How does your game fit the theme?
This is a game about communicating across time, interactions at different times can be used for progression, with more interactions becoming available after doing prior ones, and that is how the game loops.

Pretty basic but seems to have a good foundation for more mechanics!
Fun idea :) stardew vally with time travel
You have no idea how much I looked at stardew valley for inspiration during this jam lol
Just as you said, there's not a whole lot here at the moment, but that leaves a lot of room for additions and expansion. Like TheFriendlyEnemy said, it would've been nice to know that you interact with things via left click. Additionally, the walls to the left of the doors in the first house lack collision which was a little funny. I noticed that for the first character, their sprite rotation would default to facing upwards. A way that you can fix this is by creating a variable that keeps track of which direction the character is facing and to only update that variable when an input is detected. There's probably a better way, but that's how I do it in my game. It's certainly a shame that you didn't get time to expand on the game more, but you can be proud knowing that what you have is at least playable!
I like the idea!
I see how the concept could be expanded on, but there isn't much here at the moment. One small note - it might be worth including a Controls section in your itch.io description. I found the mailbox but didn't realise left click interacts with it
Thank you for the suggestion, I'll add controls to the description soon!
Cool idea! Lots of things you can do with this concept. Hope you had fun in Rome.
Thank you!
