In what way does your game fit the theme?
The Idea of rewinding the environment back into place
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?

Nice game! I'm a bit confused of what the Distort Time does, maybe make some visual indicators or something? Still an interesting idea on rewind tho!
Seemed to be a fairly unique form of rewinding, which I appreciated, though I felt that the animation for rewinding took a bit too long? The agents seemed pretty cool, and while I didn't fully understand what 'T' did, I did have fun getting around them! The actual controls and movement were incredibly solid, so great job in that area! Overall, this was a cool game, though in the future I might recommend introducing/explaining mechanics a bit more.
Keep going! you're getting better
So I saw the press "E" thing to rewind the environment, did the land fall or something? Also, I didn't notice anything when I pressed "T", not sure if I was missing anything. Maybe some sort of animation by pressing "T" like you did when he holds the hourglass would be nice.
The design of the guy and the agent were pretty solid I think, but adding things in the background and putting more detail in the tiles, especially the dirt part below the grass, would be a benefit to you. More challenges besides just the agents and the hourglass could be cool. Also, the agent seems to float to other tiles to get to you, not sure if this is intentional but if it is you should add a particle effect to his movement, since at the moment the way he moves looks like a bug.
However, the concept and gameplay behind your game is solid, and I liked it. The only thing it requires is small tweaks. Good job!
Thank you for the feedback !
