This games's game design is really something special. The game actually made me want to get better to aim for a higher combo. The feedback on everything was great and made the interactions with the player come to life. I feel like this would be the perfect game arcade game with people constantly inserting more and more coins to see how far they can get. Really some amazing stuff

In what way does your game fit the theme?
It's a *bit* of a stretch but you reflect (rewind) projectiles back at enemies to kill them.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yep! All music, sounds, artwork, and programming was done by me.

This games is so much fun, the graphics are wonderful and the gameplay is really good. But I think the game is too hard, in moments there are so much bullets in the screen(My fps even drops sometimes) and it takes some minutes to start getting the game. I loved, the first time I got a 5 combo was really cool but maybe starting the game slower would be better. Anyway, it's a great game, I can see myself playing this more, not even gonna uninstall.
Did you played my game yet?Check it out!
The game is fun to play and I liked the combat system a lot! The graphics look great!
Sometimes the collision detection of the bullets feels a bit weird sometimes but all in all it is a good game with great potential!
I really like that you took the time to set up an installer. Also the game feels pretty awesome to play, nice job!
Definitely a fun game to spend time on! At least for me, whenever I hit the projectiles after a high multiplier the game would "freeze" for a frame or so which made it unreliable for me to hit the next deflects. Otherwise than that, it's a very enjoyable game even though the theme is a bit of a stretch on rewind. The art is great and audio fits well with the game!
For further improvements: Like someone mentioned in the comments, adding obstacles or surfaces which bullets could rebound on would be a fun addition, though it would up the difficulty a little.
Overall, very well done in a week!
Nice game, Like the idea of the rewind and how it works. it is also quite challenging to play with it.
Good Job.
My game is a casual game if you wanna rate is https://misterm.itch.io/mixtape-match , Thanks
The graphics are excellent, the atmosphere you created helps a lot to enjoy your game Excellent game my friend, please rate mine
I like the art style, especially since you did all the art by yourself! It was a bit confusing figuring out the controls at the beginning, but I liked the game once I got into it.
If you have a chance, please check out my game, The Case of the Deviant Detective. Thanks!
Wow, really cool concept!
- Really like the concept that, rather than focusing on hitting the enemy, you focus on deflecting their bullets
- Good graphics
- Good "game feel" - a lot of good visual feedback, definitely feels satisfying when you successfully deflect each bullet
- The game gets pretty difficult for me though. It feels like the cannons spawn quicker than the rate that I deflect & kill them. Nonetheless it has really good challenge
Good job on the game!
The combination of the music and the graphics are great! This game made me feel a secret agent haha
The gameplay is also very fun and I will easily spend a lot of time in a game like this!
The gameplay feels nice and I also love how lightweight the game is. good job!
Really awesome game! The top down controls felt great~ The rewind projectiles is a super cool mechanic!! Great game and keep it up! You should keep working on it for sure~
Wow, really fun game! Feels super good to reflect and try to combo with the right timings :D
I give 5 stars for fun and innovation, great work! :)
I'd appreciate if you try our game too! :) https://hadilepanda.itch.io/corewind
This game kept me playing much longer than all the games i've tested so far, and its SO much more fun and interesting than my own game! It took me a few tries to get the hang of the controls but it gets really tense really fast, and the art is super nice too.
Good job!
If you're looking for any feedback:
Some sort of map obstacles would be nice, or some abilities like a shield. The game was laggy when restarting but im guessing you made this completely from scratch? Im really impressed!
