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.

Once I got the mechanic, I was determined to keep getting better with each try. You plugged into that gamer itch to keep going. All of the menus were clear and easy to access. The song worked great for the game. As a small suggestion, consider some kind of visual when the bird crashes (screen shake, cartoony explosion, leaves bursting in the air) along with audio for the bird itself. Every 25m on the distance could also giving a rising audio indicator, so the player knows they just hit a milestone. If you are going to keep going with this game, consider a visual representation of the upgrade on the bird itself (for example, he gets sunglasses or a cape, when he gets more efficiency). Very fun game loop!
Great game and excellent use of the Rewind theme. The gameplay loop is addicting and quite fun. You should ask the player to enter the shop whenever he/she has enough money to buy something so the player doesn't need to return to the main menu and check each time. That's just a minor nitpick though, great work!
Very nice and fun game, you did well for you first jam!
I think I did quite well playing it too:
:D
I like this unique approach to theme. But the game is hard, it would be a cool mobile game, but too hard in window
The concept was quite different. It was really a tedious task to rotate the mouse and then go over to up button again..But the concept was really unique. Nice thought process :D
