Levels are good. Art isn't that great but I loved the visuals on the time rewind effect.

Very fun and solid, the art is actually pleasant, really just needs more content

I like concept of crab that can turn time back after death. Also, accelerating with water tiles to the speed of light is hilarious.

Good job!

Its a really great concept. The rewind time function both allows you to go left and undo mistakes. I loved the effect when you rewind time. The small animations, speed up tiles and ice was a nice touch. I didn't find any bugs. This game is very solid, I wish there was more content.

much crab, very fast

The art is simple but effective, and the water tiles were fun to zoom on. The time travel mechanic is definitely fun to mess around with, and it makes deaths feel more like a short break to figure out what to do next rather than a frustrating misstep. I was also surprised to see that there was more than one level. I wish there were more enemy types, but as it is right now, it's a fun, short game about a time-traveling crab, and I would love to know more about the crab's epic journey.
