Cool game! I really like how it's possible to push the enemies around and into lava to kill them, it really adds some great and fun variety to the combat and makes the player feel smart and inventive. This is a really great game for your first game especially, great job!

Developer

thank you very much i am glad you liked it :)

I liked how the controls felt, the artstyle is simple but actually really nice, good sounds and fun gameplay, but the rewind mechanic is not that useful and it only works as a way to recover health. Overall i enjoyed the game!

thank you very much for your feedback

It is a nice little game which is quite pleasant to play.

Overall I didn't really feel the need to use the rewind function, and found that avoiding the enemies was just faster.

Also, I didn't like that the player was so "floaty". It was hard to avoid projectiles once in the air. There is a GDC talk: Building a better jump, that gets into details of how to implement a, well, better jump.

Good job on your first game!

Developer

Thank you very much

The game play was super smooth.  I had a bit of difficulty finding incentive to use the rewind mechanic though.  What was your intended use when you designed it?

Developer

Simply i intended to use as a way to restore player's health but at a downside of restoring and reviving enemies as well so it would some challenge and difficulty to the game and thank you very much for your feedback

Very nice game! Its a very nice art style i liked the simplicity!

Developer

Amazing game, really enjoyed playing it, seems like you are inspired a lot from dani😁

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much glad you liked it and yes dani's game inspired alot of ideas for me but i also wanted to use 2D for simplicity 

Submitted

cool

I really liked the game! Minor things that would improve the game:

- Making the UI a tad bigger, i didnt even noticed where was my healthbar until 2 minutes in

- Having a timer between shots so you cant spam as much

Overall really fun game!

Developer

thank you very much glad you like it :)

I enjoyed this a lot! Some volume settings would've been nice, because it's really loud at the start lol. Also holding down the mouse button instead of spamming it would've been better I think

Developer

Thank you for your feedback and i am glad you enjoyed it :)

This was pretty cool! The mechanics were simple, but the rewind was well done and, more than some of the games I've tried, I actually found myself using it quite a lot and wishing I had more energy at times. The floaty physics of the jump felt lighthearted and good, too. Got lots of airtime to shoot with. The graphics were simple, but clean, and the audio fit (except the main menu music, which came on at pretty high volume right away). It was clear some effort went into enemy variety, but I think a bit more could have helped there -- most enemies seemed to have the same shot behavior with slightly different speed/timing.

This was one of the most fun games I've played so far! I do wish there was a little bit of camera shake though.

Developer

thank you :)

For your first game this is really good- fancy graphics and stuff can come later. I like how you use simple mechanics in an intuitive way to make a game that's fun and challenging. It is also very nice how it starts out with a super short intro level to orient the player. Great work!

If you get a chance, please try out and rate our game here https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-4/rate/722658. I hope you like it!

Thank you very much for your feedback i will make sure to try you game :)

Really cool game. But I couldn't play the game for too long because the bloom was too much and messed with my eyes.  The audio made the game more immersive and made me want to fly and shoot all over the place. :D

Developer

yea i think i made the bloom higher than it should thank you very much for you feedback :)

Submitted

Yeah this game rly wasnt that hard with an auto clicker... you should add fire rate to the shooting...

Developer

thank you for your feedback

Submitted

This was a really cool game, the music was immersive and the gameplay was just the right difficulty for me. If I were to make suggestions I would say to turn down the bloom a bit, it's pretty overwhelming and messed with my eyes. It also didn't feel great when a wave of enemies spawned on top of you, but it wasn't a huge deal because the rewind mechanic allows the player to get out of that situation.

Developer

alright thank you very much for your feedback 

Submitted

Pretty good, game ! I enjoyed the theme and the gameplay was well-made!

Developer

Thank you very much glad you liked it 

Nice bright colors and graphics, really like the music it makes me concentrate more in the game. ☺  

Developer(+1)

thank you <3

Really nice sound effects and music! It really had me immersed in the game! It's also really fun to spam the mouse button and kill the enemies.

One suggestion is to give the player a bit more control by making the jumping a little less floaty. Also, it would be good to force the player to use the rewind ability because most of the time I just forgot that it was an ability and just never used it.

Great submission though!

Developer

thank you for your feedback :)

Submitted

loved the effects, nice game. the music on the menu exploded my headphones lol

Developer

thank you for feedback i will make sure to fix that :)
