In what way does your game fit the theme?
In the game, the player who plays as a necromancer can reproduce the history of the hero's death by guessing different kinds of scenarios and then rewinding the scene.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes! 100%!
We are a team with 2 awesome artist, 1 awesome audio designer and 1 engineer lack of sleep.

Nice Game, enjoyed it alot.
你的游戏很棒呀！我希望将来能看到更多的关卡
It was one of the most innovative I have played in this Jam
謝謝你！我們會繼續努力的！ : D
Sound and presentation was really enjoyable. Theme and gameplay loop were on point. Great work!
Really loved the music, sound design and artwork! Also, interesting idea, though very loosely connected to the theme imho. Would really love to play some more challenging levels, great job :)
Interesting concept with the murder case. The music is fantastic and fits well! With more levels, it could be a full game. Good job.
Thank you so much!
Very good game, really liked it, could be made into a bigger project, good job!
The idea that you have to reproduce what happened is pretty interesting :) The keyboard shortcuts are a bit odd, I, R and space are kind of hard to reach with one hand
Fun game, can see it being a good mobile puzzle game.
I played this one to the end, had me hooked from the start. Such a great take on the rewind theme, supported by clear visuals and audio. I learned how to play very quickly, but the puzzles were good challenges. I would easily play many more levels of this concept, with more traps and ways for the hero to die. If you wanted to think about a change, I never really got the idea--from the game itself--that I was a necromancer. A short cutscene to introduce the game would easily solve that problem. Anyway, awesome work, you should be very proud of your achievement.
I love this. Its such a clever take on the theme!
Thank you, your game is great, too! : )
This game is well-polished.
I love the sound effects and music, makes the game much more immersive to play.
Great job!
Thank you! Our team members really put a lot of effort in sound design, haha!
音效很棒，玩法有趣人物也可愛，讚讚！
謝謝妳的鼓勵!
This is a really cool game. It sort of got stuck at level 3 or 4 i guess.. the one with the scorpion. Other than that there wasnt any problem I noticed. Pretty cool audio and art.
Puzzles are awesome, I would like more content if you are planning on update really loved it.
Thanks, we'll try to do more in the future. :D
Really great audio and art!! Feels like a finished minigame in just one week, one of the more polished ones I've seen in the jam so far! Great mechanics and all around feel! :))
Thank you for your kind words!!!
Incredible! I wish there were more stages though.
I wish I could build more stages as well but we eventually decided to work on tutorials and the whole atmosphere, haha!
Thank you! : )
Gosh! I loved your game so much, very different approach/ I loved the rewind sound!!! amazing!! Deserved rates!
Wow, thanks for your kind words! We put a lot of effort into creating the feel of using magic power, I'm really glad to hear you like that. : D
Thank you all for playing our game!
We noticed sometimes our Hero will not be killed by the scorpion as expected.
(It might be related to the frame rate of the player's computer)
If you run into something weird, feel free to press N key to skip the current stage!
Hope you enjoy our game, here is the walkthrough video. :D
Really interesting idea, and pretty fun to boot!
Thank you so such!!
Is there no ending screen? Kinda stuck at the end of level 3 or 4 I think.. Good puzzles by the way!! Great Job on the concept :)
Thank you for playing!
We noticed that there's a bug occasionally happening on scorpions...
If you feel stuck, just feel free to use the "N" key to jump to the next level. : D
