In what way does your game fit the theme?
Rewind is interpreted as going back to how it used to be. In the game you physically put things back to where they used to be before the time runs out and the "rewind" is complete.

Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I watched some tutorial videos for some of the code, but I made every other aspect of the game myself.

Nice Game. I like the art and the sounds give good feedback. The music fits very well and your the character feels smooth to controller. The levels are good but sometimes a little bit too hard and sometimes a little bit too easy. I would just sort them in a different way so the levels get harder and harder. I would make the spike collider a little bit smaller so that it doesn´t feel that unfair.

Overall a nice game. Good Job!

I´ve submitted a local multiplayer game: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/722755. I would be happy to get your feedback on it. :-D (I also posted a comment on your topic)

Nice game! I really like the art style and the general idea. I think the time you get to complete each level doesn't fit the levels. There are some levels I hardly completed in time, and in others, I had a lot of spare time.
Anyway, good job!

Very simple, but fun. Congrats! I would change the hitboxes a bit

I liked the game, it's very simple and it's seems very nice to match the theme. I think it could have another trap to make it more intresting.

I wish there was an option to not use the mouse to aim the character since it made me miss a few drop offs, stop and go back and the music was to repetitive. Overall it was okay :)

Nice game, movements are smooth. The concept it's not complicated but it's well executed. Put the colored boxes in their place it's a bit imprecise. And for my part the game was too easy, you could decrease time limit.

Good job !

Simple, but in a great way, and very well executed. I love simple games like these in a jam where I can get the concept within seconds and start playing it with little to no explanation. I thought about this idea too so it is nice to see someone implemented it well. Good job! :)

Nice game! 

I think you should make player hit box a bit smaller. There was some situations where it was a bit unfair. And if you get stuck between wall and moving spike you get killed easily. It would be better if you'd also make player invulnerable a bit longer after taking hit and disable player collider also. I think you should move camera out a bit. Currently you are restricting players view a bit too much in my opinion.

Overall I liked the game was fun to play and music fit well with the game.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll definitely use it if I decide to expand on the game

the movement and the controls were nice,  i liked the music but after a while i got kinda repetitive, puzzles were ok but they didnt felt hard they just felt tedious, the rewind theme doesnt have much to do with the gameplay sometimes i found myself asking me were was the rewind theme. i had fun playing this, it was simple and nice so good job!

Developer

Yeah… I know the theme-part was a stretch. But I’m glad you liked the game and I’ll take note of your feedback

Nice approach to the them. Puzzles were good too... Overall had a nice time playing it... although I think the music could do some work

Good game nonetheless...(Rated)

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback. The music definitly needs work, but tried to make it myself for the first time

Submitted(+1)

You did a great job for the first time... Keep it up😀

Nice game, I like how you are open to multiple routes per level and part of the puzzle is deciding what the best route to take is

Submitted(+1)

Nice game! The cursor being black in a dark environment makes it hard to see sometimes, but other than that, a really cool game!

Hey I liked the music and sfx the design is very simple but cool, good job.

Fun challenging game. I felt like the spike were too close sometimes. I be up against the wall and still get hit. I like the level design and the helper arrow as well! 

Developer

yeah, I went a bit overboard with spikes xD Glad you liked it :D

Submitted(+1)

That's a fun game, the time limit makes it so intense sometimes :D
One suggestion I have is to reduce interact range so you don't accidentally pick up the wrong box, specially in smaller areas.

I finished lvl 10 with 32 sec left...

someone try beating it faster

So, when I downloaded the game - I'm using a mac - and played it, all it gave me was a blue screen. Should I be waiting or is this a glitch?

Developer (1 edit)

I honestly haven't been play-testing on mac. Just hoped it'd work. I'll try to ask my mac-using friends if the same happened to them. (I'll write to you if I find a solution)

this is a very good game and a creative take on the theme well done
