Beautiful game! I really like the bright, sunny environments and the backtrace effects. Really nice platform placement too. I like how the camera stays oriented kinda like a 2.5D platformer so you always have a good idea of where to go next and what platforms are in range.
This is a really great looking platformer with great models, designs, and environments. The backtrack mechanic was easy to understand and use, but made for some neat puzzles. Great work!
Classic platformer energy with a twist.
When I first started to play the game I was thinking: "Its nice, but how does this connects to the theme", until I got the rewind and then I was like: "Oooh, This is so clever!". Very neat idea. The last platform gave me some glicthes tho, but I vould beat it after all. Good job on the game jam.
I really loved the main character! I absolutely love the rewind mechanic and the art for it, felt really nice.
I struggled with it being a locked camera for a 3d platformer and I feel like it would have been more enjoyable if the camera followed my orientation.
Very cute. Feels like a nostalgic PS2 platformer, which is impressive for a jam game!
Super impressive game, especially considering the short development time! If I had to nitpick, the camera angles could use a bit of tweaking in some spots.
Visuals are great, love how the onion skin thing of the player looks, pretty solid overall!

pretty sweet game! sound design is nice and the music is chill :)
yo! this is unbearablyyy from twitch!
although i didnt get thru the whole game and mechanics (and despite struggling on that one part LMAO) it was a great and artistically pretty platformer yall got going on! very much a W game
Would be nice to see how this would extend to a bigger game. Controls are clunky but that's hard to tune on such a short time frame so I won't take too many marks away for that.
Nice game. Coudn't figure out the best way to deal with buttons, lol
Really cool game! The only criticism is that sometimes the camera angle is not the best.
But awesome to be made in such a short time!
Thanks for playing!
