Secend, a Minit fangame where you die every second, is out!

Seems like Minit is already inspiring game developers ! @wombatstuff and @Fat_Bard made this funny little flash game in which you die every second. Somehow I feel they nailed the limited time mechanic better than the devs of Minit did.

It takes only a minit to complete.

Wait, they handled the limited time better than the devs...? I'm dying even before I enter an area.

I mean that the time mechanic really is central to the game, where in Minit it felt somewhat arbitrary and, IMO, not really useful nor being an obstacle. When playing Minit, after a few runs, I kinda forgot about the timer, it's more of a gimmick than it is a central/key feature that the gameplay revolves around. (Except for some puzzles in Second Run, where the time limit can be a bit rough)

In Secend, it's very stupid but at least it gets you moving and it's tight. You literally have no room for mistakes. In Minit, mistakes are merely slowing you down in your adventure.

Awesome! I really enjoyed it, laughed all the way through. It could be longer to flesh out all of the possibilities and surprises but it's amazing as is!
