All 5-er no doubt, love it!
Fun, unique, looks great and plays smoothly. Not too easy aswell, playing around with all the mechanics can take some time. Dev notes were funny. Well done :)

How does your game fit the theme?
Tired of playing games? Try pausing one! This is a puzzle platformer where glitchy menu buttons are the only method of control, and the player is asked to become a pauser.

What a creative idea! Nice take on the theme and great game design in the levels. I've enjoyed a lot trying your game. Congratulations!
The art, sound, and puzzles are super polished. The idea was very creative and the dev notes were just perfect. Too bad they heard about the flying exploit with the restart button though...
I saw you played my game so I had to check out yours and im glad I did. I had a blast playing this. What a great take on the theme. As a level designer myself. I loved the levels here, each added something new, having to mix mechincs in order to solve the puzzles was just the best! nice work lads!
Ngl, you got me in the first half. I thought I was just gonna keep watching and not doing anything. Really nice idea.
your design of playing about control the role is so brilliant! i tried several times to get used to control it and brings me the brand-new experience!+ music is indispensable!
The art style is very good. I love your take on the reversed role!
Loved the humor in the patch notes. Very creative gameplay. Excellent work!
Really creative stuff on display. Really enjoy the patch notes between each level
Incredible. This is absolutely one of the best games I've seen so far in this jam. The art all looks great, the puzzles are well-made, and it feels like a complete game. The progression and pacing was smooth, and a lot of the 'bugs' were things that could feasibly happen in game development.
There were a couple times when I even tried to reset the level because I had failed the puzzle, only to have the game 'reset', which was fun.
I don't have a single bad thing to say, and I can usually find something even if it's just a tiny nitpick.
Thank you so much for leaving such a thoughtful review!! Actually, some of the “bugs” like the reset preserving vertical momentum were things we discovered and then kept in the game. Also, I definitely had those moments of trying to legitimately reset the level, and they always made me laugh. Because you took the time to write this, I want to present you with our concept art for one of our unused characters:

He’s a melancholy potato… I wonder what he would do if he was in the game 👀
I think this will be on the top 20, really cool idea, and very polished. Congratulations!
This is possibly the best game I've played so far in this jam! Everything about it was so charming, from the incredible devnotes to the cute art to the way the music shifts tone to match whether you have the speed boost on or not. The puzzles were also so incredibly fun and satisfying to solve. I hope you make a full release eventually!
One of the best games I’ve played in this jam so far, awesome work! Love the way the mechanics kept changing without becoming frustrating to keep track of, and the humour in the devlog.
Great concept, cute art, top game. it was hard to stop playing. and the puzzel where sometimes abit challenging. And soooo many level, real cool. Great job.
Whoa! This game was so good! The humor was hilarious, the puzzle design was fantastic (I played it 'till the end and stuck through with it even when I was stuck... and I'm not even a fan of puzzle games), the art style and animation felt like a stylistic choice and not simple because it was done in a super short time, wow! This game feels completely fully realized. I think this might be the first 5/5 for everything I've given in this whole jam.
Fantastic job and good luck with the jam results. I think this is a serious contender for top 100. :)
(Definitely following this account in case you make this into a full release...)
