Gateways

Gateways is a 2D platformer game set in the laboratory of an inventor named Ed, after a series of his "creative" experiments break out. Can you help him escape from the laboratory? In addition to the traditional platforming elements like jumping on enemies' heads, spikes, and moving platforms, there are the gateway guns. Gateways let you place two gateways on the walls, floors and ceilings of the lab so that when you go through one, you come out the other side. As the game progresses, different types of gate weapons are introduced with different effects. When you go through one gate, Ed shrinks to half his size and through the other gate he grows to twice his size. Then you'll find a weapon where one gate is linked not only to the location of the other, but also to its time, allowing Ed to travel back in time and meet earlier versions of himself. Finally, the last weapon manipulates gravity so that Ed can walk along walls and ceilings. Gateways takes place on a single, sprawling map that is full of puzzles and challenges. The more power-ups you get, the more parts of the map open up and contain more power-ups and secrets. In addition to the gateway weapons, Ed will also find a torch to light up the dark areas of the map and a mirror to deflect lasers.
