Psychotronic The original Shift was an interesting platform game that used negative space as an entertaining hook, but it came with a few problems that ultimately made it feel unfinished and experimental. Now, Tony of Armor Games has released Shift 2, which is basically the game the first one should have been. It's not enough of a leap forward to warrant the "2" in its name, really, but it refines and expands upon the original concepts to deliver a smoother, more drinkable dose of run/jump/puzzle distraction.

Once again, you take control of a hapless research subject in a monochromatic laboratory filled with spikes and blocky architecture. Move left and right with the arrow keys, jump with [space], and shift between the worlds of black and white with—well, I won't spoil that for you. That's your first puzzle. Shifting flips your hero through the floor beneath her feet, reverses her color, and turns the entire world over. Solid black blocks become empty space, mountains become valleys, pits become towering walls. Your goal in most levels is to untangle the M.C. Escher-esque landscape into a coherent pathway and escape through the inconveniently-placed door.

This time around, you'll have to contend with a few new collectible objects. The keys that rotate large platforms are back, but now you'll encounter lightbulb icons that make otherwise impassable checkerboard bricks disappear from your path. The most impressive new feature is the arrows that alter the direction of gravity, upside-down and 90 degrees. These mean that many levels are actually eight different mazes, if you count both black and white in each of the different cardinal directions. It can get quite complicated, although there are so few levels, it never feels like Shift 2 really explores all the possibilities. But the level design is much more intricate this time around, so even though Shift 2 is a short journey, it works quite a few of your brain muscles during the trip.

The sting of brevity is made much softer by the brilliant inclusion of a fully-operational level editor. You can cobble together any sadistic, trap-filled conglomeration you like, copy the code for your creation in text form, and trade it with your friends—that is to say, us. Unlike the original, Shift 2 operates on a grid-based tile system, so levels are both easy to assemble and reliable.

Moreover, Tony has rounded out the game with achievement medals and the usual sprinkling of elbow-to-the-ribs humor. It's comforting to have the voice of a cruel mastermind accompany you while you play. It makes what would otherwise be a clever but dry adventure ring with personality. Strangely, the cosmopolitan background music of the first game has been dropped in favor of generic ambient techno, but even the author acknowledges that the new score might be annoying enough to turn off. Play your own jazz, I guess.

The glitches that plagued Shift 1 have been mostly ironed out, so all that's left is high-quality platforming fun with hopefully a wave of diabolical levels to come, once fans break open the level editor. Here's hoping another sequel comes along before too long to really shake things up. One can imagine moving platforms, enemies, tubes that work as crawl-spaces in one realm and as climbable poles in the other, all sorts of things. This is a great foundation to build upon. Play Shift 2.

I think this is obvious.

Jokes on me:

Beat level nine before the time runs out.

Title Trasher:

Click the frowning face that says "Do Not Click" at the top-right of the main title screen.

Speed Runner:

Beat the game in five minutes or less. This is actually fairly easy if you can concentrate.

Appreciation:

Click on "Credits" on the main title screen.

Support the Developers:

Click on "More Games" on the main title screen.

Teh Trophy:

Get the trophy in level 16b.

The cc is the biggest lie that I have ever heard of.

Comments (may contain spoilers)

I've been lurking on jayisgames for quite a while (thanks for introducing me to the Grow games amongst many other favorites), but this is my first post. This was a really fun game and one of the first I was able to complete without any spoilers or help along the way.

For anyone struggling along, just keep on trying and you'll get it figured out soon.

Dang, when I saw the title, I thought what's-his-name from WhiteKiwi had made the rest of the other Shift, the one in the garden...

Ah well, this one is fun too.

Posted by: newbie | March 11, 2008 12:00 AM

unfortunately to everyone who is asking, the first rule about the cc is a lie is you do not talk about the cc is a lie.

In all seriousness though, once you find out the cc is a lie, your asked not to reveal what it refers to, and that's all I have to say about that, although I am actually surprised no one has revealed it. I guess that what the developer gets for asking nicely.

