First, the menu is amazing! You've got audio options and controls! We didn't have the time to include our controls into the game. But the audio options don't seem to work, though.

The graphics are cool and the music is alright. It makes for a nice little puzzle game.

So the controls are very fast, which makes it hard to control your character in these tiny levels. Maybe bigger levels could help as well?

You definitely need to work on a tutorial. When I got to the first level where I had to rewind, it was quite overwhelming. I also only realized later, that you can hold to throw faster. Well, and I never figured out how to jump higher, as some levels look like I need a double jump. I also quit the game on the level with the things that hold your ball, because I didn't figure out how to make the jump. And then I couldn't try again because you don't have a save system.

The levels are also too difficult, but maybe you just need to balance out the difficulty curve. But on the first level where you need to rewind, you've got so little time. It took me 5 minutes to finish it with 0.01 time remaining. Playtesting is quintessential for getting the difficulty of puzzles right. 

A good puzzle is all about figuring out the solution. That's when it's interesting. Of course only if you eventually figure out the solution. But when you have the solution, it should be effortlessly to execute it, or at least as effortless as possible. But too often it took me more time trying to execute the solution instead of figuring it out.

And here's something that I REALLY appreciate. A quick retry feature. If you have to repeat the same 10 steps every time to try again a game can get very frustrating, but with the quick reload it's effortlessly to try again. I probably would have finished your game wasn't it for the puzzle that I got stuck on and the non-existent save system.

But once I got past the steep learning curve, it was really fun! Your mechanic is great. It's really fun to play around with it, and that is really good for a game. I can see a lot of potential here.

Overall, I think you have a pretty cool idea and game. It definitely has potential!

I almost rage quited the last second to last level because I didn't know you could walljump xD Found it by a fluke and maybe I just missed it in some text. But I loved it! It was a lot of fun and frustrating at the same time ^^ 

Really cool idea. Loved the pixel art. Nice bit of juice as well. Great work!

Awesome game. Nice pixel art and an interesting idea. Great level of polish, too. I loved the mechanics of sharing one ball with a ghost. It is implemented pretty well. Also, this game feels incredibly good. I don't have any complains or even suggestions about gameplay, maybe you could slow time even more when aiming and make a bigger collider for a ball when you're catching it, because it travels very fast.

Amazing job!

First game in the jam that I've played made with Gamemaker Studio 2, real nice. The graphics are cute, controls were smooth and easy to understand, you get a plus for "coyote jumping" 😉
However, I find it dificult to deploy the ghost and work with it. Maybe my reflexes are not high enough, so it might help if there's some kind of slow-mo for setting up the player's catching position. I do get where you're going with this and I find the mechanic interesting, so keep up the good work!

This is a really inventive take on the theme! There are quite a lot of games in this jam where the player has to contend with their previous actions but this one plays very differently and adds a fair amount for strategy. There's definitely a lot of room for expansion and this could easily developed into a full game. I had a lot of fun playing this one!

Really enjoyed playing it. You really had to get the timing just right for some of the levels :D  Before the clones appeared, I thought that the title was the only thing "fitting" the theme (Nice pun btw). Quater BACK, hilarious

The controls were nice, but something was off about the wall jump. Can't figure out what it is. Maybe it's just me being bad at the game, since no other comments mention this.

Your game is really polished compared to mine. You really did a good job on polishing and making this game good with the amounts of time allotted to us. This is one of the good games I played in this jam.

Wow, amazing game. The controls and gameplay feels super polished. At first I wasn't convinced at all, when the rewind/clone was introduced it was when I started seeing the potential. The level design, the gameplay, the art and sound, etc are excellent. This is a very fun and enjoyable game. At first it seemed very difficult, but when you get used to it is a very satisfying game. Great job! Keep it up.

An amazing game. Feels polished. Love the Camera wiggling and all the effects. Great work!

Amazing, incredible, professional. Just all around polished and great. It feels like a complete game, not a jam game. 

Excellent submission, one of the best I've played so far. Idea is great, movement was very smooth and responsive and art and sound design is very well made. Overall, the game was super fun to play and felt very polished. Great job!

I like it, although I think the explanation on how to catch the ball and different timelines needs a lot more explaining, I kept right-clicking and getting nothing and then there were like 3 versions of me so it was confusing xD 

Super cool idea though and I liked the artstyle. The movements felt really clean and speedy which was great!

I actually fricken loved this! I think I possibly just found my new fav game of the jam!

I loved that the movement of the character was quick and snappy and the wall jumping was easy enough. 

I loved that the mechanic of throwing/catching the ball had multiple implications; it allowed you to kill enemies, allowed you to jump again, allowed you to become a platform for future iterations, and also required you to plan around where it was going for the multiple iterations. Seriously loved it, brilliant game design. 

It was super fun! Sure, it was challenging, but I think a game like this needs to have a decent degree of challenge. Perhaps the hit detection could be slightly more forgiving, but maybe not, maybe its great just as it is (at first i thought it might be abit TOO precisse, but mid-sentence i thought "well i did finish it afterall, which I can't say i've done for all the games i've played in this jam"). 

Graphics and audio were very nicely polished, had good amounts of juice in it for a game jam game.

Usually I go into depth with what could be improved, but I am actually struggling to find faults with this game. Perhaps allowing the player to scan the level before starting may be a nice touch. Perhaps having a couple of visual markings on the level background to help line up a target (e.g. if there were little blemishes on the wall and i threw the ball at one from a particular spot and the ricochet JUST missed the enemy then I would know to aim slightly higher/lower to that blemish next time). These are pretty minor improvements obviously though, which is a credit to how good I think your game is.

The only thing I noticed which would be a bug is that crossing out the sound/music buttons on the menu didn't seem to actually stop the music.

I can't emphasise enough how much I liked your game, I think this has good potential to be a real game with more levels. Now go review more people's games so they are tempted to play yours, because yours deserves more views/reviews than it has. 

Wow!! This game is surprisingly, very very well polished! I'm surprised why it hasn't been rated so much yet! Here are my 2 cents:

1) Amazing art, sound design and mechanics all flow cohesively really well. As a platformer, the controls are paramount and here - I think you nailed it very well! The jump feels good and just about right. The throwing and catching feels good too! I think you got off an AMAZING start and it's great!

2) Very fun, inventive puzzle game. Having to juggle between timelines and throw pass to your alternate selves is quite brain-busting. I admittedly never managed to finish past a level as it got too hard but that's actually a plus in my book - difficult puzzles are the ones worth solving!

3) Back in terms of art, your art direction is amazing - great spritework from the football to the simple background, I think the game as a whole looks amazing. If you ported this into a mobile game with a much more deeper tileset, it would look just fine!

Your game has a lot of polish added and with a simple mechanic in mind, it looks good! Even the screen transitions in-between, you look like a veteran developer just from this prototype alone! Looking forward to see if you take this much further!

Woof that was hard. I don't quite get how to stack timelines properly yet, but I want to  learn. The menu and physics were top notch.

I'd love if you could have a look at my game, if you have time.

The game mechanics is really good! But the time frame is really too small for the player to catch the ball for some levels. Good concept though!
