Ranked from 33 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?
The player can rewind to the last position he marked, the character is a Tape and the main idea is to not get reminded more than 3 times.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I only used a library to upload files from the browser: https://github.com/gkngkc/UnityStandaloneFileBrowser

Wow! Really good effort on the assets. You did all that and code your game in a week? Great job!

Could you please play and rate my game as well?

It's a fun and well thought game, I really like that you can switch the background music, and I quite liked the idea of rewinding as a tape. I had a bit of a trouble figuring out how the rewind mechanics work, but once I figured it out, the game was very good

Really awesome game! I love the artwork and being able to choose your own music is a great feature. 

Took me a while to understand where I could save and rewind position, but once I figured it out it was pretty obvious. Maybe adding it to the tutorial would have been good anyway. Also the maze looking level can be beaten just going between the walls sideways. 

But apart from those, I was amazed with this entry and I encourage you to make a full game out of it once the jam is over. I would play it! Well done and keep it up :)

Would really appreciate if you could check out my game and leave a rating, thanks!

Thanks!
I put it on the tutorial, but maybe because of the text was too long I can assume not everybody saw it haha I have to take that to make more interactive tutorials :P
I won't continue with this game, because it was like my first game and my first game jam, I think is finished for the goals I had with it, so I'm moving on to develop other games :)

And your game es awesome! Está demasiado bueno, muy bien hecho :D

Fallo mío entonces, debí de saltarme esa parte jajajaj. Suerte con los próximos juegos en ese caso :) 

Muchas gracias!

Having a hard time figuring out how to use the rewind mechanics. i think the tutorial show a little more on how to use the system! (i was spamming my keys away till i found a way out) other than that the game has great art great music! good job :)

The Good:

  • Artstyle and sound - the art was really cute and the fact that you control a cassette and can change music really added to the theme
  • Level selection - it was cool to be able to enter any level, especially since this is a game jam game. Let's you experiment and go back to find different solutions. I do recommend making the player complete the level first before they can choose it, but it's not a big deal
  • Cool concept - the game was fairly innovative with its concept of recording and rewinding positions and suited the theme well.

Could Improve:

  • Unnecessary features - the timer and falling pencils were unnecessary in my opinion. I think in puzzle games you should try to avoid timers to let the player think about the problem and not rush their actions. As for the pencils, it was unclear where and when they would drop, and often just led me into restarting the level so I can utilise all of my rewinds. I suggest making a permanent obstacle that the player can always see and knows to avoid 
  • Level 7 - it was buggy and i was able to walk towards the exit without using any ability
  • Clarity - I was unsure where I could record and where I could rewind. Took me a little while to figure it out. Perhaps make it clearer by making the boxes colourful or have symbols on them

Overall:

Fun and well thought out game. The puzzles were challenging and entertaining. The art suited the theme, and the rewind mechanic was ingrained into the gameplay as the player needed to use it a lot to complete the game. Well done!

OMG, what a great review! Thank you very much :3 I'll have in account everything you said to improve and obviously get better con the good things! Thank you very much!! :D

The idea is very creative. That I could play my own songs surprised me and I loved that surprise! 

There is only one thing: sometimes the controls don´t react properly. This makes it very hard to play.

Very catchy thinking music and also nice mechanically- good work here! Adding a tutorial was a nice plus!

Submitted(+1)

I really liked the graphics, tutorial, the idea of the game, and music. Good job!

Submitted(+1)

The webGL was a little slow for me, but i the graphics were great and so was the music. The small portion of gamplay i experienced was fun too

Submitted(+1)

Very nice and chilly game but sometimes the controls are abit unresponsive but still,

Good job!

Submitted(+1)

The theme and the visuals are great! The only point that I have is to polish the rewind mechanic. It was a cool experience!

Great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! Yeah, I think it was very simple

Submitted(+1)

I understand haha the theme was kinda hard this time~

If you have time, check our game too! 

Have a great night, mate

Submitted(+1)

I liked the game, but the only thing I think you could fix was the rewind, because sometimes I couldn't rewind and it's more like teleporting back than rewinding back.  Otherwise, great job!

Developer(+1)

Yeah, that's kind of the idea, I didn't wanna use the rewind as "take me all the steps back to where I was" but more about "take me to where I was" e.e

Submitted(+1)

The graphics and the music made the most of the game for me, they are lovely. The rewind mechanic and the puzzles are fun too. Good job!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the game :3

Submitted(+1)

I love the graphics and music for this game, everything looks and feels great together, the concept for the theme is also really cool, despite a lot of other games with the same cassette tapes idea, this is one of the ones that i really enjoyed and had its own charm

Developer

Thank you very much! :D I put so much effort on learning voxel art on this jam and tried to implement that here :3

Submitted(+1)

Cool game, nice music, the z button and x button was not working but i like the idea!

Developer

Thanks, did you tried to use the X button on the light boxes and the Z on the dark boxes?

Submitted

No i didnt i will try that thanks

Submitted(+1)

I liked it, but I couldn't pass the first level, controls are buggy (Z doesn't respond) or probably I am doing something wrong. Being able to upload own music is a great idea!

Developer(+1)

Did you try to press Z on the dark brown boxes before the ghost time ends? :P Thank you!

Submitted

I'll try! Thanks!

Submitted(+1)

I love the cassette tape guy. Couldn't even get passed the first level lol, Z didn't do anything for me.

Developer

Hi! Did you try to stand on the dark boxes when you use the Z? Thanks for passing by!

Submitted(+1)

I really enjoyed playing your game! The story is unique and the feature to load your own files is pretty cool! Did you do all the 3D art too? Excelente trabajo. 

Este es el juego que hicimos nosotros, yo hice la música también:
