In what way does your game fit the theme?
After playing the game, you will wish that you have a real life rewind mechanic, to teleport you back to before you have ever played this game.

Rewind is in the games story, there is also a movement rewind mechanic and rewind after each run.

We know the game is not finished, but we hope that you like what we have done so far.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Code is done by us, graphic assets are also done by us, but regarding the audio we found royalty free song.

Even tho the game is not finished, there is a lot of potential! The art is absolute stunning and the concept was really nice. I probaly don't have to talk about the lack of feedback or the not working health UI, cause you definitelly know that more than anyone.  I think that if you stick to the 60s to get to the end of the level formula and resolve the problems it can become a really good game!

Graphics are really cool! Was a bit frustrating to die after one hit when there is a 5 heart visual in the bottom left corner.  Some sound effects would have been nice to hear too. Other than that, it was a  quality game! I got to the store in 22 deaths.

I love this graphic! It would be cool if there was an attack sound for the player and for the enemies. The idea is cool and I like this portal idea! Good game :)

It would be cool if you also rate my game^^

The game is pretty fun as a speedrunning game, and I really enjoyed it once I found the best route to the store. From my playthrough there wasn't much incentive to fight enemies or rewind their movements, since doing those things would just take time and probably get you killed. The visuals and music were both really good!

Developer

Thank you :) Yeah the idea was that you get additional time for killing enemies, and coins for buying upgrades, but we didnt get to implement it in time. Thanks for playing

I don't know whats up, but trying to download this results in an error for me everytime. Is there a mirror? Any other source for me to download this from? I really wanna give this a shot.

Developer (1 edit)

Hmm dunno what the issue is, but we will update it with a new Mirror and will let you know :) Thanks!

I think the issue is definately somewhere on my end, I just can't figure out what it is exactly. Thanks for going through the trouble anyways!
