A LOT of fun! You plan your paths but it is still super difficult the more ghosts there are, really good learning curve too. I loved it!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
In the game the player is rewinded back in space and time and can see their previous selves play out what is now their past actions.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
All code was done by ourselves, majority of assets where purchased.

I loved it! The idea of dodging old versions of yourself is really cool. Also de visuals and music go very well with the game. I honestly have nothing bad to say, really had fun playing! Good job and congrats for the entry!
I would highly appreciate if you could check out my game and rate it, thanks :)
Wow! i was pretty impress. I was about to ask if you made everything yourself but i saw the asset bought. even so... this was so fun and challenging, it actually made me thing and watch out for my moves. I had a lot of fun! didn't find any bugs. except like the intro dialogue always plays when you go back. like from level select and you go back, it plays the intro dialogue again. Love the game! one of the top 5 or 10 games in the jam!
Good platformer game that forced you to play well and make as little mistakes as possible because they literally come back to haunt you. I didn't really see any use for the dash as you already moved so quickly.
Also there is a bug where you can activate two cardreaders at the same time if you jump in between them breaking the game forcing you to die and try again :/
Nice platformer/puzzler with a twist on the whole "create a clone" idea since you don't really have the control of when to create one so you have to be careful with your movement and plan your next route to be successfuly. Good job
Nice idea, good and challenging game! I liked to coordinate with future and past self :D
Jumping in narrow spaces was a bit frustrating but the game was funny anyway.
The walljump thingy was a little bit annoying but other than that it felt really good! Amazing work on this game! Keep it up!
Nice game and a great implementation of the theme. Good visuals and the whole aesthetics. Wonderful job!
Really good game, with quite a lot of levels.
I had two small problems :
-Some background objects felt like they were part of the level, which created some confusion. Like in one level you have a vertical grey bar that seems to be blocking the access to a keycard, but it's only background.
-The walljumpy/wallsticky thing felt pretty bad. It wasn't useful in my whole playthrough, and its only function was to make me miss some double jumps. I don't really understand this mechanic.
Other than that, great work, lots of content, good idea.
Quite the nice game.
I loved the concept of the game really made you have to think and focus he music and graphics were really nice to and most of the mechanics worked really well except maybe the movement was a bit hard but other than that I really liked this game. :)
a pretty cool concept! However, i want to feel more in control of the character, the acceleration and deceleration. good job otherwise :)
I really enjoy the concept for this game, you are both the player and the obstacle. I really enjoyed it, thought it could get a little frustrating at times, especially when I found out in the last level I could’ve been double jumping the whole time. I think the metrics of the game were off slightly, I could never really get a read on how high the player could go when they jumped. I really like the art, and the dash was super fun to play around with. Overall a solid submission with some really great work!
Loved the game!! Great audio and nice animations!! It is very challenging and a lot of fun
Audio great, graphics great, idea/concept great. Overall is a solid "almost perfect" game, I loved the idea, for real! I'm impressed with the concept, really well thought. But I have only one complain that stops me from giving 5 stars in everything. It is not huge deal, it is actually something that many people struggle to do(even I struggle): Difficulty, sometimes it is too hard, sometimes it is very easy and I think that stops me from "mastering" the game and sometimes even having fun. I'm playing, level is super easy, then next level is the mission impossible chapter 7 you know what i mean? Idk if it is me or the game, but I had this problem so here I am saying, maybe it is just me hahaha.
Anyway, it is a nice game, top level, steam quality you know? good job!
Try mine too and say if you like it, might as well leave it a rating too!
This is an excellent game! Nice use of assets and the core mechanic is spot on for the theme. Previous versions of yourself is very similar to how I interpreted the theme in my submission so I loved seeing that :]
I think this is such a well rounded and polished game its hard to find anything to say critique-wise. It has the right amount of speed and difficulty for exactly what its going for. I also noticed how on level 8 it seemed impossible to get to the top, or maybe I just don't know how to properly wall jump. That was a tricky mechanic for me to grasp.
I did however find a bug; by accidentally dashing right after I had touched one of my ghosts, and then pressing up quickly at the unlocked teleporter, my dead body was able to progress to the next level as normal. I thought it was super cool and a funny but maybe it's something worth looking at on your end if you're going for a real bug-free end product.
Excellent game, Loved the graphics and music. also excellent mechanics.
I couldnt figure out how to get past level 8 because its nearly impossible to go from the bottom to the top and thus i cant reach the final terminal
wow nice, simple, and effektive idea! really well executed too! the different elements fit so well together. you want to make a clean, precise path for the clones to make them less of an obstacle but time limit works against that. super cool!
