In what way does your game fit the theme?
The main mechanic is that enemies have to frequently rewind themselves to remain active.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Did the code myself. Modified assets for the sounds. All the visuals and the music were made from scratch.

This game has a interesting story! The information you gather from the various items in the mansion gives a lot more depth and really fleshes things out. I couldn't get to the end because I kept getting caught but you can just tinker around with the difficulty by doing more playtesting. It would also be nice to have a visual indicator to see how wound the enemies are and how much time there is. Overall really interesting submission! I hope you continue working on this!
I had a lot of fun playing your game. The art looks nice and the sounds fit very well. I think the story is very nice. Overall a great game. Good Job!
I´ve submitted a local multiplayer game: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/722755. I would be happy to get your feedback on it. :-D (I also commented on your topic)
I do not usually play this kind of game, it isn't really my thing. But I found it fun for a while, the game feels very unforgiving when i comes to getting caught, mostly when caught when trying to exit the room after spinning the thing.
The story element was nice.
Yes that was cool ! love the graphics and the story part! the gameplay is quite simple but that's work ! Congrats !
I can't believe that was built in a week! Really impressive. Loved pretty much everything!
That was awesome !! Gave you all my stars good sir, I was really into it !
Musics were so great, and the story was entertaining. I loved the robots mechanics and I was like...really into it ! Almost couldn't stop ! Well Done !!
Hey, cool game! It was really fun playing it. Congrats on the jam! Rated.
Very nice game! I really enjoyed playing it. Only thing I'm hoping you could fix is the difficulty. Enemies walk way too fast and players field of view is too small. You die almost every time you see an enemy. Unless you have some quick reflexes or get lucky and an enemy stops to rewind itself.
I managed to get to turn the key in one room but I did not know what to do next. Do I have to run back to the door without dying? Maybe you could stop all the monsters once key has been turned to allow player safely return to the main room. :)
Graphics were awesome and I liked music too.
Yes, you are supposed to go back to the entrance without getting caught.
I'll keep in mind the idea of turning the enemies off when you turn the key, didn't think about it during the dev.
As for the difficulty, yeah.
It seems to be the most common thing to say about the game, so I'll make sure to fix that if a v2 is made.
Probably more checkpoints and slow down the enemies.
The game looks so cool! I really like the menu and the enemies. I think it's a bit hard to avoid the enemies and it was exhausting to start the level from the beginning every time. Also, when you enter the range of the enemy, it's starting to follow you and it looks a bit weird cause it walks above the wall.
Anyway, I had some fun playing it. You made something cool. Good job :)
Your game had a really mysterious touch, good job. I really liked the art and music, though you still should improve them, i really could see how much effort you put in the game.
But sometimes the movement and sight was a bit tricky by some walls, you really should look how other games like yours handle wall collision, player sight etc.
And maybe you make the levels at the begin smaller, maybe first with only one enemie and more explanation about the strange grandfather.
This is my game, would be nice to get some feedback

Nice game
Your game is awesome. Very interesting mechanics about the enemies rewinding.
I'm afraid I couldn't finished due to a bug in the last level (I think it is the last level). Opening the last door (with the wind down the 4 giant robots), the door disappear , but the collider don't, so I can pass through the last section 😥
Would love to try it again after the bug is fixed. Anyway... Congratulations!
Music and graphics are wonderful, nice job on these. But I think it is too hard, enemies are so fast and it takes a lot to finish a room. But the idea is very original, instead of you rewiniding, the enemies does. So points for you! It is a cool game with a nice story, but if you add more things and adjust a few things, the game would be great!
Nice job on the game! Be sure to check my game too!
couldn't figure out the last room, got the other two. Cool take on the theme. Art and music go well together.
Awesome game! Love the music, the art, the sounds. The enemy design is really cool too, but I was having major trouble trying to avoid them in the large room after the trapdoor. I felt like they were too fast, but maybe I just have to wait for them to rewind every time. Wonderful job!
Yeah, I was a bit too eager to make giants for the basement, and made them too fast as a result, cause it looked weird to have them at the normal speed of their lesser siblings.
Glad you enjoyed it, despite my blunder with this room.
Really nice game - great art, great audio, great story, and great gameplay!
Wow just wow, such an incredible game! Really nice art and audio! This game took the theme in such a unique and new way which keeps this game fresh. A nice story with good graphics and audio. Absolute amazing job in this one!
this was really nice and atmospheric. I played until the big room after the trap door and lost too many times xD. maybe the difficulty spike is a bit steep there. but very nice work overall
