In what way does your game fit the theme?
Your missions is to REWIND time by getting to the Black Holes. Your goal is to go back 4 years and close the first Block Hole. If you can do this, the Earth will be saved.
(Also, I used some VHS rewind SFX/Music.)
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Some basic code I used from previous games/tutorials (audio manager/UI etc.) 50% or more brand new code. All sprite art was made during the week. (I didn't have much time in Unity, but was able to make a lot of pixel art at work)

I really like tha artstyle and an overall game although i dont understand the point of adding crosshair if your character can only shoot infront of himself (It got me really confused at the start) but overall Good Job

Tapey In The LabI enjoyed your game! However, I would recommend putting more emphasis on when you take damage. I didn't know I was taking damage when I first played it. I started purposely running into enemies to see if it actually did something! (It did! Haha!) I think there might be a little thud noise or something, but it was kind of hard to hear. I think something like a slight screen shake may have helped indicate that. But overall, very nice work!

Box 'o' LLectorThe game was surely really well done on the graphical side of things. The enemies and the player ship are okay, but what shined the most to me were the UI and the parallax background, those were really great.
Aside from the eye candy stuff, the game itself is, in my opinion, not that fun. The enemies don't feel different and the powerups are not incisive enough. The gameplay itself doesn't really take anything from the "rewind" theme, which can be okay of course, but I personally prefer when core mechanics of game jam games revolve around the given theme.
The main thing that is lacking and that contributes greatly to draw back the fun in my opinion is the almost total lack of shooting feedback. This kind of games are entirely revolving around moving and shooting, so a lot of care must be put into those, to make them feel as rewarding as possible. Shooting an enemy feels like I'm shooting a wall, so something like screenshakes effect, blinking sprites, more evident animation etc. would have greatly helped the feel of the game. I also didn't really understand what was the point of using the mouse to shoot (with a custom pointer too), when there's no possibility to aim to shoot. I kept going back to the description of the game since I thought that I was missing something. It felt very counterintuitive.
On a smaller note, I also discovered that by staying on the top left corner of the screen you can cheese the whole game, except for the final boss of course.
I understand that you couldn't spend much time actually tinkering the game in Unity and I didn't intend to be mean or anything of course, I just wanted to give honest feedbacks. Given the situation, you've managed to obtain really nice results nonetheless, great job!

EncapsulatedGame was quite fun and interesting! It might be nice to add indicators for when smaller enemies shoot, but that's just a preference.

I.D. RESTARTBeautiful art a 5 star for me! Would have loved more enemies or different power-ups but the game was fun nonetheless especially with the final boss. Theme is lacking a bit but black holes were a nice touch.

Radio Mouseand here it is .one of the good game in this game jam
i loved particle effects and communication style

DeltaShooterReally fun game, I loved the way you did the buildings in the background and the design of the boss was really cool. It'd be cool so see this taken further, maybe incorporating evasive manoeuvres or better power ups depending on how quick the enemy is killed (risk vs reward)?

Rewind DayGreat game! I love the graphics and smooth controls! Background art and particle effects look especially crisp!

Gramps Lost His GlassesReally awsome game, very fun, would be cool if you added some particles when the boss were defeated, or that the player takes damage when the enemies get off the screen. besides from that, awsome game and awsome video!, I hope you had fun making it!

Bob The BlockCould do with some more visual feedback such as screen shake or particle effects but otherwise very fun game.
