Nice game! Really cool use of the movement and rewind in one same layer to give the puzzles a really nice challenge. Good Job!

Submitted

Great submission! I like how the game revolves around moving boxes and placing them on buttons! It keeps the game nice and simple. One problem I had was that I sometimes wouldn't be able to jump when standing on the edge of platforms. The rewinding also felt just a little slow, so maybe increase the speed a bit.

Other than that, great job and good luck! I would appreciate it if you could check out my game too! It's about a ball going through a factory as it collects screws to discover 3 different endings!

Really loved the game and the effects, did not finish it, but had fun playing

Please rate mine, thanks!

Super clever puzzles and nice visual effects. Good job!

Fun with nice effects. The music reversing during the rewind is a nice touch.

I liked the graphics. I'm a huge fan of the distortion effect you used when rewinding.

The difficulty curve is a bit weird, though: some levels are much easier than the ones before them. Or maybe it was just me!

It was polished and fun, I don't have anything particularly negative to point out... which is a great thing! My only real complaint is that ends kind of abruptly, after you clear the last level the "Next Level" button still appears, just unclickable. I think at least you should have a "You won!" or "Thank you for playing!" screen or something among those lines. Something to let the player know that it's done.

Other than that, good job!

Loved the art and visuals. Levels were well laid out as well. Great job guys!

Could you please play and rate my game as well?

Cool game! Love the music and the rewind FX. Also tricky puzzles which is good, makes you think :)
Since the player is the only entity that is reversing, I would make the other entities (such as blocks) have some highlights, to know that they're not affected by the rewind mechanic. Great job!

You did an awesome job with this game, simple and fun. The art in general is pretty cute, the puzzles are right at the point (for me, level 4 was the hardest) and its well done. Just some details: when I jump at the edges, it fails sometimes , and at the last level, I can pass the walls to take the flag (probably something with the collider in both cases).

Well done and good work! I really had a good time with your game!

If you want too, please stop by our project to take a look :D

Nice concept! The slime is pretty cute and the puzzles are challenging, although the jump seems a little floaty imho.

Submitted

The puzzles are really hard but that's a good thing!  The jump seems really floaty though, so maybe increasing the slime's fall speed could help.  The sound design and the menus are great though.

Submitted

I just wanna say this is actually pretty cool! Unlike some of the more complicated games, you have a very simple rewind mechanic, and designed your entire game around this. I absolutely love it! I have a few nitpicks that I hope you'd take into consideration for your development moving forward:

1) The jumping feels quite floaty - while it doesn't strongly detract from the experience as your game is more puzzle than platforming, I think having a more rigid, better feeling jump will help. There are plenty of tutorials online that describe what I mean by having a better jump.

2) Funny physics bugs - don't mind it too much though. They are typically visual and there are no bugs that have completely destroyed the game yet. The game is quite good if anything!

Other than that, great simple game! I look forward to more from you in the future!

Submitted

Really good game design and theme interpretation! The physics are sometimes kinda buggy, but that doesn't take away from the great feeling of the game. A really solid entry nonetheless

Submitted

Very cool puzzles and interesting rewind mechanic. The physics are kinda buggy though. You can throw boxes through walls, get stuck in weird places, and if your running into a wall you can't jump. What function in unity are you using for movement? Is friction off?

Submitted

I like the concept, it s fun! Good job

Submitted

Rated!

Really fun game!

Submitted

That's a really fun game (even though I couldn't pass level 4). I like the look of the game and the rewinding ability.  But I found some small "bugs/problems" :  if you click right next to the retry button the game is also restarting and the character is shooting at the button if you restart the level, if you stand on a button while holding a box after a few seconds the button isn't pressed down anymore, in level 4 the bullets you're shooting go through the ground and are only destroyed if they hit the box or the flag.

Apart from that everything worked fine and I really liked the game :)

Submitted

Lovely little game, I enjoyed it! A few of the puzzles had me twisting my noggin for a bit, but once I got it the rest was a breeze :) Well worth the play!

Nice game! I like the concept of only rewinding the player movement. I almost got stuck already on the first level (not tutorial) then it hit me and i moved on. It was pretty fun. It has nice music and sfx and the art was pleasing. Though i must say that there isnt a button to return to the main menu on the settings page. 😅The jump was a little laggy too. But i still had fun with it. Great job!
