Pretty cool game I really enjoyed playing it, it was confusing at first but then i started understanding what i had to do. You did some really good job though and I really couldnt think of any ideas to improve the game cuz it looks really well polished.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
You need to be organized to send chaos.
If you don't think too much or do a mistake. The game will become chaotic and very hard.
The game has also a story which talk about chaos. Because you are a mysterious guy who want to eradicate humanity with chaos.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes all codes and sprites are made by me. Illustrations by a friend, music by a friend too but not SFX and font.
SFX are commons creatives 0.

Concept, gameplay, and artwork is good. I do think the tutorial is a bit confusing, but once you understand what's going on it's fairly intuitive.
I think it would be cool if instead of getting sent back to the beginning after each failure, only the present stage resets and the player can choose to step back a level. Like, imagine you get to a certain point where you just can't make forward progress because, for example, your yellow circle can't survive all the deadly lasers in phase 3, so you have to step back and replay a couple levels to adjust the timing of those lasers so that it's survivable in the future. I think this idea would improve the gameplay, and it also would fit with the rewinding time aspect of the game.
Thanks a lot for your comment, it's effectively a problem that encounter players with the punitive aspect of my game.
I thought it was suitable for a die and retry style but it seems not to be suitable anymore.
Moreover I was a bit short of time in the jam and a bit lazy. I admit that with my archaic code, I choosed to not regard the possibility to save a moment and retry it x)
But whatever, maybe after the jam, I will find the time to add your step back idea in my game ?
Cool game, liked the cutscene at the beggining and the gameplay was fun. My highscore was 18
Awesome game! From the start, this game is very fun to play, the beginning cut scene was cool, and the game was awesome! The tutorial is well done, one of the best games so far!
The story is excellent, the tutorial and it's pacing well explain and I love how the chaos is also in the way that gameplay mechanics progress.
Great entry!
This game has tons of character! The main gameplay was fun and you could easily tell how chaotic everything would become. Once I understood how the gameplay works (it took a little bit), I was hooked. Plus all the camera shakes/animations, sounds, UI, the game is just oozing with personality and fit that goofy evil mastermind vibe. Very well done!
the concept is awesome! Such a great game! several times I was clicking too much not being able to see what the goal is for the level. i think it would help to have the goal shown somewhere in UI! Maybe i was just dumb and did not see it :D
Game is fun and cool. Good job!
If you want, you can play my game:
Great music and very very neat and chaotic concept! Took me a moment to get a feel, but once I did it was a great time and a fun game to experience! Love the story and love how it all fits into the theme. Great game!
This is a 5-star everything game for me. Really, I am sooo impressed. The idea is original and perfectly fits the theme. Super polishing. Great music. Great animations. Nice art design. Game design is awesome.
I managed 7 squares, but I plan to improve XD
Really, nice job!
The game takes some practicing of timing the click at the first few round but once I get used to it, it is very satisfying :). Great visual and audio, the catchy music suit so well with chaotic theme and all those interesting narrative is great it is amazing that you can create a story in such short jam time frame.
As for possible upgrade in my opinion, an animated tutorial would be great help for new player for your game.
Awesome game! I liked the whole story that went along with it. It was tough at first but the tips / tutorials were helpful. Great work!
Nicely done - fun to play with some nice effects & sounds. Could have done with a prompt of how to close down the big menu as took me a while to work out what i was doing to shut it but maybe I am just being a n00b :D
Liked that you put a bit of story in with it :)
Love the music, was a little hard to understand to start with, but fun once I did
Fantastic game, it fits the theme and both music and art are amazing, no bugs at all and the concept is definitely something new.
This game is neat! Really like the tune. The gameplay itself is chaotic and fits the theme well! Big thumbs up!
