Doctor Thingumy's Undoing

"Eureka!" cried Doctor Thingumy as he realised his invention, the World's first ever 'UNIVERSAL UNDO BUTTON' was a success. "No-one need ever worry again about making mistakes as a press of my amazing button can flip back time just enough to try again, in any situation!"

As he jumped for joy he heard a wobble and a bump, some way off above him. Then came a sort of sliding sound. Falling doesn't really make a sound so the next moment was a silent one and that's the reason Doctor Thingumy didn't move. If he had he wouldn't have been crushed to a pulp by a humongous crate full of science stuff.

He wasn't entirely crushed, though. One hand was outstretched and survived - severed and now alone. An unlikely hero, you'd say. But four fingers and a thumb were more than enough to operate the UUB...

WARNING - This game contains blood/gore. Whilst it is portrayed in a cartoony fashion, it may/will not be suitable for all audiences.

Doctor Thingumy's Undoing was originally made in just over a day for the Mini Jam #132. The theme was 'Severed' and the restriction was 'Multiple endings'.

For v1, I have tweaked the gameplay considerably with an aim to making the direction of flight from a finger-fling more predictable. I believe I have made the game somewhat more playable, but more tweaking could come.

The level layout has also been tweaked and extended a little, with new obstacles to tackle.

A few other improvements to the audio, visuals and UI have also been implemented.
