It is a fun game. Always keeps the player thinking what to do next.
I would make the player movement a little slower, as it was a little hard to control the player very precisely

In what way does your game fit the theme?
I have two features that include REWIND. One is the reversal of enemies of like colors and the second is actually turning time in REWIND for up to 5 seconds to help avoid enemies. (Some enemies are not effected on purpose)
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All code and assets are my own. I have uploaded 3 Audio files that I did not create myself

Congrats on finishing the jam, hope you had a great time.
A couple of things to improve. When I played on my computer, since the resolution was fixed to portrait the lower part of the game was cut, I guess my monitor is smaller than the intended resolution but make sure you can scale it and looks good on any device.
I feel like the characte movement is a bit fast at the end and it takes a while to gain momentum making it a bit difficult to control. I ended up crashing with stuff in the corners just because of that.
I didnt understand what to do the first couple of times I played the game so adding a tutorial or a simple how to play screen at the begining would deffinetly help.
Music is great and the artstyle is simple, colorful but works really well.
Kind regards.

Minority RecordThanks Rem!
I did have a blast on this Jam. It is my second time and I think I am learning so much about Jams and the community that is priceless. Thanks for the input and time put into playing my game. All of your suggestions will be attended to.
The controls will become an option in the settings menu and the tutorial will happen as well. I just didn't have the time during the jam to complete it. I created a whole other scene for it, but didn't complete it in time. Will be added later though.
The screen resolution thing is that way because of how I clamped the boundaries. I tried resizing the window and then the enemies would not spawn outside those boundaries. Pretty easy fix, but because I realized this too late, I just didn't have the time with the Jam time constraints.
Glad you did enjoy my game though. I really do appreciate that.
See you around!
I liked the music and the idea of rewinding the direction of the square based on the color. The color cooldown seemed too short and I would have liked to have the cooldown indicator closer to the player object. That way, I would be able to react to the color changes more quickly. Nice overall completeness of this game, with high score and customizations. Nice work! Please also rate my game. Thank you!
Game is good and fun.Good job!

Corni's Adventure of LifeTakes a moment to get the hang of. The color change did come at illtimed moments some times :D

In the mirror of TimeReally fun game, I liked the music started rewinding when I pressed the rewind button really cool. The control feel a bit slippery for me. Other than the control, everything was really great. Cool game design and every music fitted well in every scene. I enjoyed played the game :D

Rewinder GunReally simple yet amusing game you made there! Sometimes I had the issue with bouncing rectangle with same color which killed me (I guess I had too little time to do so). I'd love to have a feature to see the next color of enemies we can rewind, maybe as some kind of upgrade in shop? It would definitely make game easier, but also more strategic.

The Time BaronVery cool game, I really like the music and the graphics. Well Done !

"The Golem" StoryCool game! I liked the music and the simple artstyle, also the particles when you die and everything explodes. I just think it's too easy, and there should be a little tutorial how to play (which buttons to press) and how to unlock characters.
Other than that, nice game.

Rewind Your LifeThanks Tschlompf! I appreciate the review.
Didn't have time for the tutorial as I have a unique and grand idea how to do it and I couldn't make the deadline.
The game is easy in the beginning, but if you make a few minutes in you will see how it gets progressively harder. I have an enemy multiplier that will increase the amount of random enemies over time.
I still have a lot to do. the unlocks aren't working because I didn't create them yet. I only had a week. I did create the characters though. And same goes with the achievements.
Glad you like it.
Please follow me if you want to get updates and see how this all plays. out.
Thanks again!
