In what way does your game fit the theme?
The game revolves around moving through a maze. When you end up in a dead end, you'll need to rewind to try out other paths.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
The audio is from the public domain. Everything else is all done by me.

Really relaxing game ! I've liked the concept and the randomly generated levels idea.

Congrats !

Very relaxing game with nice colors and controls that are easy to learn. The turning does feel a little weird, and I think a zen mode where the player is unable to lose would be a nice touch for this game. Overall, well done!

Submitted

Wooaaah at first I liked the game but once I saw the rewind option I LOVED it!! Honestly if you make continue developing this a little more you've got yourself an addicting mobile game!

Submitted

Great game!!!

This could definitely be a mobile game!  It would be so nice, you could press and hold to steer and release to rewind!  It's like this game was made for mobile!  That aside, the music choice is very relaxing and the gameplay is pretty addicting!

Developer(+1)

I developed a mobile version where you had to press and hold to steer as you suggested, but to rewind you had to press with multiple fingers (so that you'd just go on in a straight line if you release all fingers), but your idea is much simpler and more intuitive! That I didn't think of that haha! I've just changed the mobile version, using your controls. Yet still have to think where to release it (google play or itch really). Anyway, thanks a lot!

No problem!  It was just something I thought of now haha.

Congratulations! Beautiful work.
The simplicity and visual cleanliness of your game conveys calm.
Everything works in perfect harmony.

This was great and very easy to get lost in but there are a few different things that made it a bit difficult to use the rewind mechanic effectively, like the ball being super close to the bottom of the screen when going forward or backward. ovrall Great job!

How can a game be so simple yet good.

The mechanics and level design blend perfectly with each other.

This can be a great mobile hyper casual game.

I hope you have plans to expand this further.
