Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 29 → 0.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About

Ari just wanted extra credit. Instead, he became the accidental wingman in a time-traveling heist to help his physics professor woo the history teacher. Perfect for Controllers and Steam Deck!

LIFTED channels the spirit of classic adventure games, mixing wholesome platforming with high-stakes discovery. Follow clues to find the lost Tiara, solve environmental puzzles, and master fluid movement. Professor Raventhorpe provides the "Vision" while you provide the manual labor.

But keep your head on a swivel. When the villains show up (or an avalanche starts), the pace explodes. The only way out is through.

Professor Raventhorpe’s "Anytime Elevator" hurtles you through both time AND space. In this machine, the floor numbers map to history.
Hit the button for Floor 1712, align the map to the Caribbean, and you arrive in the Year 1712. Right in the middle of pirate-infested Tortuga! But watch out: while the Elevator gets the time right, it rarely lands exactly where you expected. Prof. R is still working out the kinks...
Experience a story full of heart, humor, and 80s movie magic featuring top-tier voice acting from Joe Gaudet as Ari, Ray O'Hare as Professor Raventhorpe, and Evan Widjaja as Julius.
The Slacker: Ari just wants to go home.
The Genius: Professor Raventhorpe will do anything for love.
The Chinchilla: Julius is the only one who knows what he's doing.

Thanks for stopping by! If you have a few minutes, give the FREE DEMO a try and experience the beginning of Ari’s adventure today.

[h2]Now that's an adventure![/h2] Lifted (formerly Ari Buktu and the Any Time Elevator) captures the best of classic platformers like Rayman Legends and Gex, then launches you into a delightfully whacky time-traveling adventure that feels straight out of a Marty McFly escapade. The game’s heart, though, is Julius, a mascot so charming he deserves his own spin-off or, at the very least, a plush toy. Story is short, but every moment a joy. Without Julius, this just wouldn’t be the same. If you’re looking for a platformer with genuine character and humor, this one’s a must-play. It's more like a narrative comedy, than a tradition sense of adventure. Do your thing, soak in the atmosphere and a few laughs. Great times.

8.5/10 | Charming | Comedic | Wonderfully Nostalgia Feels! LIFTED is an incredibly charming and wonderful adventure platformer with a few puzzles here & there but nothing majorly challenging so don't worry if you're not great at puzzles like myself! IF you enjoyed playing various platformers like Rayman // Ratchet & Clank // Crash Bandicoot & others with that similarity of story development & charm then this game is absolutely for you. This game me that cheesy storyline plot with joyous moments, plenty of silly humour with a fun adventure themed twist to the whole game alongside a multitude of different environments to enjoy as you progress throughout the game. Zero performance issues. Zero lag or crashes. Zero errors & nothing but smooth sailing from start to finish. I couldn't honestly fault this game whatsoever even if I did want to. The ONLY downside to this game is the length. In my honest opinion I wish it would have been at least 5-6 hours long but I am happy regardless. I'll definitely revisit this in the future for the collectable side of things and shall once again experience the joy that this game gave me today but in the future again as this is bound to cause smiles all round. I was kindly gifted this key via the developers and for that I'm eternally grateful. I'm not sponsored nor paid to promote this game, I merely enjoyed it THAT much and my stream viewers enjoyed it equally. Thank you Adventure Works L.L.C for an incredible & new platformer in 2026 that I was able to have a blast with. 100% Recommend this game - Just be aware it's very short. 2.5 - 3.5 hours total.

A lively and vibrant platformer with a ton of heart and a fair bit of challenge.
It's a charming game as they say and the graphics are great. My Grandkids are going to really enjoy this game. I did run into a couple of glitches, but overall a fun, family game that has some challenging platforming. I'd give it an 8 out of 10 rating. I completed the first run through in 4 hours and I am not an advanced player.
Really enjoyable, fun platformer. Can't wait to see what this team does next.
Super moment sur ce jeu de plateforme, pas très long (3 à 5 heures), mais au gameplay impeccable, aux musiques savamment orchestrées, et la petite histoire gentille façon Retour Vers Le Futur qui passe bien. Un excellent jeu pour se détendre entre deux jeux plus difficiles.
A surprise. Great game.
This game is very inspired from "Back To The Future". If you are not sure about buying the Game. Just play the demo. If you liked the demo the game is more of that with some extra game mechanics. The game is good. It will not blow you away but for the time you will speed in it, about 2 a half-3 and a half hours. You will enjoy your time. I would recommend waiting for a sale. Around $10 would be best. Overall it is a fun game, but a little short.
Definitely a recommended story game! Even though the story was a bit short, it was fun and very entertaining. Please make a LIFTED 2. I would buy it on the spot!
I really love the “Back to the Future” movie series. I loved the humor in the dialogues between Ari and the Professor—it made me laugh at times. The game is short, but finding all the collectibles takes quite a while—there’s just one left to collect. My total playtime, including collecting, was 8.5 hours. The puzzles and platforming elements are just right. I had a lot of fun playing the game. Thanks for Turkish Language Support. 8/10 My Gameplay Video with Turkish Subtitle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWWDNK8Vgek
