in some gears (and belts) first though... Connect the powered gear on the left with the two gears controlling the hammers on the right through the use of gears and belts.

You can place gears (and belts) on positions marked with a little circle (and not so on those with a little cross). (Nothing can be placed on the walls)

  • Spin the crank to power the gears and advance/regress time.
  • Use the D-pad to move the cursor (also to the bottom row, which selects the current gear/belt/tool).
  • Press A to place/erase/select (depending on the tool and on whether the cursor is in the menu...)
  • Press B to flip the rotation of belts to be placed.

Tools (all unlimited use):

  • 4 teeth gear
  • 5 teeth gear
  • 6 teeth gear
  • belt
  • eraser

I badly wanted B to cycle through the selected tool instead (as the current controls are jank,,,) as well as make a restart/scramble option in the system-menu, but I guess ... my time was up. :-p
