Nice. Gotta love a Pico-8 game! The art style was great! 

I personally wanted a little less cooldown time for the bullet, but other than that, loved it!

Very cool! Love the arcade-game art style!

The laser seems kinda op, compared to the regular shooting... Would love to see more content added!

I really enjoyed the style and art for this game. It has some nice sound effects, and the rewind mechanic with the laser felt satisfying, great job!

Didn't expect a pico-8 game in this jam! Excellent work, it really feels nice to destroy a lot of enemies in a single laser shot, the music and graphics are great aswell!

If I had a rewind button in Galaga proper, I'd have had a much happier childhood. Lmao, really cool concept- lots of potential here. The spacial rewind being tied to the special beam button was kinda jarring at first, but once you get it down it works great. I also assumed I could crash into the planet due to the brightness. But yeah- nicely done!

Such beautiful retro style executed in this game, really well done :D I like the feature of the shadow showing where you are going to rewind. Well done. Hope you try mine too https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/722968

Really unique use of the rewind mechanic. I also really enjoyed the feel of the laser whenever it hit someone the little pause and screen shake is a nice touch.

Nice aesthetics, and I like that you tied the rewind mechanic to an offensive mechanic. Blowing up the enemies with the laser is pretty satisfying.

Making the rewind feature a super weapon of sorts is a pretty cool idea compared to how it usually works in these types of shooters

I really liked the feel and the looks of the game, it's also worth noting the double-design of the rewind mechanic both for offensive and defensive strategies.

Overall a really nice game, but in my opinion, to make the rewind mechanic a bit more effective, the enemies bullets should have been slower, so that they would have been easier to dodge while rewinding (but maybe it's just me being bad. Great job overall!

Awesome retro game! It was fun playing it. I like the player shadow effect that shows where you will rewind to.  The sprite art and effects are cool! If you like this idea, keep working on it! Awesome job submitting a clever game to this jam and I hope you improved your game making skills. If you have time, please check out my game :D
