Nice game! I love the concept in this game.

Cool idea! Managed to complete all the levels. Just a couple nitpicks:

It was a little difficult to figure out what the function of each button was. Sometimes a button would make platforms appear, but it was difficult to know where (especially if it didn't show up on the block cam). Sometimes the button would actually move the block which was really surprising. As a result, I didn't really feel like I was solving puzzles, I was just kind of stumbling into the solutions.

Also, sometimes I would fall into a zone that would reset the level. I wasn't really sure why it happened sometimes and not others.

All that said, I think this was a great concept and I really enjoyed the art as well. It was fun controlling the block with the time-reversal power. Nice work!

Nice work around for the theme! Congrats

The concept is interesting, but the controls are quite hard to take a grasp on. The player character and the block are very slippery, so it's a bit hard to do perform precise jumps.

Great game! The idea and the concept are really unique. I think the levels are a little too hard especially at the beginning. Since you have to get used to the concept, I think a few "tutorial" levels could introduce the idea of time reversal and you can familiarize yourself with it. I think you have to time it correctly in the jump as early as the 2nd level, which is quite tricky. Otherwise keep up the good work :)

Your difficulty curve was too steep for me, but you really nailed the theme and idea :)

Nice work building a puzzle game that fits the theme! I had some issues understanding that the buttons were triggering things to appear elsewhere in the scene, so a sound cue or something to let me know that I was doing something with the buttons would've helped.

Love the character art.

there is supposed to be sound cues for the buttons but for some reason they dont work inside the web build

That explains it! I will download and give it a shot later tonight.
