Nice graphics and easy mechanism. Great work!

Hi, Very great game with simple but very nice graphics. I liked the levels and the system of stars you introduced. Only sad there isn't any sounds. Waiting for more :)

Submitted

Great game! It was cool to figure out, that you can make a double jump :) It would make the game even better, when a few sound effects were added later

Submitted

Great game! the graphics are really good and some sound effects would really bring it to life!

Cool game, really lacking sounds, but still nice and fun.

Also gave me some ideas to add to the game I made, so thanks for that :D

Developer

thanks for the review! unfortunately i didn't have enough time to add sounds :(

One of the first things that caught my eye was the trail behind the cube :-) other than that, I liked how easy it was to restart so that it didn't feel like you were being punished for not figuring out how to do it first time round - I think it added a lot to the sense of wanting to play more. Brilliant puzzle game! 

Developer

I'm glad you liked it!

Things I liked, I felt you had an awesome concept for rewind and I liked how in the last level you showed a way to even interrupt your past self. Taking a mechanic and then building variations is exactly what needs to be done to make puzzle platformers like this interesting in the long run. It was also intuitive as in a lot of the puzzles if the player was observant enough from the start they can solve them in one go which is very appreciated.

Things I didn't like, honestly felt a bit short to me. You introduced a new mechanic in the last level but didn't build upon it after which was unfortunate. In addition I feel like it was lacking something else in gameplay to add some depth to it. That can easily just be chalked up to a time constraint though so no biggie.

Overall I really enjoyed your game and I hope your proud of where it's ended up after this week!

Thanks for the review! 

It's indeed quite short. I would have liked to make more levels with more features, but like you said, there was a time limit. 
I'm glad you liked the game and I'm certainly proud of what I was able to get done in a week. Especially since this was the first "real" game I made.

Loved the level designs… Its quite challenging… :) I found the jump to be quite stubborn… but I guess thats what makes it challenging. Play my game as well :) All the best.

I'm glad you liked the levels (that's the part I had the most trouble with :) ). I'm definitely going to check out your game!

V nice. At the end I wanted more levels :) 
have a run through of Re-Destine https://ajjmcc.itch.io/re-destine and have a gander at some of the level designs, a few are similar, but a few different :D

Developer

Thanks for playing my game! I'm gonna play your game as soon as I have some time :)

Simplistic (in a good way) puzzle game. I love these. Good job! Can't wait to see more levels if you continue to develop this.

Please play and rate my game too if you can:

Nice game. Liked the mechanic and level design, great job! Some feedback, i would try adding some sound eff to make it feel really juicy

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you liked it! I wanted to add some sound effects, but I didn't have enough time left. I will definitely make more time for that in future jams! 

Submitted(+1)

Simple, but good! Would have liked to see more levels exploring more interactable elements and some nice sound effects

Developer

Thanks for the review! I will free up more time for more levels and sound effects in future jams.

The game is pretty fun, but it starts to easy. more rewinds per level will be welcome too. Still one of the more enjoyable games.

Developer
