Really hard game, but amazing at the same time! Great job!
I can't understand what you have to do or how to play. :s
The visuals are really good and the music fits with it. At the beginning it was kinda of hard to get used to the mechanics, but the gameplay concept was great. It was fun to play the game and I really enjoyed it.
This form of rewinding was genuinely unique and creative! Along with the fantastic art and quality music, the atmosphere of this game alone gave me reason to play it. My only critique would be the lack of explanation/guidance at the beginning, along with the immediate difficulty. Giving players an easy level or two to get used to your mechanics, especially mechanics as novel as these, can really boost player retention and enjoyment in the long run. Other than those small things, fantastic game!
Thanks for the feedback!
I'll keep those things in mind in the future!
The gameplay idea is so nice !
Loved your game !
Thank you for the feedback!
I really like your take on the theme but there are some minor issues that have a bad influence on the overall experience.
I had no idea about the controls and had to figure out how the rewind mechanic works via trial and error. Moreover it would be very usefule to have a start button on the keyboard instead of using the mouse and then switching quickly to the keyboard.
It was also very frustrating to restart manually everytime I died since there's no respawn.
Once these minor issues are resolved it will be a great game, in my opinion.
The theming is really good and it is aesthetically stunning. Nice job there!
Thank you for the feedback!
The core game play does need more explanation for sure. And thank you very much for pointing out the minor issues, I had not realized how much it impacted the game. I hope to fix those issues soon!
Your art style us gorgeous anyway, it really set the mood and create a great atmosphere.
the game is quite hard to get used to. And I thing using mouse to start recording is kinda difficult to play. But I like the theme <3
Thanks for your feedback!
The game play definitely is quite hard to learn especially without much explanation on my part, I hope to add a tutorial level or something similar.
very nice gameplay!, but it is so hard i couldnt even finish the first level
Thanks for the feedback!
