Nice job with this. Really cool take on the rewind theme, driving in reverse is pretty strange looking, but still pretty fun. Overall, nice job!

Developer

Thank you!

Hi, I played it for 10 minutes. I see there is a lot of improvement to make. Firstly there is no alternative for commands for an Azerty keyboard, the thing that made me suffer. Also, the maneuverability of the vehicle is very bad. And to finish in the same theme, restarting and music does not help at all, remember that a good or a bad music can change everything and that you should make the player comfortable! Well, good continuation for your next projects!

Developer

Thank you!

Interesting take on the theme. Having to go through the dialogue every restart is a bit of a pain, and the level starts without warning and has caused some instant deaths. Otherwise nice job!

Developer

Thank you!

I like it, the only thing is the car did not respond the way I would expect a reversing car to do. But you get used to it, good job!

Developer

Thank you!

It's a nice idea and it's not bad developed, though the feel could have been better, improving the controls and reducing the hitboxes that are quite unforgiving. But anyway well done, cool concept

Developer

Thank you for the tips!

This is a really well made game! It's just the right level of difficulty and is very addicting.

Thanks for rating!

The  game is very fun I wish there was another level I could play through!

I have a gripes which is the placing of the energy orbs. Some energy orbs could've been placed in less tight areas, I understand sometimes placing them in tight areas are regarded for difficulty but when its done rather early, I believe its the 2nd or 3rd orb after starting, it can be a  bit frustrating.

I really liked the flow the game got me into, Great Job! :)

Developer

Thank you for giving me tips!

The idea and the mechanic is great! I am not sure about the music yet. Made me feel a little bit uncomfortable.

Hope you continue to develop! Good job!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for rating and playing, I agree that I could work on the music.

Submitted(+1)

I'm sure in the next one you will get even better!

If you have time, check our game too~

Have a great day, mate

The game is good, but the music kinda gets annoying after some time. The UI doesn't quiet match sometimes. But a great game overall.

Please rate my game as well: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/724377

Good job! I hope you keep on making cool games like this. I also love how you started with some dialogue, it set up the fun tone of the game right away.

Developer

Thank you!

Fun idea! There is defenitly a lot of room for improvement but still well done!

Developer

Thank you!

  • Graphic is OK but I think it's too colorful and have more shade. I've feel a bit pain when play for a while
  • I think it's should not have dead end (cuz the car can't turn around easier)
  • Rewind Mechanics is simple but too straight (Is it just move ship backward 2-3 sec before ? I through so)
  • Congrats to your game. It's a good game but need a bit improve. Keep it up!
Developer

Thanks for the tips!

The camera spins really quick, and I'd also critisize that you get brought back to the main menu after dying. Aside from that, all the models look really well made and the game is actually quite fun and I like the interpretation that the car goes backwards. Good job so far!

Developer

thank you for your feedback

Good job on the game! The music is pretty funny :D Some other comments:

  • Definitely can improve a lot on the graphics
    • Its pretty obvious that the levels were only designed at a small area where the player is supposed to traverse using the car, but I can see far off that there are empty undesigned areas
    • land is flat and plain
    • shadows are over-harsh
  • I think that you worked on the music yourself, which is a good plus. However, the music repeats in such a short loop with only 4? notes, and that can drive the player crazy pretty quickly :D
  • The take on the "rewind" theme was kinda straightforward - literally rewinding time for the spaceship. However, it as a nice take that "rewind" is done for the car as i had to drive it backwards too, good challenge!

Overall, still congrats on the game & thanks for letting me play it

Do play & rate mine too if you can:)
