In what way does your game fit the theme?
The player has the ability to reverse flying projectiles. In other words: rewind time for them.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, i did code the game by myself and did all the "artwork". Sounds were generated with bfxr.

It is really cool. i think that the sound for the rewind should be removed or replaced.

*maybe you would also like to try and maybe rate my submission*

Nice mini game. Had fun deflecting those bullets. However, the 'rewind' voice every time you rewind is a bit annoying)

Submitted

Really good idea. But it doesn't make you play itself. I think when playing a game we should hear it sayin "play me!".  So I just played a couple of minutes. But it's really good to rewind and make enemies shot themselves.

Very fun and addicted.
Cool idea for rewind enemy bullet.

Interesting idea but the gameplay needs some polishing. As other people already noted, the rewind action feels a bit too slow and unresposive (also slow motion effect feels kinda laggy). You can definitely make the game feel much better with smoother animations and signals (like when the enemy is about to shoot you can spawn some particle effect). Good job anyway :)

The idea of reversing the enemies' bullets to attack the enemies was a really cool idea, though at times it felt a little too difficult. I think some enemies shouldn't have spawned so close to the play bar, and the will smith sound got too annoying after the first few times. I would've also liked the reverse to not take 5-ish seconds every time I do it, as this game requires you to do it quite a lot. But nice work!

Thanks for being so honest! Yeah, maybe i made too many changes to some parameters which i also didnt playtest because i did them a few minutes before submitting. But if im going to remake this one i will surely look more into it!

The game is fun to play though hearing will smith everytime i rewind is a bit irritating after a while

Developer

Yeah, don't really know why i implemented this audio. My friends thought it was funny and i just added it out of nowhere. If it's possible i will remove Will Smith from the audio, don't know if its possible to update during rating phase. But anyways, thanks for playing!!

Submitted

It was funny the first few times

if you can then try Adding will smith only once when you click play

Hi there! I really like the simpel core mechanic! It is really easy to understand and allows players to quickly enjoy the game. The rewind feature is neat and fits well! The only thing missing is a little background tune to fill the silence, but overall a good and fun submission!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! I wanted to include one or two songs, but time was running out and i was in a hurry. And i also don't really know what music could fit. Anyways, thanks for playing!

The game is great and a nice way to interpet the theme, enjoyed playing it!

Developer

Great to hear that! :D
