You boot up a game. There's no tutorial. No clear objective. Just a "Start" button... somewhere.
Just Get Started is a surreal platformer where the start is always just out of reach. Navigate a series of glitched-out start menus, broken launchers, and corrupted interfaces in search of that one elusive button: "Start."
Each level is a different interpretation of what it means to begin—some playful, some eerie, and some... unsettling. With a hint of SCP-inspired weirdness, you’ll explore liminal UI spaces, shifting rules, and false starts. But what happens when you finally press the real Start?
