The mechanics feel a bit clunky, but the concept is nice!!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
Puzzle solving with various mechanics one of which is a rewind mechanic. And it’s controlled by pressing the right mouse click :D
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, credits are displayed for some sounds and icons.

Its a neat idea with some really nice, clean graphics. Learning was for the most part a cohesive and complete experience, overall a great job!

Winding StringLoved the idea and the puzzles were interesting. Click controls were a bit wonky, but that's pretty easy clean up later. Great work!

I had a great time playing this, though I do need to say I don't think the cover image does justice to the visuals of your game! The levels have a lovely style to them that you might miss when browsing through all this jams entries.
Anyway, great puzzles, brilliant sounds and just a good level of polish overall!

Catastrophe Again- AgainCute little puzzle game. Like the idea, but I think the controls are a little bit off. You wrote that one has to click a little bit above the field where you want to move to but it still felt... not quite right. xD

Expanding StarWow, this game is great! I am a really big fan of puzzle games but I really suck at them so it had a steep learning curve for me. Despite this, I recognize the thought that was put into this game within the short amount of time we had for the jam. Congrats on the game and good luck!

Batteries Not IncludedReally satisfiyng gameplay. I love the sound of the ball rolling around.

Expanding StarReally cool game and idea! It took me a while to get used to how to control the ball properly, I was confused for a while wondering why it kept rolling away from where I was clicking :D I love the colours and the aesthetic of the game, really well done!

Run It BackAn interesting take on the theme leading to interesting and engaging puzzles. The isometric view sometimes made it hard to visualise some of the puzzles though so a feature to switch to a top down view would've been nice, but overall well done!

Something is wrong.Great game!
+ The art is simple but appealing
+ The puzzles are well designed
- Maybe I would have introduced one or two beginner levels to start with the rewind mechanic
Congrats!

Masters of puppetsThe game looks and feels good. If I could criticize one thing though, the tutorial messages are too long to read, and it's too much information at once. Maybe you should start the game with very easy levels, self explaining how the mechanics work, and the introduce new mechanics gradually.
Other than that, great game! Well done.

Rewind Your LifeNice and simple puzzle game. Not much I can say. The simple aesthetics is pleasing to the eye, and the puzzles are kinda fun.
I think the fog effect could have been a bit clearer to the player. (I didn't know where exactly the fog is)
But other than that, good job!
