In what way does your game fit the theme?
You have to dodge lasers that move only when you move. You can also REWIND the lasers at will.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Except audio, everything (Coding, 3D Assets, UI Design, Effects, Level Design) was done by me from scratch.

It is a solid entry. No weak aspects but it doesn't excell either. 3D design and movement felt very smooth, I really liked that.
Thanks for the feedback!
The idea was solid. The simple graphics worked in the games favor and so did the music , however the levels are all very simmilar to each other with not a lot of differences. There is definetly some missed potential but I had fun playing it. I would appreciate if you would check out our game.
Thanks for the feedback ! Glad you enjoyed it. I will surely play/rate your game too.
I really liked the music and the simplistic art style in your game, maybe a better difficulty curve would make the game more challenging, as the last levels are much easier than the ones in the middle. You can also just make the a little longer, which would increase the difficulty a lot. But overall, it fits the theme, you've got great music and it's fun to play, so: nice game jam submission!
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed the game.
The concept of the game was really good and the mechanics were very well implemented. The visuals could have been improved. However, the camera does need some work as it is a bit weird to see sometimes. Apart from that, awesome game.
Could you please take the time to rate my game too? Its not as good as yours but it would mean a lot to me if you rated y game too.
Thanks for the feedback ! Glad you enjoyed it.
Could you please rate my game too?
Sure !
nice and simple concept. funny to play, i tought some levels where quite the same, the first one was the hardest haha. also, i also think it would be nicer to keep rolling the music, i don't think i listened completely while playing.
Thanks for all the feedback !
The concept is really good. The camera was a bit weird for me, It is hard to see where everything is when you're between the lasers, I think Increased FOV should help. And you can rotate the camera when trying to look straight up.
Thanks for the feedback ! I agree with you that increased FOV should help.
Nice, guess we "rewinded" each others ideas. LOL !
Yeet
This is an amazing mechanic, I would have like to seen it utilize a bit better, limited user or been able to use while moving. would make an excellent speed running game.
Thanks for the feedback ! Those ideas are great.
I can read in from the comments that you did not have time for a cooldown for the rewind mechanic and that is the only complaint I have will the game. Since I could freely rewind, the game was missing its challenge and it is a shame :( keep in mind to prioritize defining the challenge of your game and implement that early on. I think you have a nice idea going on here. It was oddly satisfying to dodge the laser and I went through the whole game because of that despite the challenge did not increase alot. Great job! pleasing graphics too!
Thanks for the feedback !
Nice little puzle game. Some levels seemed too easy. Also the ability to rewind obstacles without cooldown make them even more easy. Overall, good game, liked the simplicity and good music, well done!
Thanks for the feedback ! I didn't get enough time to playtest and implement a cooldown mechanic so the levels became too easy.
I tought that rewinding the lasers at will would make this easy, but they are deceivingly close
Haha, LOL!
Hey my friend, enjoyed your game very much. Here is a detailed pros and cons for you!
Pros:
-I love the idea of the game
-The rewinding works like a charm
-Level design is simple yet challenging
Cons:
-I would love to see adjustable mouse sensitivity and also i would like it to be capped at rotating because sometimes i rotate my camera up and the whole world inverts
- Would love to have rewinding to be either time thing where you can rewind once every 5 seconds or something, or one time only. Because with spamming w and rewind i could complete levels without any problems
- Some little sound issues whenever i spam w and shift it plays the sound non stop which can get pretty loud.
Other than that, great game, love the style love the way it is played. Please take this criticism with open mind, i was not trying to offend you if you got offended by this. Would love if you could check mine out as well and leave such criticism as all of that helps with my future development.
Thank you very much and good luck to you !
Thanks for the amazing feedback ! I like criticism on my game so I can improve. Thanks for that !
Nice game but one easy way to solve just stick to the wall and go u can avoid the revolving middle laser thing but solid game
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you liked it.
Pretty solid game. Some levels were (I'm assuming unintentionally) way too easy. One of them in the middle I could just walk straight and finish the level. But I really enjoyed the concept. My only thought would be maybe increase your field of view a bit. You weren't always certain if you were super close to a laser or not just based on looking.
Thanks for all the feedback!
Nice and interesting game! It's an original take on the theme and it went good! Good job
Thanks a lot!
very nice game!! Dying by the walls touching your back felt a bit cheap since you are not able to see how close they are but that is fine, on the levels were there is a hotel door that spins in place you can cheat that part by hugging the walls and you won't die. Other than that, nice game!!
Thanks for the feedback! Glad you liked it.
Nice game, Like the music and puzzles are just hard enough!!well done!
Please rate my game
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it !
liked the concept! well done :)
Thanks a lot !
Do you think you could give us a rate? For some reason rating have been hard to come by :)
Sure I will. No problem!
The idea is cool, but I felt the camera control was a little weird, but nothing that can't be easily fixed, good job anyway!
Thanks, maybe the small FOV is what you're talking about.
I like that everything moves when i move, i did not use the rewind function and I won. Good game regardless.
You must be very good at obstacle courses for that. Nice!
