A downloadable game for Windows

LOOPDROP is a fast-paced FPS Parkour game about recovering lost music loops!

The shadows have taken your loops and scattered them across the void.

Only you can collect them all and exit the loop.

Made for GMTK Gamejam 2025. "Loop"

This is my first game and a solo project!

Includes a dynamic soundtrack made by Procyon Pulse (me!)
Making this game was the most difficult thing I've ever done.
(for so, so many reasons.)

The UI won't scale if you fullscreen, but it works fine in-game!



-----BUT ALSO-----

LOOPDROP isn’t just a fast-paced FPS parkour game about recovering lost music loops.

For me, it’s a map of the last three years of my life.
The shadows in the game? They’re the depression, fear, and emptiness that took my music, my joy, my sense of aliveness... and scattered them across a void I didn’t know how to cross.

Every jump, every wall run, every loop I recover in the game is a piece of myself I had to fight to get back.

That is what I meant by "The shadows came in the night. They stole my sound and took the music from my heart. The loops have been scattered across the void." 

Making this game was my climb out of mental anguish. It was my proof that I can still create, still move, still feel color, music, and joy. 

The song you run to? It's called "Catecholamines." The whole game design, dopaminergic on purpose. It's the antidote.

I joined this gamejam to prove to myself that it was possible to make things again.

The game itself is a self-referential metaphor for itself. Not to get too deep but I made this game FOR ME, to prove it's finally okay for me to feel *alive* again.

Some players will just see speed and flow.

But for me, LOOPDROP is a promise: I will keep running, not because I fear the shadows… but because I love the life, the music, and the movement I find along the way.

It's proof I was finally capable of breaking the loop.

Thank you for playing my game.

Amazing game! I could totally see myself losing hours on something like this. You mentioned continuing development after the jam, and I hope you do! I'd personally like to see more.

I guess it's my pc's fault, but the game is not launching, I really wanted to try it

What is happening when you try to launch? I can help you troubleshoot.

A godot windows opens, but then closes without an error message or anything

did you make sure to extract the zip and all files together?
if the dll files  are missing it won't load.
What version of windows are you on?
System specs? Graphics drivers up to date?

all this info will help me to track down the problem

I'm pretty sure my problems are the graphic drivers. I have an intel i7 4770 with integrated graphics, so it's quite old lol

That's good information for me to know, actually. The game uses Godot's forward+ renderer which might be a bit advanced for that chip. After the jam I plan on trying to push out a lower-spec build.

Known issues:
fullscreen UI not rendering in correct position
issues standing up under slide obstacles.
Camera issues when sliding into a wall

Will be fixed in the post-jam release.

Thank you everyone!

The game is really intuitive and the music is obviously super well made ^^

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the music. Post-jam I plan on adding a few more songs to play!

Appreciate the kind words.

this game is pretty neat, kind of has the same flowstate as mirror's edge parkour but as a corridor obstacle runner with neat music

i like it
