Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I write most of the code and made all the graphic assets. I did not make the sounds and music.

This was a lot of fun! I love the idea, great take on the theme!

Submitted

Absolutely great game. I love the low poly art style and the music fitted very well. The only thing that I can mention is, that the music stopped at some point.

Submitted

Nice game, like the low poly environment and characters well done!!

Submitted

I love it! I didn't see this take on the theme been used on another entry, Very good!

Submitted

Ok this game is really unique and different from all the other ones! I really like the concept of it and it is very original, the sound design is absolutely amazing, the music really makes the game feel fun to play! The theme matches perfectly!


Also I would really like some support on my game, it hasn't been getting much support and this is my first game jam so idk how these really are supposed to work...

Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed. I would love to play your game, but I have a Mac and can't run .exe files. Do you have a Mac build somewhere? I couldn't find it. Also, to get ratings I just went and rated a bunch of people's games over the past few days. I think most people will return the favor for you.

Submitted

would a webGL version work? I have my own games website and I could make that work.

Developer

Yeah if you put up a webGL version I'll definitely play.

Submitted

I really enjoy the idea and how you get the theme, it's fun to play and somehow stressful. Great work

Developer

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed

Submitted

Cool take on the theme

Submitted

Great game! The idea is silly and very funny, I like it a lot! Everything is smooth, the music suits very well and I had a lot of fun playing it, good job!

Developer

Thanks! I tried to make it goofy so I'm glad you found it funny!

Submitted

I like the idea and I had a lot of fun playing it, really nice entry and good game! I only wish you could see people in the big map as well, but a very good rating! Would appreciate if you could play my game too :)

Developer

Thanks for playing! I agree, seeing people on the big map would help you plan out your paths. Glad you enjoyed!

Submitted

Really funny game. Would have never thought of this Idea for the theme. Also the music is perfect for the game. Maybe you could add that the player can see the employees on the big map (not just on the radar) to be able to plan more ahead.

Developer

Thanks for playing! I agree that seeing the employees on the big map would be a good change so you could plan out your routes better. Glad you found it funny!

Submitted

This concept is really intriguing and a nice spin on the theme. The music is well-matched to the game as well, and, overall, it is really well-made! 

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it

Submitted

Don't know why, but somehow i found the idea of this game very intriguing :D Look and feel of the game was great but I always seemed to reach a clock after a worker :P

Developer

Thanks for playing! Your game looks really neat from the screenshots and I want to play it but I have a Mac sadly :(

Submitted

I really liked how you used the theme! The concept its original and pretty fun to play around!

Great Job!

Developer

Thanks for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed it! I really want to play your game, but I have a Mac :(

Submitted

I really liked this one! Original, pretty tough and not too hard to understand :) A highscore would be cool to have tracked somewhere (maybe it's there but didn't see it!) :)

Thanks for sharing!

Developer

Thanks for playing! I agree, a high score would've been great. I wanted to do it but ran out of time. Glad you enjoyed it!

Submitted

It is a very original idea, I really liked it. The controls were a bit uncomfortable though, and there wasn't really that much strategy, you just kinda went to the arrow and then to another, then there are 3 arrows and now everyone's home. But I guess that just needs a little more tweaking.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! I agree that you just go from clock to clock. I bet it would be more of a puzzle if there were ways you could divert the employees to prevent them from going certain places, or maybe have shortcuts for the player to go through.

Submitted

I really liked this game. I loved messing with employees by messing with the clocks to keep them working. However, I wasn't a big fan of the control scheme, as it felt a bit awkward to move around by clicking on the map. It would have been much better to use WASD or the arrow keys to move around. I also wasn't too fond of the art style, as it looked a bit clunky. Other than those things, great job on this game!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! It probably would have been best to give the player multiple options to move around. 

Submitted

Very original take on the theme. Most people thought about Rewind in a more abstract way, but your interpretation really stands out. Fun and clever, well done!!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it

Submitted

Funny concept, I love that you gave the idea a different spin then most games. Some tips for the future, the click to move would "feel" better if you were able to hold the mouse click and the player keeps running. Besides that, it wasn't obvious on the map with clocks to rewind so I was running around all the time anyway, and even then the time on the clock didn't change, but just the outline changed from yellow to red. That felt a bit weird. Besides those 2 things I really liked it.

Developer

Thanks for playing and your feedback! I agree with you on the mouse hold part, that would make it easier to move around. Putting the clock status on the overhead map would've been helpful to see where you need to go. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks again for the feedback

Submitted

Very fun interpretation of the theme. Had a good chuckle even reading the description xD Also a really good job to make all those models and animations in such a short time!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you found it funny

Submitted

good idea and good music choice. i enjoyed it

Developer

Thanks for playing!
