Real nice! Love the idea and execution is good. I think I found a glitch where you can move the dust mountains if you jump into them. I eventually got so many of them the FPS dropped bad. Nice idea though and so more different obstacle types would definitely make it more fun.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
You're a Spec of Dust caught in a VHS that is being Rewound. You have to avoid the other dust and try not to get pushed into the Reel.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I made all the Art Assets from Scratch and I wrote all the code myself. The Audio files I have the license to.

Thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it. When I first set it up I noticed I could push the dust, I was going to take that off but I thought it might be kinda cool to be able to push them away if you're about to die, turns out everyone is just confused by it and when they build up it just crashes the game lol. Once the rating period is over I am going to change that, fix the bugs, add more obstacles/enemies types and some nice effects.
Loved your take on the theme. Was fun. I like these infinite runner type games (see mine) Music and art went well together and the mechanics were good. I think I only lasted around 30 seconds... will go back and try to beat that later.
Good job!
Could you please play and rate my game too?

ORBI (A Survival Game)Good game, I have fun playing it. You can push the mountain dust and is kinda weird and maybe more variation of obstacles would be nice. Anyways Good Job.

Back in LabNice runner. Music and graphics are chill. The screen is small enough that jumping over the obstacles is mostly reaction rather than planning. Also, you can keep jumping and moving while off-screen. I think I broke your game b/c I probably ran off the platform off screen and dived down to infinity lol

Rewind ForestGreat idea theme-wise! Not sure if I just bugged out, but I was able to just hold right off-screen and spam jump. Then I just watched the game play itself for a minute, as I never came back on screen.

InfiltrationHi, i've played and rated your game. Its fun to play, but for the next time, change the weights of the huge dust piles. Now you can just push them away. And i think thats not the goal of the game. But nevertheless, good job!

Rewind Inc.I love how simple it is. I only have two things to judge. Making the reel affecting the player would have been nice and clearer shapes/outlines of the dust-obstacles + varierty of them. But I had fun, the movement felt really clean and good. Nice job!

Box 'o' LLectorthank you so much as this is my first game ever. I'm a Web developer by trade but I've always really wanted to get into game dev, I decided to start learning C# and unity about 3 weeks ago and heard a lot of devs saying to do as many jams as possible so I decided to try, this was a very tiring week doing the jam after work every day but so worth it.
Go to 58 before it started to slow down and then just kind of froze. Still really enjoyed playing it!