To load any of the levels posted here:

Click the spoiler to reveal the long line of characters.
NOTE: the line is longer than will display on the page, but rest assured they are all there.
Position your mouse on the left edge of the line, click and DRAG DOWN TO SELECT THE ENTIRE LINE.
Copy the text to the clipboard in the usual way you're used to doing for your OS/browser.
In the game, click "Extras->Shift-Ed->Load Level Code, then Right-click and Paste the text into the text input field. Make sure there is no blank line at the top.
Click "Load Code" and then "View code and preview level" and then "Preview level"
Voilà!
(whew!—isn't there a simpler way?!)

Posted by: Jay | March 11, 2008 12:07 PM

Wow. I mean, just WOW. I've been seeing all these comments about how the cc is a lie, and you just don't realize what their talking about. And then you realize you have to think outside the box, give the lie to the lie, and you GET IT: the cc is quite possibly the most incredible lie ever.

BTW, jay, I got type key before you brought out the casual login, so I signed up with the name 'Mtheminja' (because I couldn't use 'mtheminja'), but I can't remember the password, the 'forgot your password' thing isn't helping, and I don't want to use a different name. Could I email you or something to get the password fixed? I know which email I signed up with, so I can prove it's mine.

[Edit: Yes, of course. Until I can get the 'forgot your password' thing working better than it is now, I'll take care of any password resets manually. Just send me an email! -Jay]

Heh heh, that was a lot of fun, just as good as Shift 1!
Hey, that rhymed, whaddya know? Now go play Shift, and don't be slow!
Ok, I have got to stop talking like that and be done...but then again, it is rather fun!
In short, the game is great, give it a try!
Oh by the way...

THE CC IS A LIE.

The cc is a lie

Posted by: Auruan | March 11, 2008 2:44 PM

So now I know what the whole cc business refers to, and I realize why nobody would tell me. I played through the game four times to find out. I feel like I should be upset, but the game is fun enough and short enough that I'm okay with it. It helps that is has a great sense of humor (though I actually am a little upset with the Portal 2 tease).

Posted by: Neddo | March 11, 2008 3:05 PM

they were right.
the CC is a lie. lol
never would have guessed.

Posted by: Jim | March 11, 2008 4:17 PM

I agree with Neddo, I suppose I should be upset about the lie, but I'm not. I actually chuckled when I found out.

In case anyone wants to lengthen their Shift 2 experience here's a really hard level (even though I can solve it, I still often die on it myself):

....what? im sorry, seriously, but ive played this game quite a few times and i still dont know what this means. im really confused...i dont even know what CC means to begin with, nevertheless why its a frickin LIE.

can someone at least give me a hint?! i will love you forever.

Posted by: emma | March 11, 2008 5:01 PM

Emma:

What kind of crank would get people to discredit a unit of measurement? The real goal of this game must have been to get you so conditioned to getting made fun of by the creator, he can get people to propagate his anger toward Cubic Centimeters! Still, the game itself, and the bonus ending, were both fun.

Julian2: nice level, got me stuck a few times when I grabbed a key I shouldn't have taken. Also a good re-use of some of the space.

Arrgh, Crouch, on your really hard level,

I can only get 1 key + 2 bulbs (going left at start, I think that's the wrong way), or 1 key + 3 bulbs, but then I'm stuck.

Hinty?

Posted by: mtheminja | March 12, 2008 1:31 AM

You were right, the cc is a lie. If only I had believed you all in the frst place I wouldn't be in the situation I am today. I am so disappointed, mainly with myself though.

Posted by: captainlepton | March 12, 2008 7:11 AM

mtheminja: it's a bit hard to give a hint, but I just made a quick video with the solution. So if you only want a hint, just look at the first few seconds of the video.

Julian2, are you sure it can be solved? I can get to the exit, but since it's on a black background, I end up upside down and am not able to finish.

Posted by: Crouch | March 12, 2008 1:13 PM

Crouch: your hard level is the best so far (better than any of the levels in the actual game). Great use of all the features.

I don't think Julian2's can be solved either.

