In what way does your game fit the theme?
Taking and giving back souls (rewinding life), and levels start over automatically and often after failings part of the level or death.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote it myself, assets used are for the graphics/ animation not the code. Used brackeys video's for some code too ;)

The game is pretty interesting, the graphics, intro and audio is really good.

a couple of bugs I found were this:

when moving forward and shooting player goes up for no reason, and can basically fly

the souls can be easily missed, ruining levels.

the player shoots in the direction its walking, not the direction its aiming, so its really hard to fight.


overall, its a good game, and with some more polish would be pretty interesting. Nice Work :D

This is a very cool game with an amazing intro (the text should be more readable) but the gameplay needs some polish. In the first level you could fly between platforms, and sometimes be over the enemies, the soul skill not always works as expected and (personal opinion) I'd change the aim controls, I'm not a big fan of rotating the camera in a top-down game with the mouse. Having said this, I think the main problem was overscoping,  because the potential that has this game is not something that you can easily accomplish in 1 week. So, amazing job, this is an ambicious and great submission that can become a very good game.

I loved the intro! The graphics and music were on point and it almost felt like I was playing something much bigger.

When the main game started though, I had some serious issues.

Great!

  • Intro is fantastic and cinematic
  • Nice use of color
  • The music was pleasing
  • I like the idea of the rewinding mechanics

Could be improved

  • The controls feel very clunky and there are no instructions on what do exactly
  • The character was floating above everything, meaning I couldn't hit enemies and they couldn't hit me. I was also able to float between platforms. This is a glaring bug, but I'm not sure how I managed to do that.
  • The game doesn't lock the mouse, so the game constantly lost focus with my 3 monitors while I was trying to look and move

This game has potential, but I feel like too much effort was put into the intro while the main game could've used some more love.

Cool game, amazing intro and great graphics- good job!!!!

I found a bug that if you are on an edge of a platform with yellow outline and you attack with the sword you can fly through the level..
