In what way does your game fit the theme?
Unwind the tether to get the treasure at the bottom of the well, then rewind quickly as the native inhabitants attempt to stop you escaping!
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, everything except the audio (which is properly licensed).

Very very cool
Really awesome way to use the Rewind them. Thoroughly enjoyed the humor and polish. Great work!
Unique and innovative take on the 'rewind' theme. While I've seen a lot of games using a rope for this jam, this was definitely the most interesting (and probably complex) implementation.
I did find the physics to be a little frustrating but I understand that one week is definitely not enough to get that feeling right.
The presentation, while simple, worked very well.
Looks to be inspired by Downwell which itself is a great game.
Great work overall!
Really great game! Very fun and unique mechanic
The game is really fun! I like it!
Great game and very funny mechanics! Loved the breaking of the fourth wall) Art style reminded me of Downwell. Wonderful! One of the best games I've played during the jam
Very enjoyable game, and a unique take on the theme! The mechanics were interesting to play with, though I did have a bit of difficulty figuring out how to control my character enough to get onto the ledge at the start of the last level. Overall a great game, I would be interested to see more of it!
The combination of the graphics and the sound is great. The level design also was in point. I was a little bit confused in the beggining about how I control the movement.
Fantastic work! Wanna see more of your games!
The graphics and the sound are awesome. But the controls are very hard.
The art with the limited palette is Top tier, the sound is amazing ,the design is amazing, and the mechanic itself is a great idea but it seems lacking or a bit off . I think it seemed a bit too clunky to get out unscathed or to truly avoid an enemy.
One of the better games from this jam, feels like an actual “game”. Good graphics, good sound, funny dialogue
Game Design: 5/5 on point
Fun: 4/5
Innovation: 5/5
Theme: 4/5
Graphics: 5/5
Audio: 5/5
Very good, probably one of the best I have played these days. Good graphics and an interesting Gameplay. Well done!
