A well realized game and feels pretty unique with its combination of different mechanics.

This is really fun! I get very confused the more colours that enter the game (v◴-◶)/ I didn't think something would be testing my dexterity today lol

Really fun little game!

I'm not a huge fun of puzzle games but the combination here between not too-difficult puzzles and needing some skill to execute it correctly made me finish it.

I did miss a themesong though, but the sound effects were nice!

I love this game - great art and theme, great levels, very nice intro, great polish, good fun.

It took me a little while to get used to the movement to make the paths more precise to allow others through. But it all makes sense and I like that it allows you to go back and redo, very well done!

Cool concept! After a while you just start recognizing patterns and you get a feel for what the level is telling you to do.

This is probably my only real piece of feedback to this game: It is essentially a puzzle game where you try to untangle paths between similar colored points. But the way it controls is also dependent a bit on your reaction and aiming skills. I think I might have preferred a control scheme where you took a more "turn based" approach to pathing, instead of a real time one.

But maybe that's just me :-) I do think that you have a cool system going. Maybe you could somehow use the rewind mechanic as part of solutions to the puzzles?

Good job in any case. It kept me entertained for a good solid 5 minutes :-)

Thanks for the feedback, we aimed for a game that mix action and puzzle, I wanted a game that had a little bit of Super Meat Boy's flavor if you see what i mean

Really good game! I really enjoyed the balance between skill based gameplay and puzzle solving, and the afterimages concept was a lot of fun to play with
