I greatly enjoyed the game! The only thing I'd change would be to add a camera following the player in the ski section since without it, it feels a little unfair.

Really liked that warioware sort of feel to it, and for the most part everything felt really well calibrated in difficultly, with the exception of the winter minigame, lots of the time the skis would be inaccessible due to where I started. Really fun though, great use of the theme as a theming device and not a game mechanic

This feels like a wario ware game with the silly mini games, really fun.  I liked the flyswatter one.  Altough I did get stuck on the winter one,  trees kept spawning at the top so I had no time to react before hitting one.  Overall a really fun game.

This was lovely. A complete package and fun from start to end. Reminded me of Stardew Valley. I love that game!

i like that this game has multiple games in it. i kinda encountered a bug that the number of flies turn to a negative number.

Absolutely LOVED the art style, and theme of the game ^-^ The characters were cute and the mini games were great!

I thought it was going to be a really simple letter match game and then it spiralled into something else. That was a really cool game, I really liked the animation when it swapped to a different type of game. Great job!

An interesting take on the theme with a variety of game-play. My only suggestion would be to adjust the spawn position of the skis because they are sometimes unreachable unless you wait for the next area.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yea we've noticed that aswell

Fun minigames and central rewinding mechanic, really liked the warping transition between the seasons!

Developer

Groundbreaking? No. Unique? Absolutely. I swatted 133 flies but I think i slapped the dude on the beach at least 200 times.

Developer

Haha, thanks! This comment made me laugh :)

Submitted

Yea I think it bugged because it said flies remaining like - 123 I don't remember how many it said at the start I just hit.

Developer

Weird, can't really recreate that bug. Someone else had that aswell lol. Didnt showup during playtesting haha. Oh well, the dude must be sore now haha

I love this take on rewind, I really like the minigame-style gameplay!

Developer

Thanks a lot!!

This game has a unique take on the rewind, and it has a lot of levels, which is always good.

Developer

Thanks!
