Very fun game. Rewind is a bit broken, as well as the walking sound, but I love the aesthetic and the idea. Execution is amazing too - well-thought-out levels. A restart option would be nice, since rewind soft locked me on 2 level.

How does the game fit the theme?
I was inspired by Stranger Things and the idea of two realities existing at the same time. The world doesn’t change, it just reveals a parallel one that’s already there. When you move the mouse you can see that hidden world, and it helps you figure out where the goal is. So you’re kind of exploring two places at once.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I reused some art and base code from older projects and adapted it for this idea. The only external things I used were two sound effects from Freesound community, one for jumping and one for taking damage. Everything else was made by me.
