In what way does your game fit the theme?
You can rewind bullets that haven't yet hit anything and collect them again, or use them as a boomerang... This is key in the boss battle at the end!
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All of the code is written by my self, art, design, sounds and similar were all done by me. Only the Music and Fonts were by other people, seen in the credits and on the page.

This game is really cool, and a lot polished. However I really don't like that when you die you have to restart the level from the beginning and that when you lose all your lives you have to restart the whole game, it feels unfairly unforgiving. Besides this, nice entry!
Cool, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback, there was an limitless mode option in the settings that you could have put on, it was so harsh to simulate the original Mario bros games, but I'll definitely make it a lot bigger for the final release,thanks again!
Hi great game really smooth and polished!! I just think its a bit harsh that you get killed in one shot.
I'm glad you liked it! And thanks for the feedback :D
Really nice game! The controls feel good and the artwork also looks very nice.
The shooting mechanic can just be skipped and run through the level avoiding the enemies, maybe adding some way to force the player into using the shoot-rewind tech would be nice. The background also leaves a black void at the top and bottom of the level, but that might be intended and didn't feel bad at all, so no problem.
But apart from that, the game has a simple idea and manages to build nice levels around it. Everything feels like a part of the same game and I had a good time playing it. Good job and keep it up!
I would really appreciate if you could check out my game and leave a rating, thanks :)
I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I've seen the issue about skipping levels so in the last two I tried to enforce the shooting mechanic a bit more, especially by adding the boss fight which requires the use of the rewind mechanic, although I'm not sure how well it actually worked. The background was a problem I knew about - I thought it looked kind of cool but a lot of people have mentioned it so on the newgrounds release I have locked the camera to not go above / below it :D Thanks for all the feedback, I'll definitely try to check out your game if I get the chance :)
