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.

Really nice & chill game to play! At first I thought that holding "UP" alone would maximise height points, but later found out that using "UP" sparingly works better. It has some nice replayability for experimentation & learning of the mechanics. Some other feedback:
- Controls were weird. I'm not sure if there are keyboard controls, but using mouse alone is weird... or maybe its just me (idk :D). I guess it is also considered a challenge to use the mouse to alternate between rotating winder & holding "UP"
- The idea of the graphics are pretty cute, but not as "clean". For e.g., There are some white texts on top of bright background with white skies
- The contents of the game feels pretty basic. I believe more can be added on top of the main mechanic to make it even more interesting!
Do play & rate my game too, thanks!

Phantom-ManMusic is catchy and the mechanic is awesome. Great use of the word 'rewind'! With some polishing, I could picture this as a mobile game. It would be great to see a leaderboard to see and challenge for the #1 spot

Timeless TaleOnce 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!