Posted by: TomL | March 12, 2008 2:03 PM

i forgot to check it, i dont know if it works. sorry

Posted by: Julian2 | March 12, 2008 2:39 PM

i see what i did wrong, i put the door in upside down!
heres the fixed code

[Edit: I've copied this code to your previous comment, too, just so no one gets a dead end by trying it. -Jay]

Posted by: Julian2 | March 12, 2008 2:43 PM

Mmh... I'm not terribly fond of this game's "cruel" sense of humor, but the gameplay itself isn't half bad. Shift! Shift! And shift again!

...I don't know what "CC" is either.

Posted by: emma | March 12, 2008 3:36 PM

It's kind of hilarious how when you hit spikes, your 'corpse' can trigger locks and bulbs, hehe.

Crouch,

I saw the first second of your video, and I was like, I never would have thought of that in a million years! That was all I needed, at least...

You should mail that to armour games, after all, they said they might make a user level pack... and it's SO clever!

Posted by: mtheminja | March 12, 2008 6:00 PM

I hope you enjoy this one...let me know if you found it too hard, too easy, or just right ;)

You know, the the cake is not a lie, so the cc probibly isn't either.

Posted by: mokesmoe | March 14, 2008 2:37 AM

THE CC IS A LIE! I am /so/ sorry for saying that, people that haven't figured it out yet.

Hint that won't make any sense now, but after you figure it out it will:

Check out the "secrets" link in the game.

Remember SHIFT 1?

What happened to the guy at the end? :P

Posted by: Fredzorz | March 14, 2008 1:10 PM

Many people are having trouble with the trophies so here we go:

Beat the game

Once you get to level 15, go into the door on the right. Get all of the light bulbs and be eaten by snakes. Congrats, you have the first ending

Joke's on me

On the crosses stage (the one with all the plus signs), it will say 'you have 60 seconds to finish this level...' or something. Finish it before that time to get this trophy. I did it with about 9 seconds left. Practice.

Title trasher

Click in the top right corner of the MAIN title screen. Follow the instructions and be patient.

Speed Runner

finish in 5 minutes, silly!

Appreciation and Support the developers

View credits and the Armor Games link.

Teh trophy! (MAJOR SPOILER!!)

On level 15, it says to continue to the next room. Instead, go left. You will fall into another hole and into the secret room. In the secret room you will find

the trophy along with the message 'bye', some good cutscenes, and a better ranking than 'eaten by snakes' in the final screen :)

Also, the CC is a lie!

Rofl! xD

The cc is a lie!

Obviously, this is crazy... xD

Posted by: Kamuka | March 14, 2008 7:07 PM

The “5 minutes” for the Speed Runner trophy actually seems to be 500 seconds. Knowing that should make it less frustrating if you’re trying to get it down from 600.
Good luck getting all the medals and unlocking the guy from Shift 1.

Posted by: Frungi | March 14, 2008 10:38 PM

i clicked the frowny face and i made the mouse go crazy but then what do i do?i already clicked settings but then what?
by the way the cc is a lie!!!
i still don't know what it means but everybody says it

Posted by: Test | March 19, 2008 11:59 PM

TomL: Thanks for the kind words.

mtheminja: I'll think about submitting it to armorgames, but I'm a bit hesitant. When you think about all the lies in the game, I wouldn't be surprised if the level-pack was another one. By the way, I'm glad you enjoyed my level.

reshirt_year: Nice level, took me some time to figure out what keys to pick up. About difficulty: for me they can't be hard enough, I like difficult levels on this game.

Learner: It's indeed easy, but the spiral at the end is funny.

sadsad: That's quite a bright room with all those lights ;)

Test: I tried it and I could indeed solve it. Don't really know if I solved it in the way you expected, because there's quite a big part of the level I didn't visit.

For anyone who's still sane after my last level, here's another one (I call it: "Order is key"):

I tested it and I guarantee it can be solved, but the order in which you do things is important.

The CC is a lie!

