An interesting concept. Although I did find that overall the puzzle design left a bit to be desired. They were quite easy. Unique idea though :)

Aliens Attack? Again!LOL, the last level!
Style reminds be of playing on my good old Atari 2600 with the switch box between antenna and console not quite all the way to the console!

Doomed RaidersShort and sweet, with fun puzzles. Not to hard, but not trivial either. The extra levels were also fun!
Loved the rewinding VHS effect and really appreciated watching “my” amazing shelf-stocking skills in the replay after finishing. The music added a lot and the pixel retro definitely-not-Blockbuster aesthetic was a very nice touch.
The only thing I think would add to the game right now is a stronger indicator of which way the tape will fly out. I figured it out eventually (and maybe I’m just slow, lol) but I kept expecting the tape to fly out to the left of the top right shelf on level 3.

UnderAchieverGreat visuals and sound. The puzzles were fun, but not too challenging. Great job!

The Final FrontierGreat game! If you have more time to develop this game, it be great if there was a indicator of where the tapes are going, or some versions of the tapes that functioned differently, to add some variety.

A Game In ProgressI really like the CRT effect. And an interesting idea with the music that plays the notes in reverse.

GMTK2023 - Medieval Tower OffenseInteressting concept and nice puzzler - although I don't know if the game would work differntly in normal time...

Plat FormerReally fun game! Enjoyed it a lot, especially the more advanced levels. Only wish that the shelves would show what direction the tapes would fire from tho. Other than that this was a very solid submission, good job!

Squared AwayHey, didn't get a chance to play your game bc of Godot 4 not letting Mac users play web builds :(
Our team ran into the same issue, and we were testing on Mac, so we thought it didn't work at all and didn't push a web build. You might want to put a little disclaimer on the game page for Mac users!
Good luck with the jam! Your game looks really interesting.

I Am A Superstar!Fun puzzle game. Not too hard, even the advanced levels were pretty easy, but I wasn't looking for a challenging experience so I really enjoyed my time. I was a fan of the VHS effects and the simple graphics fit well. I will say that it is hard at first to tell in which direction the VHS tapes will fly from just the shelf sprites. I caught on quickly, but the sprites look similar when rotated so it took me a second.

Input ReceivedA simple puzzle game, even at advanced levels can be easily solved, however, I like it a lot.
Solving easy puzzles while addicting BGM looping, it's a relaxing leisure experience, would like to play it more if the developer continues to develop it after the jam.

RPGMAKER MakerThe rewind feeling was really well-made. Could really see it as a standalone game with more polished levels. Good job!

ReversedPlatformerOk, this is actually pretty good! I really enjoyed by... uhm... by throwing cassettes? Btw, I still like arts, music and of course concept! Great work, dudes!
