Nice implementation of the theme, I like the game and music.. you did a great job.. 

My game is a casual game if you wanna rate is https://misterm.itch.io/mixtape-match , Thanks

The game feels polished and is great fun to play! But sometimes the rewinding led to some weird situations and the bomb went completely off its path

One of the best and well polished of the Jam. I really liked the concept and the mechanics were very cool. I really enjoyed the game. The controls and the decision to make it 0.5s was very good. Overall, I really liked the game.

Could you please take the time to rate my game too? It would mean a lot to me if you rated my game.

Rated! I recognize the song, it's "What shall we do with the drunken sailor", right? It fits quite well.

Submitted

Really great game. and well executed game

Submitted

WOW. That was an awesome game. I really like the pirate theme and the need to think outside the box. I couldn't get past level 6. I think that this is gonna be a good one.

Submitted

Nice game! I suggest you make a mini sec timer as well. it hard to figure out when the bomb is going to explode :)

Submitted

Great game! Love the audio and the pixel art! 

Submitted

I really enjoyed the game.

For a game jam, it is very well polished.

Good job !!!

Nice concept! I like how it's a lot more different than other games in this jam! The graphics and music were also good. Rewinding the bombs sometimes felt a bit weird, and a little unresponsive at times. It might be good to have the bomb rewind, but have it so it doesn't move forward again (the bomb stops in place after rewinding). I think it would make the game a bit cleaner, but I'm not sure if any levels would break.

Anyway, great job and entry! If you want, could you rate my game? A rating would be appreciated!

The art is much pleasing and love how it comes together with audio, loved the idea of the game. Keep going

Submitted

This is awesome. I love the idea and puzzles are very well designed. The bomb is quite buggy in some points, like when you rewind towards a sailor that had punched the bomb, and he starts punching it in loop or something like that.
If you fix that and add more levels, I could definetely see this as a standalone game on Steam.
Well done!

Fun! 

- The graphics and audio are spot on! 

- The puzzles are clever

- I find the timing quite hard. I would prefer a larger damage radius on the bombs. I only made it as far as level 3 but then skipped ahead to see what else you came up with. 

-I would also like a way of quickly resetting the bomb instead of waiting for it to explode. 

Submitted

Thought the game was put well together. The art was cute. Good overall entry.

Could you please play and rate my game too?

The game was fun!!The puzzles were intriguing!!

Submitted

Your game was great! It was really fun, I enjoyed the puzzles, and the music was perfect!

I like the music and the mechanic, it fits the theme nicely while also being quite innovative. However I think the control for throwing the bomb should be something like a mouse button rather than shift.

Submitted

The mechanic can be tricky to figure out, but the game develops well with it (outside of some janky bomb physics). Great aesthetic, fluid controls. Good game!
