TimeRunner 是一款围绕“连接（Connection）”主题设计的时间解谜平台游戏。
当前版本的关卡核心不再是压板协同，而是：
- 你（玩家）
- 回声（Echo，过去的你）
- 连接光束（Connection Beam）
- 连接感应器（Connection Sensor）
通过“人-回声-光束”的空间关系来开门、开路和重构解法。
- 先行动并记录轨迹
- 你先移动、跳跃、冲刺，制造一段有意义的时空路径。
- 触发回溯
- 使用回溯回到早先位置。
- 生成回声并建立连接
- 回声沿时间线重演旧动作。
- 系统会在你与回声之间生成实时连接光束。
- 用“连接线穿过感应器”驱动机关
- 当光束穿过 Connection Sensor，传感器被激活。
- 传感器向门发送 Activated / Deactivated，门据此开启或关闭。
- 同步你与回声
- 关键不只是“你站在哪”，而是“你和回声连线在哪个时刻经过哪里”。
在这个版本里，解谜目标通常是：
- 让玩家-回声连线扫过指定区域
- 保持连线穿过感应器足够久
- 在门开启窗口内完成位移
这意味着你要规划两件事：
- 回声的终点位置和运动节奏
- 当前玩家的实时位置与位移方向
两者共同决定连接线的角度、长度和覆盖区域。
- 先定“线”再定“人”
- 先观察感应器在哪，反推需要哪条连线穿过它，再决定你和回声分别要去哪里。
- 先录“锚点轨迹”
- 第一次行动先把回声送到合适锚点（高点、角落、门边）。
- 第二次行动做“执行轨迹”
- 回溯后由当前玩家补齐剩余路径，让连接线在正确时机切过传感器。
- 失败就重编排时间
- 失败往往不是手速问题，而是连线时机不对。
- 调整录制顺序和回溯时点比“跑更快”更有效。
- 你不是单独闯关，而是在与“过去的自己”建立时空链接。
- “连接”既是视觉表达，也是机关输入。
- 同一个地图位置，在不同时刻会因为连接关系变化而产生完全不同的可行路径。
- 左移：
A - 右移：
D - 下：
S - 跳跃：
W - 回溯：
Q - 重开关卡：
E（动作名：relode）
- 在 Godot 中打开项目并运行。
- 通过关卡管理器进入目标关卡。
- 先观察连接感应器位置，再开始第一次录制。
TimeRunner is a time-based puzzle platformer centered on the theme of Connection.
In the current level design, pressure-plate logic is no longer the main interaction model. The gameplay now revolves around:
- the Player
- Echo (your past self)
- Connection Beam
- Connection Sensor
You solve puzzles by shaping where the beam between Player and Echo travels over time.
- Move and record
- Perform a useful route first.
- Rewind
- Return to an earlier point in your timeline.
- Spawn Echo and establish a link
- Echo replays past actions.
- A live beam is formed between you and Echo.
- Drive mechanisms via beam-sensor intersection
- When the beam crosses a Connection Sensor, it activates.
- Sensors trigger door behavior through Activated / Deactivated events.
- Synchronize both timelines
- Success depends on where the beam is, not only where the character stands.
Most puzzles are about controlling a moving line segment:
- Make the beam sweep through a target area.
- Keep it intersecting long enough.
- Use the opening window to pass through.
So you plan both:
- Echo anchor and playback rhythm
- Live player movement and timing
Together they determine beam angle, length, and coverage.
- Plan the beam first
- Identify required beam path through sensors, then decide positions.
- Record an anchor route first
- Use your first pass to place Echo in a strong anchor position.
- Execute a second route after rewind
- Use your live run to complete the intersection timing.
- Iterate by retiming, not by rushing
- Most failures are timeline/beam timing issues, not pure execution speed.
- You are connected to your own past.
- Connection is both visual language and puzzle input.
- Different timing creates different valid paths in the same space.
- Move left:
A - Move right:
D - Move up:
W - Move down:
S - Jump:
W - Dash:
L - Interact:
J - Rewind:
Q - Reload level:
E(action name:relode)
- Open the project in Godot and press Play.
- Enter a level from the level manager.
- Locate sensors first, then plan your first recording around beam routes.
