Ranked from 30 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?
A few ways:

- There is a rewind time mechanic in the 3rd level
- The goal of each level is to rewind an audio cassette by clicking on pencils (ya know, how we used to do it "back in the day")
- The aesthetic of the game itself from graphic themes & music is a nostalgic rewind to the 80's

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote a bunch of the core game play bits such as:
- Game Manager which handles clickable object spawning, pooling, progress, states, etc (it quickly turned into a beast of a script)
- Menu button actions & scene transition logic/timing
- Tape Deck button actions and unlock logic

With the exception of the Rewind ability icon, all assets were gathered either from the Unity Asset store or free assets available online (such as the clickable object models)

Did I just get rickrolled? The game looks absolutely gorgeus, but I found one bug: if you click the pencils during time rewind, they don't disappear. I abosluetely love the game aesthetic and the music choice, good job!

The game's atmosphere is perfect. The gameplay is also something I have never seen in the jam, but it still fits the theme. Good job !

This is really cool and I love the music you used! The theme of the whole game was really well put together :D And I liked the cassette tape at the beginning where you could listen to the different tracks used

The audio is really nice! Some cool music going on.

I like how goofy your game is, like some random stationery flying across the screen. Haha.
Nice job on the aesthetics too

Next time put your builds in separate folders ;) Also your Webgl build doesnt work then :D. However i really liked the Graphics and the Sound in this game.  The gameplay was the right difficulty i think. The pencil click could be a bit more visualized. Over all great submission!

Thanks for the WebGL tip.  Dunno if it counts but the webGL build works on my simmer.io page if that's your preferred method.
