This was really fun. The introductions of new mechanics were well done and I liked the fast-paced aiming + running through a lot of the levels. Polish is there, sound effects work well, and the visual style, though simplistic, does its job well and remains cohesive.
My only criticism is that the time limit didn't seem as justified in the more puzzle-focused stages. A few, as simple as they were, really wanted me to stay still and survey the area before continuing forward. (Maybe you could have a bomb item or something specifically for fast-paced sections?)
Totally agree. Would love to have a medal system similar to Neon White's. Allow players to complete the level at their own pace, but then allow them to come back and solve it faster to achieve a higher medal.
Really cool concept, very imaginative, easy to understand quickly and great art style, Great game!
Incredibly well done! Feels like a fully fletched game.
For my taste it could be a little harder/trickier. It gets easy and stale very quickly, which gets broken up by new mechanics, but isn't a full fix for me. Either line ups/ timings could be more difficult, with moving objects for example (cars with bullets stuck in them driving past, needing to time the shots) or with more difficult puzzle moments. Just throwing out random suggestions into a void, in case you ever feel like working on this and could use this feedback. Incredibly good submission!
Cheers
Suppeerr polished and realllyy addicting. One of my favs in this jam. Good job!!
great game，nice to play
I loved the feel of the game, it made moving through the levels really satisfying! An optional timer for speedrunning would be perfect
Thanks a lot, we did want a speed running option, and reduce dependence on the timer that's in there now. But time limitations means we couldn't get around to it.
Stylish, simple, and fun--the use of mouse position for direction along with the timer puts solid pressure on the puzzle and keeps the game pace up. I also loved the screenshake. Incredible job!

Cool concept~
Clever idea, nicely designed levels and smooth introduction to mechanics,
Good visuals and overall feel. NICE!
❤️
This game is great with a unique idea, nice polish, good mechanics, and good puzzles. I found it really enjoyable.
Really fun, I love the visuals and the level design ! Nice job !
If the sound effects were a bit less grading the presentation would be top of the pile, and there were a couple levels in there that seemed like a tutorial for something that already happened - outside that super nice concept, very good execution!
The presentation is perfect, really enjoyed the colours and the art style matches with the game. The gameplay is very satisfying and well done, it has all the juices as well. Great job!
Cool twist that fits the theme! Took a moment to figure out what was going on, but then I got how the puzzle works.
Not sure how I feel about the revived people blocking your path (if intended). It may be an issue of being different from how I expected the interaction to happen, but if there were a description saying revived people block your path, I don't think it would be much of an issue. More just another layer of the puzzle.
Good feedback, yeah we did want it to be intentional, but I think I didn't make enough levels around it to take advantage of it. Glad you liked it however :)
Really awesome and fun game love the concept and its really well polished
This is a piece of art! Incredibly polished, fun to play, great looking! The best game I've seen so far!
POSSIBLE GAME JAM WINNER!!!
not really a fan of the timer. it would be nice if the timer was only on non puzzle levels.
This is the best one so far. The level of polish, the fun, the gameplay mechanics — it's all a commercial game quality. I'd love to see this developed into a full project so I could play it on my switch next year! Fantastic achievement!
