How does your game fit the theme?
You play as an ethereal spirit that can rewind time and create new time loops which re-enacts all of the past whilst you play aslong it (playing in your own time loop)

Nice use of the loop mechanic. Reminds of bloodthief by Blargis
Hahah thank you!
Kinda reminds me of the game Bloodthief (I only player the demo), but with a loop mechanic, it feels like a speedrun puzzle game, havent seen these in this game jam before. I really like the art style, sounds and movement system, the jump has a bit weird timing, but after some time you get it.
Well done!
Thank you so much for playing!
oh man. I really need to see this in steam. just shut up and take my money
Hahha thank you
At first, it was hell, I couldn't figure out how to control the character at all, I constantly flew off the walls, crashed and lost speed. Then it dawned on me that you can jump up on the run and make a slide, and it greatly boosts your speed. And I also killed the boss once because of a bug, I flew up into the sky, landed on the eye and smashed it standing right on it :)
Red sky and big watching eye looks so cool!
Hahha yeah explaining through text is really hard; also the level design is very rookie of me (first game jam and all)
But thanks heaps, and yeah you can manage to land on him you can actually just kill him which is kinda funny.
The design is trying to juggle a lot and the slippery physics don't help. There is a nice experience here that's definitely fit for speedrunning types and very perseverant folks who would be willing to deal with that combat. I don't want to be too down as there is fun to be had here, it's just the constant restarting really got on my nerves - especially with the player-hostile message on the screen. This was a very good use of these sorts of assets that could be refined into something smoother to play.
I 100% agree, its why I left the cheeky "being able to rewind whilst in death screen" mechanic so you can cheat death but I forgot to add it to the death screen message.
Rewinding in a momentum game kinda breaks the flow and makes it harder to play, and yeah dying happens alot its why its a shortish game unless you rewind death.
Thanks for the feedback, and thanks for playing!
This was a very fun idea! I love the gothic/gory aesthetic. The movement felt almost a bit too much, once I started sliding down the hill I lost control very quickly and clipped through the gate. I wish more of the level leaned into the freedom provided by good movement, particularly early. The rewinding was a very cool take on the "past clones" mechanic that played so smoothly with this type of game.
I also made a first-person movement-based game, would be very keen to hear your feedback :)
Yeah, I wish I had the farsight as my first gamejam I kinda "thought too much" with lack of game design, I was trying hard to get mechanics out versus polishing what was there. Thanks for playing though!
This was a decent game! The momentum movement is always a fun concept in games, the onlt thing was perhaps the camera sensitivity? it felt really stiff so it kinda made it really hard to turn, besides that though it was generally quite fun!
Yeah I should of added some kind of settings, the menus were last minute, thanks for playing though!
Feels so prince of Persia: sand of time with an actual rewind all wall run/jump. A pretty neat game though some parts are so tight XD
Thanks for playing!
Loved the movement handling!
Thanks for playing!!
This game was a fun concept on the theme loop.
Thanks for playing!
pretty solid, felt like the rewind maybe clashed a bit with the flow of the movement but overall very well down and a great vibe!
Yeah it does kind of break it a little bit, thanks for playing!
Great game! The mechanic reminded me of the time saga of the Prince of Persia series, but with new implementations for the mechanic of time rewinding.
My only criticism is that the difficulty curve is a little too steep haha
But an awesome entry nonetheless, congrats :)
Thanks for playing!
Nice game, love the csgo style movements. A little buggy tough.
Yeah there's a few issues, but hey, first game jam! Thanks for playing
Yooo, zoomies!!!! This was so fun and super creative! Really impressed with the execution of the time reversal
Haha thank you! It ruined me for 3 days mechanic was challenging
very cute game i love the momentum you feel
Thank you for playing! It's my favourite part.
i almost forgot to review and rate cause i was busy play this game too addictive
Thanks for playing and reviewing!
Yeah even during testing sometimes you can manage to go so fast you just fly away! Thanks for playing! I am genuinely thinking of fleshing out the game and turning into something.
Very cool! the difficulty curve of the parkour part was too steep, and the hitting yourself thing I found to be inconsistent, but other than that the game was great! hitting enemies was satisfying, and zooming around by slide jumping was so much fun at the end.
I did encounter a bug where I got stuck dying over and over in the eye's laser, where I spammed the rewind button and couldn't rewind far enough back to revive. Either that or it simply took too long.
Well done!
Yeah, it checkpoints you in certain parts to prevent game from breaking during a rewind but... your right, the first part is quite a learning curve and even the boss fight can be tricky, some people don't know you can rewind in the death menu (due to it being an easter egg).
Thanks though! For my first game jam I think it went well, hopefully I can polish it and create something cooler later.
I love the concept! Very unique mechanics, and I would LOVE to see some speedruns of this :) I don't like that you get completely reset when you die at the boss, but other than that great game!
Thank you! (hidden mechanic, rewind whilst dead)
Super polished game for a 4 day jam, 3D games take very long time but you still have a fun gameplay experience. Nice job!
Thank you!
