This is really good! vary polished with excellent sound design. I like you take on the theme too. I did something similar for my game (which also happens to take place in a clock)

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The player rewinds the cogs to reverse the direction of platforms, and another reason that won't be revealed until the end.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code and made all the art myself. Some sound effects were used from Freesound under the Creative Commons licence.

Oh god this is a masterpiece. I follow your channel but this is absolutely the best game you've made in a jam so far. the attention to ditails is amazing, you can feel the oldness of the character by his speed, his animation, the sound effect, the camera shake: you feel his heavyness.
brilliant
if you want to give a try to my submission too, I'd really appriciate it.
Remember that in the third level due to a bug it doesn't show up the "press shift to rewind" text
Very relaxing platformer puzzle game, the pixel art looks great as well. I also like your take on the theme, it's unique and allows for some good puzzles. The character movement feels somewhat slow, but I don't mind, I think it helped with making more accurate jumps in the long run. Great work!
The game looks amazing, really you must've put your heart in the game while making it.
First 5/5 I gave out in this jam really lovely game. The audio especially makes a really melancholic atmosphere. Puzzles were a bit simple but I'm not a big fan of puzzle games so that suited me.
Very cute little game. I think the puzzles could have been slightly hard toward the end but its still great! and the ending is amazing
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...
Played it straight to the bitter ending. Died the "right" number of times (sometime by suicide:)
Loved it!
This is very beautiful game, i love the art, the sounds and the feel as well, you did really good job here!
