The game was confusing for me because of the first time played reason. This is well made game, even though I always lose to these puzzles, but I still find this game well done.

Nice, creative, simple, yet challenging.
synchronization is the key and that makes things a bit more harder :D
Great jam entry <3

Chrono DashReally creative game mechanics. It requires a lot of patience and thinking to solve all puzzles (I’m happy that we could unlock 3 and 3 levels at the same time.) The characters you can chose from are cute, and some animation could help elevate the game (I know the time limit was short, so some corners had to be cut). Jumping and moving also feels right.
It took some tries to understand that I had to get all clones into the time machine before spawning a new clone, or completing the level. In turn, I got an “aha”-moment once I understood it, and it became easier to sync all clones by looking at when they started to return to the time machine. I like these “aha”-moments.
I’d love to play it in full screen, and maybe enable music by default (though I appreciate the switch to turn music ON/OFF.)

TokiThanks a lot for your test!
I tried including hints in the first puzzles' texts about the time machine, but indeed it may not have been explicit enough.
The flash game I took for inspiration did let the player figure it out even more than my game.
I noted your suggestion for the music and fullscreen mode and will add them after the votes are complete :)
Maybe the only game in this jam trying to handle ALL the challenges, it's quite impressive :)
Time travel is really mastered here, with very challenging and smart puzzles (too smart for me :D).
Graphics and audio could be a bit fine-tuned, but the game is very well made.
Congrats !

TimEnigmaVery fun and challenging game, really takes “time” theme to the extreme with creating past clones of yourself, paradoxes, and having to get timing perfect in order to finish level.I liked how you’ve managed to build many unique puzzles from the same basic elements (button, platforms, weight platforms etc.) without it becoming too repetitive. The cube mechanics is my favorite, very fun to mess with.

Chrono BlasterNot only I have to clone myself but I also need to take timing and position in to account. This is a really good concept of a puzzle game and the theme was applied greatly. Well done!

Chrono ClashGreat concept. The rewind/timetravel effect reminds me of super meat boy. I wish there were some music and a bit more variation in the sfx. Otherwise, great job!

Chronite CorporationCool concept, the art needs some work, but overall very fun style and concept
