Your health is a stopwatch. Kill things to live longer.

Made in two days for the 2026 GMTK Game Jam.

Threshold is a game where the countdown controls your health, abilities, and difficulty. As the timer gets lower, new abilities unlock and make you stronger. Each hit removes more time than the last, while defeating enemies restores some of it. Gaining time can push you back above an ability threshold and temporarily remove that ability.