From what I can tell, the CC stands for the Classic Character. To unlock the Classic Character, you need to get 6 medals. Then click on Extras and click on CC to view it. And then, once you do that, congrats, you find the slogan "The CC is a lie!" Try it out! It's fun!

yup the CC is a lie, i was sad that i couldn't find out how to get the trophy by myself. it was like "duh" and then blarg.

most of the home made lvls are good, just make sure that they can't be beat just by going to the next check point. loops are the best, but make sure to kill us ok. lol.

Caution: the level is quite disorienting...

Hint: The level is mostly about being consistent and attentive...

The Full Trpohy Guide...All at once, so decide caefully before hand

An upgraded guide...
Title Trasher:
at th main menu, there's a diagonal line at the top-rite and left corners. the top-left one has a frowny face. click it. move your mouse BACKWARDS FROM WHERE YOU ARE AIMIN TO GO, and click "settings". then click ay random button. Try and reach the "settings" key at the top (kind of like King Tantalius and the fruit tree...). kep clicking for a wile, thn click it for 40 times after it finally allows you to. when u get to 31, it'll fuly fade. ow, click any random button about 10 times, and then click the frowny face again (when directed), o earn the trophy.
Appreiation: (easy-medal)
at he main menu, click "Credits".
Support the Developers: (easy-medal)
at the main menu, click "More Games"
Beat the Game:
either take the normal snake-pit ending, or the special trophy ending. Either way, you'll get this medal, although it wont announce it if you got it beating the game "secal trophy" way.
Speed Runner:
contray to common belefs, you dont have to do this under 5 minutes (300 seconds). you have to do it under 500 second, which is roughly 8 minutes. (whoever herd of a metric minute?)
Teh Trophy:
take the special trophy "hidden" way. at the stge after the hidden passage way, he trophy is there, all for u.
Joke's on me:
beat the croses level, which says "if you dont beat this level under 75 (-1/second) seconds, you will be automatically taken back to the title screen"
So, you can get all trophys with one run:
at th main menu, click both easy-medal [suprt the developers+appreciation](1+2) links.then gt tortured with the frowny face [title trasher](3). quickly complete as many levels as posible, including the crosses level [joke's on me] (4), then when you reach the final room, get thesecret passageway. Snatch the trophy (5) [teh trophy]at the next room, and continue to beat the game [beat the game](6) with the altrnate exit as fast as possible [speed runer] (7)

for tose of u more interested in keeeping normal integrity, a common message:

please comment on my leel. wuld be appreciated...

Crouch: Hey, thank you for trying my level and commenting. I played your level, and I have to say I enjoyed the insane acrobatic maneuvers. Nice rotating doors hehe.

Posted by: redshirt_year | March 30, 2008 9:03 PM

Yup, the CC is a lie

Just found out a while ago. Got all medals and...Well, I won't ruin it. That was hilarious when I found out. I would never have guessed.

Keep up the great work, and make a Shift 3, Tony!!

Posted by: OMG :*( | March 30, 2008 9:48 PM

Those are some great levels, Will. I don't really like the upgraded level though. I liked it better the way it was before you upgraded it, but I won't say "I hate you".The "Watch Where You Jump!" would make a good way to get peoples' momement skills to a decent level.The only thing I'm missing a bit is the shifting, the game is called shift after all. How about a nice level with that next?

redshirt_year: thanks for the nice words.

Posted by: Crouch | March 31, 2008 8:48 AM

Crouch: yea, thx. the next level is a "bonus level". shifting ahoy

also an insanely hard level that makes u throw up...wbut i will post that later.

and the upgraed issolvable, but not easy.(duh). the upgraded was actually for my friend, since he wanted the challenge.

the only way to solve it is to go between two iagonal flips, hit one, *glitch* trough a spike (barely), then land on another gravity flip. repeat this for a few steps (non specified), and u will reach the exit. takes LOTS f brain power.

Frustration

I was getting really mad at this "the cc is a lie" thing, trying to understand it, almost feeling dumb, but now I know!! And I have to say it too

THE CC IS A LIE!!!

Posted by: Julie | April 3, 2008 4:47 PM

okkk..it's kinda easy when ur reading this spoilerz...

