Ha ha! I got worked on the easy level. I am sure it is me that just sucks playing your game. I loved the pixel art and the rewind mechanic.

Great job!

Could you please play and rate my game as well?

Nice, It is quite hard.. The enemies sometimes appear just near you.. maybe the random should avoid so near this because they are shooting like crazy. I like the matrix effect that slow down.. and also the rewind with space works well (you should put it on the right button of the mouse because I had the hand busy one with the arrows and other with mouse and was hard to press space).

Good job.

My game is a casual game if you wanna rate is https://misterm.itch.io/mixtape-match , Thanks

Great game but the text was a little hard to read as they keep disappearing and reappearing. Other than that the rewind mechanic is 5 stars, wish my game had that feel to it. It is very similar to your game but in a first person view. We even have similar rewind mechanic and bullet hell , endless runner features. 

Well done dude, keep it up. It was a very nice experience to play your game. Really love the glitching  effect you rewind.

Really nice idea! It felt way too hard, I couldn't survive for longer than 20 seconds, but that might just be me lol.

Overall really nice entry, I enjoyed playing it. Good job, keep it up! Would really appreciate if you could check out and rate my game :)

Developer

thanks for the feedback man :) I will check out your game

Very nice and relaxing but a bit hard tho...

overall pretty polished and fun and enjoyable to play...

Developer

thanks for the feedback man :) good to hear

Really like the feeling of the game. It is quite relaxing and difficult. One suggestion I have with it is to have the enemy bullets not despawn whenever black heart dies. Other than that really good looking visuals, simple concept great execution. I really like how time slows down as it rewinds, gives a really nice feeling to it. Overall pretty polished, fun and enjoyable to play. Thanks for making it!

Pretty unique idea! Maybe you could continue to let the fireball travel even after their shooter has die :) good job!

Developer

thanks for the feedback :) much appreciated.

Nice use of the rewind function in a bullet hell type game :) 

The text in the how to play menu is kind of annoying to read when it's got that flashing effect on it. Otherwise well done.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback man, good to hear :)

This game is fun. The only thing I thought which was kind of annoying was the flickering text. I know it was intentional but it was kind of hard to read. That was just my personal preference tho. :) Overall great game!

Developer

Ya, I thought that might be a problem lol. Thanks for the feedback and kind words though, much appreciated :)

I love the rewind mechanic and it is a nice top down shooter! With a little polish like more animations and screen shake, this could be a  great shooter!

Developer

thanks for the feedback and kind words man :)

With more polish this could be a very solid bullet hell shooter. The time rewind mechanic really fits the genre!

thanks for the feedback man, enjoy the rest of your day :)

Really Enjoyed! The mechanics and game play feel really solid. Some type of high score system to see how well you did would be nice

Developer

I was thinking about doing highscore but I just didnt end up doing for some reason. Thanks for the feedback and kind words though :D

Found the game really fun - music and art are on point.

Felt more like an aim-trainer however with the bullets/hearts being so small and needing precise aim but otherwise it was fun haha.

Did get into a bit of a weird position where i was pretty much guarenteed death even with rewinding because after coming out of a rewind i'd instanstly go back into slow-mo from another bullet.. Maybe i'm just bad xD

Otherwise, awesome job - polish it up after the jam!

Developer

lol, thanks for the feedback and kind words :D

I would recommend you to polish the game after the jam is over, this game has potential :) Pretty cool game, and also make the run animation not run when the player is not moving :D

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for the feedback and kind words :)

Submitted(+1)

Nice game but for some weird reason the run animations plays even if you don't move :(

Developer(+1)

Yep, i thought i would do that cause i kinda liked the style of him moving in place but next time ill take it out. Thanks for the feedback :)

Submitted

I really like the concept and the way you implemented the theme, but the rewind was often glitchy. Really cool though
