Ranked from 100 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?
You play as a cassette tape and you leave a tape trail as you move. You can rewind the tape which moves you back to where you were previously, while destroying enemies in your path. Plus the graphics and sound effects help rewind you back to the 80's.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code myself and made most assets from scratch. I did not make the music, fonts or most of the sound effects, but they are all licensed for commercial use. All the attributions are on the game's page. Every other asset was made by me.

Can't stop playing! Amazing game! Very retro. For a few minutes I forgot we're in 2020 and went back to 1988 (when i started to listen to music)
But not only the music is great. The gameplay is very addictive! And the mechanic about rewinding the cassette to destroy the enemies. Man, seriously. By far one of the best games I played in the Jam.
CONGRATULATIONS!

The retro feel it has is amazing! I love the music, good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Glad you liked it.

The music is soooooo good. I liked how each level not only had its own bop, but its own shooting and enemy patterns. The gameplay is solid, and I'd play more if there was more. I do wish the difficulty scaled or was higher in general. I played for a good while, but never did I accidentally die.

Developer

Thank you for the great feedback! Difficulty changes will be included in the post jam update, along with new levels!
