Ranked from 26 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

In what way does your game fit the theme?
Firstly, 'rewind' is a word that can be associated with going back or undo something. Keeping that in mind, the players are devoid of the 'power of going back.' That is, a player can move forward, left, right, and can even rotate along its axis, but cannot move backward. It makes the simple aim of collecting the red boxes into a challenging one because now you must think strategically. Secondly, if the player reaches a situation where there is no other way of completing the level without going back, then the player must make the big call, that is, rewinding to the start. 'Rewind' in this game can be considered as a boon as well as a bane.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I wrote the complete code from scratch and made most of the assets by myself.

awesome music! Good job!

Submitted

I liked your game a lot. Started as a simple mechanic that soon had me hooked trying to get the box on top of the plank. 

Adding some sound effects would be nice, same as adding some kind of new mechanics as you progress into the game. Still I really enjoyed playing it. 

Definitely a good rating, keep it up! Would be so nice if you could rate my level too :)

Thanks for playing! :-)

Nice game. That's a unique take on the theme. Loved the music, it adds to the relaxing atmoshpere of the game

Developer

Thanks :-)

This was a really creative idea! It was really satisfying to rotate the door (or whatever I was controlling). But, I wish you had drawn more attention to what I'll call the "rules" of the level (the text in the corner), because it took me a little bit to figure out that it was there. Also, you said you are going to continue this after the jam, so to make this even better, add some sound effects for a win, a loss, and add some scene transitions in there, and of course more levels, and you have a fun little game someone would spend money on. Saying that, as you go through a bigger game, just doing the same things over and over is boring, so try and introduce some more mechanics, and create levels that aren't just flat (maybe take advantage of the y axis more). Good luck with this! I look forward to seeing it finished

Thanks for the honest review. I will surely look into the points mentioned by you.

My favorite thing about your game was the music! The game itself is quite fun but also very difficult. Keep up the good work!

I would love it if you checked out my game

Developer

Nice, longest I've played a game from the jam. Awesome! I managed to fail and pass a level at the same time but it didn't break the game.

Nice game! I feels especially nice when you finally complete the level after many tries!

Amazing game, amazing concept. i just hate it that i cant go backward when i went to far. Otherwise, good job.

I really enjoyed your game but i must admit that the 'No-S/Backwards'-thing made it really hard.
Btw, is it possible to change the physics so not everything is flying in slow-mo? Not a really necessary thing but i think that would give the game more realism.

To conclude: it is a good and funny game.

Liked it! really enjoy the artstyle and the screen when you lose/win.


why this cancer-cure-research-spot-music?

The music was epic. Rated. Physics game can be very challenge to pull off but you made it simple enough to not be frustrating

Submitted(+1)

I'm not really a fan of physics centered games, but this one is pretty straight forward and enjoyable, and with this music and style, it's even kinda of relaxing.

Submitted

Loved the clean design, the music was great.

Had a great time playing, thank you!

Developer

Thank you!

Very interesting mechanics and cool atmosphere! Well Done!

Developer

Thanks for playing.

I really like the atmospheric music and the clean and pretty graphics. the physics mechanic was a cool idea, trying to get the box on the door.  This idea is clever, you should keep working on it!  Great job submitting to the jam, and I hope you learned a lot of new things!  If you have time, please check out my entry :D

Developer

Thanks for your review. I will surely check out your game..
