Time-bending platformer RECUR announced

RECUR

Publisher Astra Logical and developer kaleidoscube have announced RECUR, a new time-bending puzzle-platforming game.

RECUR is in development for Windows PC (via Steam) and will launch sometime in 2026.

“We are super excited to finally show what we have been working on intensely for over two years,” said Dominik Schön, Managing Director of kaleidoscube. “In fact, our first prototypes for this game date back to 2017 – it’s amazing to finally see it all come together. What excites us most about the game mechanic in RECUR is how we can use it on a small scale for each individual puzzle, but also on a large scale when walking through the city and experiencing the recurring catastrophe.”

Astra Logical managing director Heather Jackson added, “We’re so proud to help bring RECUR to life and share it with players. Day of the Devs gave us the perfect platform to showcase the game, and the feedback we’ve received has been incredible. We can’t wait to let players dive into this story and experience the world kaleidoscube has built!”

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its reveal trailer:

RECUR is a time-bending journey to the end of the world and back. Run, jump, and manipulate time to solve puzzles as the apocalypse unfolds. Can you stop the clock on disaster?

Features

Reverse the Apocalypse – You’re just an average postman, but today is anything but average. It’s the end of the world and you suddenly have the power to control time itself. By moving forwards or backwards, you alone control the flow of time to solve problems, change outcomes, and discover secrets as you try to save the world.

A Smarter Kind of Platformer – You need more than just reflexes to save the world: you’ll need to use your time-bending abilities to solve puzzles and traverse gargantuan obstacles. Explore a world falling apart in your quest to put things right. Or left.

Time for a Hero – How did you get your powers? Why is the world ending? Unravel the secrets of RECUR as you discover a rich and engaging story, brought to you by the brilliant team behind A Juggler’s Tale.
