What if savestates didn't save everything? What if they saved the player's coordinates, but not their momentum? Well, you could jump before loading a savestate and get even higher up.

This is Savestate. A game for Ludum Dare 48.

Also, let me explain how I got this idea out of the theme. Since “deeper” is just a variant of “depth”, I thought about depth as the third dimension. That reminded me of time as the fourth dimension, which then brought me to the idea of having some sort of time travel mechanic. So it has pretty much nothing to do with the theme.
