In what way does your game fit the theme?
You're rewinding, aka playing a dungeon crawler in reverse. Instead of mobs and character getting better, mobs stay the same and character gets weaker.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes. I wrote all code and made all graphics. I borrowed the main sound track and some props (I have licenses to use them).

This was cool, I had a similar idea going into the jam, starting with the powerful loot and losing it as you go back. Enjoyed the graphics. The hitboxes seemed a little clunky, sometimes it hit enemies behind me, and other times it didn't seem to go far enough. Some variation on the enemy AI would have been cool too.
This game is really cool. The visuals are impressive, the music fits well and the dialogues are funny, even though that may not have been their goal. The thing I'd improve are the hitboxes: sometimes it's hard to hit anything, other times, like versus the boss, you can just stand still near his hand, spam attacks and get your easy win
The game is fun and cool. The background music and graphic made me feel like being in a horror movie.
The only things I don't like is the game spawn too much enemy, and the boss is kinda hard (maybe for me).
Good Job,
Really enjoyed! The graphics and general polish of the game is great! I loved the story and the game controls really well! One suggestion I would make is to make the combat a little bit more complex. It felt like I normally either walked up and hit the enemy and moved on, or just simply jumped over them. Also, there is a hole in the back wall on the first level that the player can walk through and get out of bounds. Overall though, I thought this was a fantastic game and really enjoyed!
Overall pretty cool! The game was certainly interesting
The combat feels good, the soundfx, the slight camera shake (or it's in my head). I like the special effects. Could be even more fun with jump mechanics and maybe an ability. There is a bug on the first dungeon with the cape, I ran to the far door before the mob came down then I was stuck behind him. Nice work.
Thanks! There's some slight camera shakes everywhere :) Oh you spotted it! It was even worse 15 min before deadline, then you could run it through altogether. I had a partial fix that went in 1 minute before deadline xD
I like the graphics and there are 2 dogs which is double nice, but I don't think the game fits the theme properly
Good job with the effects and the graphics. Like my game, introduction dialogue might be too long =)
Thanks! I agree, in hindsight I should have added a skip option and made the delay between text faster :P thanks for the feedback!
cool game i like the movement and combat well done
Really cool game!!! Loved the graphics and the story made me laugh all the way up the end!
Really nice graphics! Also I like how you used the theme from a story perspective and a game play perspective. Cool! Pretty hard though.
I love the graphics especially the mood and animations! Nice job!
Nice little game.Had fun playing it. The graphics look amazing. Good job.
Maybe the combate style needs a bit of work. But a Good game nonetheless considering its a jam game..
Thanks for the feedback man! What kind of changes would you like to see in a combat system? :)
Tbh I can’t specifically think of anything. Combats were a bit simple for my taste but considering this is a jam game. You did a very good job !
Wow very cool game nice effects and mood too!
It's a good start. I like the idea of starting out as powerful then working back but it can get tricky to balance the difficulty. I think you managed it well though.
good game
havent played it but looks cool
Hehe thanks, you should give it a shot ;)
Really good take on the theme :) music and graphics are nice. I'd say that it would feel better if the text speed was higher. Keep up the great work! :)
Stunning art really !
Fun to play and immersive even in webGl the game run smooth, good job ! :)
That dog is really cute haha!
I love the music and everything :)
