This game is really cool, I love the arcade aspect that you recreated with a filter. For someone who is a retrogaming fan like me, it enchants me and reminds me of good old memories on my Master System! xD
I hope you will be well placed in the Game Jam, congratulations NexTone! = D
it is possible to disable the time machine on the with out the day repeating. also i am looking forward to the next part where you actually try to find the scientist
