In what way does your game fit the theme?
You are a Human from 2128 and the world is at the edge of destruction. You want to save it so you use your ability to rewind time and go back in time to warn the people of the future disaster. Time travelling is a success but you lose your memories and due to your distinct appearance, people of the present times are suspicious of you thus you end up getting caught. You wake up at a strange place and some strange things are happening to you.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
We wrote all the code by ourselves.

good game bro
lmao you did it
I like the game.
Well, thanks for playing! :D
Fun game, though I didn't really liked that idea of "try to find good solution by mistakes if you don't start from the beggining", maybe I was missing something or just didn't get your clues, I dont know. Nonetheless artstyle was very good and audio too. I liked those cutscenes and backstory. Also jump wasn't working properly and character was jumping with a little delay, probably because I was playing on webGL I know it can casue a lot of physic problems. Nonetheless I enjoyed it good entry for the jam!
Thanks so much for your honest reply and we are glad you still liked it :D
Cool idea! Good job!
Thanks!
This game was just incredible! Really cool and unique idea, I like the way where you have to die and rewind time in order to progress. The visuals where awesome, I loved the comic styled cutscenes, the audio was really good. Overall a very incredible game!
We are really glad you liked it! Thanks so much for playing :D
nice lighting and art style, died a lot. Cool mecanics
Basically you NEED to die often so you can go further. Its basically the game mechanic. Thanks for playing ! :D
I love the lighting and story/cutscenes, nice game!
Thanks so much! :D
Nice visuals and mood, loved the comic cutscenes!
thanks so much!
Nice. I like the dialogue and the lighting! I wasnt able to get all cutscenes, perhaps a continue button? thanks for this!
I will leave you mine if you want to test play, thanks a lot! https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/724798
Thanks so much for playing, yes the game need a while to complete if you dont have much luck!
Hey blek! Glad to see you in this jam, feels like forever since the last one we did together. Just played and rated your game I really loved the lighting and your use of rewind! I really struggled with the 4th level I could have sworn I used the combination on the hint but I guess I didn't because I ended up brute forcing my way through it which took forever lol. The rope mechanics were super well done! As someone who's tried to do rope mechanics in one of my games before it's not easy. I do wish some of the cutscenes would have let me manually go through the text as I didn't get to read all of them. Overall great submission! I'd love to hear your thoughts on my game!
Thanks so much for playing! Really appreciate your Feedback. I am really glad you liked it! I know that you can really read all things in the cutscenes, although we hadn't any time left, so we just did PowerPoint slides lmao. And would love to play your game!
Would have liked to get more of the story, but I enjoyed the gameplay.
Some of the riddles werent that comprehensible.
A small enjoyable game. Good job
Some riddle can't be found just by thinking, you need to die in order get further. But still thanks for the feedback! :D
