Well the setting and mood are amazing, there's simple yet captivating story and the puzzles are well crafted! Very enjoyable experience, nice progression and ending.

It would really mean a lot if you told us what you think of our game as well I'd be very curious...

i liked the art alot and the actual game concept is really interesting :)

Really nice art and puzzle design. The thing that struck me the most was how well you convey the weight of the character, with both animation and a very beautifully crafted sound design. The only thing i'd improve is the fact that you can get stuck in the vertical platforms. A simple Physics2D material with 0 friction could do the trick. And let me tell you, way to tie up the end of the game and it's start, probably the best i've seen

Developer

Thank you! Yeah I tried to fix the getting stuck thing but was running out of time and the friction didn't work so I had to make do. I worked really hard on the ending so I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Awesome game! Really cool mechanics and good level design! Love the little ending as well! Really nice work!

I loved your character sprite and the death's animation. 

If you want to check mine, its also a puzzle game. Maybe you can prove that pirates can rewind bombs in time to solve riddles haha.

this game is so fun and uniqe! the graphics are really good. and the mechanic is great and smooth. 

I wish there was a restart level button.

AMAZING work! waiting for another games in the future!

Developer(+1)

I guess the restart button is jumping off haha, thanks for playing!

Nice concept! I really enjoyed it playing. Great entry, nice work!

A really fun game with a cool mechanic and really good graphics! My favourite part of the game was the movement of the character, you could really feel the weight when he jumps.

Developer

Thank you, I worked hard on making the old man feel heavy!

Submitted(+1)

Great soundeffects and cool parallax effect in the background. Was a bit repetetiv with the sound starting over after each round. Otherwise a cool looking game!

Developer

What sound do you mean?

Submitted

The ticking sound. But i noticed now it is the sound the platforms make when moving :). my bad.

Submitted(+1)

I really liked the wind (?) meachnic. The movement felt a little bit to slow, nothing bad but still. Also, the death animaiton is hilarious.

Developer

I intentionally made the movement a bit slow because I thought that'd be more fitting for the old man. thanks for playing!

I Love how polished this game is! :D
From the beginning to the end, everything seems to be super polished and finished.
The levels might have been a little bit too easy for me 😅
Except for the last one every Level was like straight up rewinding the platforms as much as possible 🤔
But this game has a high potential on actually being a very very good puzzle platform.
The sound is also on top! 👌

Developer

Thanks Yannick! Yeah I intentionally made the levels easier as I wanted the game to be easy and short, but I do agree I could've messed with the platform speeds a little more.

Submitted(+1)

Really love the game! Has lots of potential! Game design is cool, and even the death animation looks good!
