How does your game fit the theme?
Boomerang attacks in a loop, enemy attacks contain loops, rewind/restart mechanism ingrained into the story/setting

A couple UI components and skybox were from external assets. The rest were all made by the team.

Challenging, but enjoyable. I thought the art style was pretty neat and interesting too. Nice job, team!
The boomerang mechanics is interesting, though a pretty tough to aim/shoot and catch. Other than that, love the opening visuals.
Loved the visuals and aesthetic! The timing to grab the boomerang was a bit tough for me though.
love the vibe, diffucult!
Super cool visuals and game design!!
Great game, love the aesthetic
Fun game! Had a good time playing it, really liked the environment. Do you know that your game got played on GMTK stream?
Hi, congrats on a very neat game :)
The art is awesome, I enjoyed it a lot! Grabbing the boomerang was very difficult but I found it interesting.
Question from a very unexperienced jammer: how do you make your WASD binding adapt automatically (it was directly ZQSD for my French keyboard, I imagined you had some sort of code running to adapt it ?)
Thanks for playing! We're using unity's new input system which determines keys by their physical location so can adapt to different keyboards

The difficulty felt just right, not too easy, not too punishing
Approved.
I am addicted to this game
mac build is not working for me :/ visuals and the concept look awesome!
Apologies! I can confirm now the mac build is not running properly so thanks for letting us know. Please stay tuned and we will address this issue post voting period
looking forward to play it! :)
I had this issue with a few unity games.. I'm guessing the game was zipped and unix permissions were stripped. Try this command:
chmod +x ReRun.app/Contents/MacOS/ReRun
Then if it complains about not being able to verify it:
sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine ReRun.app
Thank you for providing this info! Most of us do not have a mac to test/debug so this really helps us understand whats going on!
Thoroughly enjoyed the game all the way to completion. I like the upgrades when you die, but maybe they should be optional? Like, I just want to try again, I don't need any more help right now. I feel the boomerang grabbing could be more forgiving, I was grabbing too early (I think?) like 90% of the time. I had a blast though, there's a great core game here. I can imagine this massive bridge throwing all kinds of obstacles and enemies out you. Nice job!
Honestly this game is really impressive. The visuals are nice and the music is good, it kind has that Ghostrunner vibe. Its well balanced like missing the weapon doesnt totally punish you (i know cuz I suck at grabbing it hahah) Only thing is the sensitivity is pretty low, even when it was full.
Moving around feels very nice, and i like the fact that you don't just aim and shoot, you actually have to account for distance to some degree. I also like the returning shuriken and the catching mechanic as an alternative to parrying, although the timing seems to be more tail-heavy, very often the shuriken would be right in front of me and i would miss the catch, and other times i would press after the shuriken was already gone and i'd get it. I also like how you get upgrades every time you die as a difficulty safety net. The intro cinematic is also really well made.
Thanks for playing and the feedback! Yeah the catch mechanic was implemented and tuned before we got the animations in, so a late catch felt better back then. And after we implemented the animations, we just didn't have time to re-adjust it again ><
I liked your game music, and great job setting an atmosphere with intro. Throwing mechanics feel good. Well done!
Cool Toon Shader
very cool art style and smooth gameplay , good job
Thanks
Nicely designed visual style for this game, I liked the enemies and the cel-shaded borders. I like the catching boomerang element, though it felt a little unresponsive. Well done! I had fun :)
