Great game! Incredible music and dialogues! Attracting art style! Jayjay also impressed me a lot! But I was so careless that I failed to find that hole in the first puzzle. I got stuck there for a while until I found some guide video. Maybe you can offer players a more specific hint to prevent players getting frustrated.
Hi! Thanks for your feedback :)
We are going to continue to work on this game, and we already planned to add an in-game hint system, hope it will help players for this kind of situation!
Wonderful game and if it means anything it reminded me of old HomeStuck and similar media.
Thank you, glad you like it! :)
I don't know HomeStuck, I'll definitively have a look!
Loved the design and the old p'n'click style and the dialogues. The chars are fun (and some of their postures). There's a small story with huge consequences, which is always so with time machines. Great entry!
Thanks for your kind comment, glad you liked it! :)
Outstanding! good visuals and music, well done!
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
The graphics are good. The story is also interesting. Good game
Thank you, glad you liked it! :)
Love the music
Thanks! :)
fantastic artstyle! pixel and jayjay's banter is hilarious
Thank you! Glad you like the alchemy between them! :)
Beautiful game! great look, great puzzles, great music too
Thank you, I'm happy to hear! :)
Nice start for a graphic adventure. And it is something that I would probably do in order to be able to read the end of Game Of Thrones. Very nice style. I would like to play the full game.
Thanks for playing! :) And yes, I could also have done something like that too, I've been waiting the end of the books for decades :D
Old point&click adventure <3 Lovely. Nice game, I hope to see updates soon!!!
Thank you, we hope so too! :)
Incredible visual, sounds and theme. I really enjoyed it and look forward to continuing!
Thank you, glad you liked it! Yes, we'd like to continue this game :)
This is so cool
Thank you! :)
I like it. the time travel adventures are always fun!!
Thank you! :)
Brilliant! I loved the art and the sound. The story was very well written, with cool characters and fun puzzles. The difficulty was perfect and I had a great time with the game. Super nice work! Also, that time portal animation was awesome.
Thank you, I'm very happy to real all of this :)
Glad you like the time portal animation, it's one of the few things I did on the art side :D
Nice one Yann! Loved the time travel concepts, always fun, and Marilou's art is amaaazing!! Really lovely all round :D
Thanks Dave, I really appreciate it. Same, I love time travel concepts, it has been a very long time that I wanted to make one... And here it is :)
I'll share your kind words with Marilou !
That was really great! The art is beautiful and fun (Jay Jay standing on one leg is perfect), and I love a good time loop. You left me wanting more. I definitely need to check out Inspector Waffles!
It seems that we'll do a spin-off with Jay-Jay then :)
Thank you for your kind words, glad to see that you like our game! :)
The art and the sheer amount of detail to objects is spectacular! It made the environment feel so real. I always enjoy a time loop done well and this was definitely done well. A bit short so I hope to see this game continued. The puzzles were logical and I wasn't stuck anywhere except in the beginning.
I know you'd think that only an idiot would forget the two things you have to get in the beginning to fix the machine but I was that idiot. Was a bit distracted then and missed the part where he tells me what to get and then didn't know what to do at all. Maybe making him repeat that line when you click on him or the machine would make it easier.
Once I restarted though everything flowed really well. I also appreciate the outline of important objects - normally I would enjoy exploring everything on my own but with the time limit I think it was a good idea.
Overall, a very polished and enjoyable entry!
Thank you for your long feedback, I appreciate it! Glad you like the look of it :)
Yes, we'll do more signpostings in the future version, you aren't the only one to tell us and it's a valid idea. We'll improve that soon.
Thanks again!
Time well spent playing this game, thank you i really enjoyed it. I love the background art, unfortunately it made it easier to see the items i could collect, Really nice use of the time travel mechanic and a very nice neat story. Well made and polished game.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it :)
Yes, we are going to add a easy/hard mode, and hotspots will be harder to find, I didn't have the time to implement it. Thanks for your feedback! :)
Beautifull!
I love the art style, the time loop mechanic, and the characters are very interesting. And I would love to play more!
Only thing that caught me of guard was intro scene, the dialogue went by relatively quickly, and I didn't get to read everything...
Thank you ! :)
We want to continue the game, so I hope you'll be able to play more of it someday! :)
And that's an interesting feedback, I thought I let enough time for players to read the cutscene story, I guess I was wrong. We'll fix that!
Your dialogue is great and your background art is gorgeous. Using most of the same inventory items in the opening scene and in the time loop sequences was a nice touch. I used to love it in adventure games where inventory pieces would be used multiple times, but here it's done in a way that ties excellently into the time traveling narrative. Very cool!
Thanks for your kind message :)
Yes, thanks to the loops, you can reuse items infinitely, and that's the main feature we wanted to make in this game. Glad you saw that in it! When the game will get bigger, we believe that would be a really cool way to enjoy the game :)
