In what way does your game fit the theme?
The game fits the theme in 2 different ways. Firstly, the player plays in a battlefield shaped like a rewind clock. Secondly, as the level progresses, the player experiences time Rewinds, hence downgrading all of his/her weapons. Also, once the clock hand completes one anticlockwise rotation, the level ends, hence time-bounding the player.
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes, all the scripts, visuals, and music are made by us. (We 2 brothers did a collab!!). The music is custom made by us using BeepBox.co. However, the sound effects(Gunshots, Gun hits, and Explosions) are used from FreeSound.org.

man this game is JUICY. Love all the feedback from shooting and killing stuff.
I think I have two main thoughts on this game. The first is that, despite the levels changing and difficulty increasing, the game kind of stayed the same. I know "point and shoot" sounds like it may be oversimplifying but its ultimately what I did for all 10 levels. I didn't really have to move, or change my playstyle as eras regressed, I just kept clicking on the bad guys.
You guys came up with one of the more unique takes on the theme, I think it would've been better to see you just take it and run wild. The consequences of eras and weaponry rewinding don't feel all that important in it's current state.
The other thought is that the character controller seems to be inconsistent in how it moves, for me at least. This is mostly what drove me to not even bother with moving and jumping.
Thanks for the appreciation!!
really liked ur feedback!!
Really great UI Design!
Cool game overall. One of the most unique ideas i've seen on this gamejam. The only thing that did bother me (personal opinion) was the music, in my opinion it was way too repetitive and i started to hate it after 3 or 4min of playing. Everything else is fine, it is pleasing to play and it has a cool mechanic. Good job!
Thanks Bud!!!
Well u can turn off the music and sound by going to the settings menu
we will surely test ur ideas in the future game jams!!!!
Yeah did mute the music, great choice to add the possibility to do so. Great job! :)
:)
Great Idea! really unique and fun!
Thank you!!!
Great game and idea! The sound design makes it really satisfying to play!
thanks alot buddy!!!
This game is really fun! the idea of weapons switching over time makes for a really good mechanic! I didnt run into any bugs or strange issues while playing, so its a pretty solid game!
Thank You Bud!!!!!!!!!!!
I really liked your game! The story was creative. The sounds work well and the music does the job. The UI was great and I enjoyed the way you presented the instructions to the GreatPlayer!
I did music and sound for this one: https://mastro2k.itch.io/whathehole Maybe we can Jam together in the future!
Thank you!!!
Yes we can definitely think of doing a collab.
Nice game! Short and fun. I liked the visuals, however the gameplay was a little too random sometimes, especialy at the last boss level, which I beat nonetheless. Overall, cool little game.
Thank You So Much!!!
Really fun game, simple but well executed and polished. The idea idea of the era changing with the time counter and the gun changing as well is really clever and added a level of diversity and complexity to the gameplay. The tutorial page is wonderfully made so it's simple to understand what is going on. Also the music is great and the art is beautiful, really liked those backgrounds. Overall good job! :D
Thanks for the kind words mate!!!
A simple but well-thought out game. It can be a strain on your hands. haha. But however it is charming and a big thrill to play. Could be a perfect mobile game if you add some more features! Please do check out my game. Only has two ratings so far, and I hope you enjoy it. This is an awesome game!
Thank you mate really appreciate you!! i will check yours too!
Well Your Game Was Good But That Kind Of Idea Was Used By Many Players . Bur Overall Nice Game!!!!
Simple but solid. the bullet speed for each downgrade was noticeable
Thank You!!!
Was a little dissapointed when the "Boss Level" looked the same as pretty much every other level. My main criticism with this game is that the levels don't really change more than copy-and-pasting enemies in different places. But other than that, the game is really fun. The weapons feel satisfying to use and the connection to the theme is fun too. The gameplay was addicting and the circular arena was unique and fun to bounce around in. Overall, great submission! Awesome work.
Thanks for the suggestion mate
i will try to improve that in the later jams
Our plan was to be unique!!!
Really cool game! Awesome to play, looks great 10/10 would play again :)
Super interesting idea! the controls are a bit clunky and enemies move so fast and so randomly that they are difficult to hit, but it's super fun!
That's the point pal we made it difficult to hit them
Def a bit addicting. Love the downgrade of weapons over time and the music. The explosions felt great with the sound and effects. I like the feel of the different guns too. Nice job!
Thanks for the appreciation
This means alot to me man!!!
Lots of good sound effects, smooth graphics and a very simple, yet addicting gameplay that leaves me playing over and over! Nice work!
Thank you !!!
I want more levels, i can't stop playing it
xDDDD srry bud but there was only 7 day time
I like the concept but it needs improvements on the sounds
i know i took the sounds from sites and were not accurate
This game was super fun
Thank You!!
