The checkpoint mechanic is useless. It should have  situation where you have to use it  pass  the level.

I little bit short and it could be more difficult. The movement is good. The rewind theme doesn't exists or is not necessary. But overall a funny little game.

First I was wow, that feature is a gimmick set your own checkpoints, but then the levels that required reset manipulation to beat: I was like "yeah, now I can roll with that". Unfortunately they where over way too quickly, basically when things started to get interesting.

A little too easy, but I always appreciate it if I don't have to beet some kaizo level to get the full experience.

(btw I am working on a platformer script for games similar to this *end of shameless self promotion*)

Enjoyed the mechanics of the game. Good work!! Liked the color scheme. Keep it up!!

I'd love to hear your input on my submission, I'm going to be continuing it after the jam so and criticisms / suggestions / feedback are welcome!

Dear spammer,

Please stop. You aren't doing anyone a favor, by complementing everyones mechanics and color scheme.
You aren't clever by flattering everyone. One click on your profile shows the wall of copy paste comments.
Jammers want your honest opinion, just like you are asking others.

Sincerely:
The righteous void

I actually really enjoyed the smooth movement!
But I actually completed the game without using the rewind at all, a nice trick is to really force the player to use the mechanic by having it required to pass the level to really let it shine (I messed that up in my own game to when fighting the Orge like you probably noticed) .

But overall very well done! You deserve great ratings! :D

in platformer aspects this game is really nice controls. missing music and sound effects i think?

also rewinding mechanic is just a checkpoint i guess. good job!

I played a few levels, but did not find a use for the restore point? After messing up a few times, I got teleported back to the start level, but I can't see and life indicators.

The game was nice, easy to control, also easy to finish, however I didn't had to use the time controls at all, next time I would recommend using level design to push players into using special powers, in our game we choose not to give player wall jump and force him to jump into holes that he can get out only using rewind. Also we have a trap, that you can escape only by using rewind. And rewind heals you.

Wow this was super neat!  I really like wall jump and how you can kinda control it, also how you can make your own save points!  This idea is clever, you should keep working on it!  Great job submitting to the jam, and I hope you learned a lot of new things!  If you have time, please check out my entry :D

Nice game! I love the wall-jump and controls, and the levels were fun even if there were only five. I would have loved some music and sounds, but great job!

I played it all, nice game with solid result, I like it. I think you should add more levels.

Very awesome puzzle game! Very satisfying double jump and wall jump, curious about how this relates to rewind :)
