Editor review
Mirror Rooftop is a vertical-climb platformer split into chunks. Each chunk loops if you fall, and falling costs four to six seconds. The chunk structure is the design choice that defines the experience; it keeps the player moving forward without the punitive feel of a single long fall.
The level design plays with the chunk boundary. Some chunks end with a deliberate gap that punishes overcommitting; others end with a long platform that rewards momentum. The variety keeps the loop from feeling repetitive.
Played over a Newcastle Newcastle Metro commute and a long evening session. The format suits both. Each chunk takes thirty to ninety seconds.
The flaw is the chapter length. The first three chapters fit a commute well; the fourth and fifth chapters run long enough that a commute ride only covers half of a chapter. Splitting the longer chapters into two would help. Three-and-a-half stars overall.
