I'm sorry, I didn't have the patience, or more likely skill, to finish the game. I like the rewind thing, it's really fun to watch the replay happen when you die. I wish you did more with it than it just being a death animation, because it's functionally just that. It would be cool if you could rewind time during play to take back a failed jump or something. Also, plz make the dash thing more obvious. You teach us that the stuff on the tables is just decoration, then expect us to find a note on a table that looks like decoration? Make the note dance or something.
It only crashed once, which is better than the other games I've looked at for this game jam, lol. The crash happens during the time rewind, I was mashing buttons during that and for some reason it teleported me to a weird locaiton, then became unresponsive.
Overall a pretty cool platformer with a cool rewind mechanic.
Played it. Failed a jump. Went back. Succeeded. Failed another. Time ran out. Went back to start. Did this 10 more times. Conclusion: I suck at platformers—genuinely fun game.
Could've added more in terms of audio sfx. The platform texture change midway is a little confusing, but it was not a problem.
I loved the rewind mechanic! can i ask how u did that? my first idea for this game was smthn similar, but time looping engineer puzzles? are u making a Path2d on input?
I'm glad you liked the rewind, and I think it's really cool we had similar ideas! As for how I made it, there is a script that has a timer for how often we want the frames to be recorded attached to it. Every time the timer goes off, the script records the current place of the player until the allotted time for the player to run around runs out. Then it just plays back the locations backwards with tweens between them so you aren't teleporting everywhere.
it seems like i cant jump high enough for one of the platforms somewhat early on. Am i just really bad lol? I like the funny music and wizard jumping around its quirky and cool. time rewind mechanic is cool too i havent seen that before. this and combination with limited time to climb the tower is perfect
If it's the jump that I'm thinking of, you should jump up as high as you can and drop down to grab the note on a ledge. Maybe that's a bad explanation. Other than that, I'm glad you liked our game!
I loved playing through this one, because it truly felt like I was controlling
an old wizard failling miserably at climbing that darn tower. The rewinding mechanic was awesome but also a bit confusing at first. A jumping sprite for the wizard would have made the whole thing even better.
Mr. Chubbywhiskers is such a silly old man, haha. Unfortunately for the jump animation, we ran out of time to make it :P. I'm glad you liked playing through our game anyways!
The rewind mechanic was super cool! Loved the little wizard character too, he added a lot of charm
Im glad you liked our rewind and wizard!
It glitched out hilariously a few times. This one was probably the funnest game I played in the jam so far.
Seeing the old wizard fly around at mach 5 and break the game was probably the selling point to me. Even if it wasn't intended, haha.
The simple player controller was nice, it's good to see a game that doesn't just randomly put in all the bougie~ jump mechanics every game think it needs. It added to the charm and art style.
I'm really glad you enjoyed the game! My friend was laughing about the game breaking during the rewind too. I think it would be really funny if I wasn't working on the game. When I see the game break I just panic lol.
I liked the time rewind mechanic , the controls were a little hard. Overall, a fun platformer
I'm glad you liked our rewind mechanic and our game! In retrospect I should've added more controls to the player, it's definitely something I'd do in future games.
Great vibes ahahha, I feel the adventure time vibes, idk why I like this platformer
Thanks, we're really glad you like it. We didn't intentionally go for Adventure Time vibes, but I can kind of see it.
Visuals: Alright
Audio: Meh
Theme: Very cool, I like the rewind feature.
Gameplay: Classic platformer, I like it. You should add the "Coyote Time" feature though, it's essential for platformer games.
Thanks for the feedback! I was thinking of adding coyote time, but we ended up not having enough time for it, since the jam happened during my groupmates' finals week. :P
