Fun game! Very enjoyable to keep trying, had almost a speedrunning aspect to it to get a loop done in time, very fun way to incorporate the theme and not make it feel repetitive. Only issue I had was if I pressed multiple inputs at a time or ones very shortly after another (like holding D and then pressing space immediately after), the second input wouldn't register which made me die a lot. Also was fun seeing the chaos of loops running around, especially ones that I died by mistake on. Good job!

Keep improving, you’re doing awesome!

the core idea of the game works, but it kinda devolves it just platforming with a timer very fast

tho i do like imagery of ton of copies of the character running around

You integrated the looping mechanic well, and the vibe of the game is very consistent. For a first game, this is awesome!🍞

love the deisgn of that little guy! Nice intro and starter levels, I did find a few bugs but overall fun game!😺

Not really sure why this is happening (maybe its my monitor being high dpi?), but the game is rendering super small. Zooming in and out in the browser doesn't really help the issue either. If the instructions were added in the description, that'd be nice bandaid solution! I got a few levels in and I enjoyed it! Something to consider for the future would be to add "Coyote Time" to make the platforming a little easier!

Your game introduction sequence was great, establishing some narrative to give the characters and the game just a little more weight. I like how you called out an option for a bonus level, while allowing the player to decide not to go for it and take the normal path.

really fun game. I do also think it wouldve been better to see more iteration on the looping side of things since thats a really unique idea. maybe add coyote time to your platforming as well as it was a struggle to jump on those one block tiles lol. still very fun!

Great effort. The concept is cool, but I wished it leaned more into puzzling with the looped sprites rather than precision platforming (cause I suck at it 😅). I also think a lot could be gained here by implementing some simple coyote time mechanic. The little guy is really cute tho.
