In what way does your game fit the theme?
When you die, the game rewinds 2 seconds and you have a chance to save yourself by killing the enemy that killed you.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, I wrote all the code (using p5.js for animation) and the music (with Bosca Ceoil). Got the sound effects from sfxr.

Really cool game! Really loving the mechanic!
Nice game, innovative in the way of using the mechanics with a solid implementation in all senses.
Great game! The mechanics are rather interesting. The graphics and audio are good.
Really fun game, reminds me a lot of the Geometry Wars game series from back in the day. I liked the rewind mechanic a lot, great job!
The idea of killing the enemy that killed your past self is so cool! Nice game!
Fun game with a very interesting twist on the genre, good stuff!
This is really awesome! Definitely a 5 star game for me for the saving your past self mechanic alone!
nice story telling game.......cheak mine
I love the rewind effect. Though I'd get lost once I saw two ships, as to which one was myself, in the heat of the moment. Love the difficulty setting as well.
That was really good! Very unique concept of including a ghost during your rewind! Forces you to not only simply survive, but pay attention to everything happening at all times so you can save yourself! Had a lot of fun and was very addicting. Awesome job!
Exceptionally good! I liked the core rewind idea a lot, and everything else about the game is perfect. Awesome job!
Btw try my game - it’s a shooter as well :)
I liked the cholor scheme! So vivid! Is nice how the elements move fluid!
I rated this game 5 stars in every category, you deserved every one of them. The artstyle is amazing, the game is so fun to play, the audio is so well designed. If you polished up the enemy spawnings I think you could release this on steam for a few bucks. Amazing job! Best jam game I've played so far.
I like the polish of the game, even though the art style is not complex. Everything seems to mesh well in your game, so big props to you!
The colour choice for the UI and all the elements of this game is SO GOOD.
Having such clean UI is such a good thing in my eyes. On top of that, the game itself is pretty fun!
Cool concept and fun gameplay. The only advice I have is to make the tutorial skippable.
Thanks for the comment! You can click the difficulty button to play at other difficulties without having to go through the tutorial.
This is amazing, fantastic ideas right here, and the music muffles when your not playing, oh its like taking a bite of a fantastic dish.
Great game! Super fun!
Really fun and I really loved the mechanic that you have to save your past self when you rewind instead of just having a rewind.
Quite fun and matches the theme quite well, sounds are a bit on the loud side but that's normal :D
Thanks for the comment! Yeah once I played some other games and compared volumes I realised I should probably have added a volume slider haha