Posted by: Mikee | April 5, 2008 8:10 AM

Guys, by the way, the CC is a lie! If you couldn't find the comment before posted revealing the cc thing, well here it is. But you don't have to look. it will spoil your fun. But I will still not tell what the whole thing is! you will still have to a little work.

you really want to know?

ok. fine!

Now i will cut some letters out of the words that stand for CC:

C as ic Ch r c er

Now for the rest:

Step 1: Go to the game shift 2. Step 2: Click on EXTRAS (on title screen). Step 3: Click on MEDALS. Step 4: Click on SECRETS. Step 5: Hopefully, now you know what we mean.

hope they helped

Posted by: Matt | April 5, 2008 3:00 PM

Guys! leave and make easier levels. please. i am only a begennier and i can't solve most of the levels posted!

Posted by: Matt | April 5, 2008 5:02 PM

To those who are actually reading the comments and having fun, post some of your own! I want to see some more.

I also have a question for someone to answer. In the real game, they have text guiding you. As you get farther, some text reads ITS TELLING THE TRUTH! Does anyone know what the heck that means? In shift 1, there is also text in the same writing that reads THE TIMER IS A LIE! I think I might already know, but I just guessed. Does anyone know for sure?

Posted by: Matt | April 5, 2008 5:58 PM

Will: Once you get the hang of it, "Frustrated" isn't actually that hard. The thing that got me frustrated though was some slight lag I had when taking key4, with a rather unfortunate death scene as a consequence. I did get revenge though :D (some rounds later).
You mentioned that you need to glitch through some spikes for your level, which inspired me to create the following level, for which you need to glitch in order to finish:

If you finish please tell me the order in which you picked up the keys and lightbulbs as I'd like to find out if I've removed all loopholes.

Matt: You're right, we've been designing some slightly insane levels. So here is an easier one for you:

Four squares up

I don't know what the text in the official game means. But I've read somewhere that it's a reference to the game Portal (I don't know, I've never played it). Hopefully somebody else can say more about it.

By the way, how did you set the locks to zero?

Posted by: Matt | April 9, 2008 2:43 PM

This was such a great game when i finallly found out what the cc is a lie meant i was just like wow!
i cant believe i tried so hard to complete the game under 5mins and then it was for that i was like oh okay

Great Game im looking forword to a third one if there ever is one

Posted by: 7ACK14 | April 9, 2008 4:00 PM

I have absolutly NO clue as to how i got the locks to be set at zero.

I was randomly throwing stuff into a level to give myself some ideas as to what kind of level I should do next and to my supprise I found a glitch in the game. All of the locks were set to zero and when I started to play the level that I had accedently glitched all of the locks started moving.

If you want to make your own glitched level you can simply delete everything in the second level that I posted and start from scratch.

Guys, I posted the wrong level before. I had made a new and better version of the level FLIPPIN. Plus, the first version was unsolveble. Anyway, here is the new and better version:

FLIPPIN'

I guess they play on the idea that first impressions, assumptions and instinct are often wrong and punishable, in the form of spikes and inescapable rooms.

Quite cruel really.
As for others:

Matt - I was able to solve your first version, although your second was still good.

The level posted by 'me' made me laugh very much.

Levels constructed on the idea of reflexes and speed rather than creative, ingenious thinking don't deserve posting.

The best levels, overall, are the unique ones that present new challenges instead of recycling other's creative work.
Overall, Shift 2 was a great game, and the level editor made it even more fantastic.

Have fun with my attempts, and keep churning out yours.
And of course, the CC is a lie.

I have two things to say. First of all, How did you solve my first version? Next, Level 3 is unsolveble.
By the way, those are crued glitches. But level 1 and 2 are really creative and cool. I now realize that i need to add not just the things to get to the door, but traps and obstacles on the way. Another thing I realized was how bad I really am at making levels and how easy my levels are. I guess all i have to do is keep trying!

Matt,
To solve yours:

I just collected the key down the bottom left, then all of the light bulbs, and then used the arrow in the black area at the start to turn the right way to exit through the door - it is possible.

To solve Level 3:

When you start, try collecting the bulb and switch on the left below you.
