I really liked the art and found the theme quite funny, though I thought it could have used a little more visability (had the camera a little further out so to speak). I also kept finding the enemies would follow me to the point that they'd run off the ledges and be standing on my head. I also didn't really see the rewind theme? Its pretty cool though, well done!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
Joel has to rewind time (Walk backwards through the levels) and get the ingredients for his
sandwich
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes all of the code was owned by me. Some assets were reused from other projects.

Art and controls are good, but enemies' speed + the camera's zoom makes it extremely hard to play.
There's also a bug when you complete a level... you can still move and die. Happened to me on the first level. XD

Astro: The Time DefenderThe art and assets in general look very well made, I think it's a very good strong point to have.
However the game feels off in game play. The enemies go at the same speed as you and there's a bug where they won't get off of your head making it almost impossible to take damage or kill them, the camera is too skewed to the left making it hard to see what's coming up in the level, other then that I think the game can improve with time and effort and I hope to see more of your work in the future.

Timer DungeoneerLOVED THIS GAME! It was super fun and I enjoyed the art! I kept jumping on top of toast dudes and rode them throughout the level, and the last level was hilariously awesome! Just played it on my stream and my viewers also loved it. Superb work!

Rewind RaceNice game! I love the silly art style and the crazy particle effects! Not bad for your first itch upload

Back to the BasicsThe game looks really cool! Nice job on the blood splatters as well.
The jumping does feels a bit floaty though. You should probably increase the gravity. I usually start with 20 and sometimes even go up from there.
The camera is also really close. For the big jump in the level, I can't even see what I'm jumping over.
Also, I couldn't figure out how to rewind time. You should probably add an explanation of the controls to the description of your game.
I'd really appreciate it if you would have a look at my game as well, and be sure to download the smaller version :D

Me, Myself & INice game, and congrats on your first game jam (my first as well). I enjoyed how you can stand on top of enemies (it led to some interesting moments with stacking the enemies on top of each other as platforms). I think if you zoomed the camera out a bit more so you can see more of the level it would make a lot of the gameplay much smoother.

Course CorrectionI liked the look but I wish the camera was a biiit more zoomed out. Overall, platforming around was still a lot of fun and I enjoyed trying to stack as many bread people together as I could to stand upon a tower of plenty.

Knight of TheseusFun shooter, loved the characters eyes when he jumped lol. could have been a little less floaty.

Animal JumpFirst of all good job and congrats for you first game jam! Here some things I would change that should not require a lot of time and could improve the game:
- Increase falling speed of the character
- Add some background music
- Zoom out camera
- Keep shooting if you have the key pressed.
The art of the characters was fun!

Galacticus, the time cheaterGreat game! Love the art, only feedback I would give is it would have been better to have a more zoomed out camera, other than that good job!
