In what way does your game fit the theme?
I used the winding(twist/rotate) aspect of Rewind. The player have to rotate or "Re-Winding" the winder constantly to gain power.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I worked solo on this project and all the coding graphics, sounds were created by me. Only the player sprite is downloaded from the internet and its copyright free.

You've approached the theme in a similar way than my game.
+ Love the art and the simple mechanic. At the same time really fun!
+ Sound and graphics are simple but more than enough
+ It is fun to play!
- Maybe add some collectable items (some kind of power up) could increment the joy of playing.
Having to use the mouse for both actions makes it almost impossible to keep flying for very long. Also the total-score doesn't reset when you replay so I thought I was getting better and better when in reality my scores just added up.
A very interesting way of thinking about the theme. Instead of rewinding time you rewind a lever. Leaves a lot of space for creativity. The game is pretty challenging though. The artstile is really nice and the audio is great (considering the game was made in only 2 days). The sound of rewinding is very satisfying!
i wish i can collect fuel instead of rotating and flying at the same time :(
This reminds me of that one flash game where you play as a penguin flying an airplane and you buy upgrades for it lol. I actually had a lot of fun with this game, you actually need pretty fast reflexes to switch from pressing the up button and rewinding the bird, which I really like! The only thing I'd want is more upgrades in the shop, it is a little lacking with only two.
I've always been really fond of this kind of games when I first started playing flash games, so you hit a sweet spot for me. It could have been interesting to have a greater variety of upgrades, but in general I liked how you handled the theme, good job!
Best I could do was 299 Meters! Was funny when I almost went into space I got warned. Fun game!
Could you please play and rate my game as well?

Carpal tunnel simulator 2020. Good concept though but it is very unforgiving and quite difficult. Maybe add some wind zones or something that you can enter to delay falling or something.
Cool concept and I also went for winding stuff up in my entry. It is also my first gamejam so I would appreciate your rating!
(You gotta wind up the airship to reach maximum speed while fighting off enemies and feeding the furnace).
