Cute idea. I didn't read the page detail, so I didn't know that I could rewind through the level, but I didn't really have a use for it. The death animation made me think at first that there were spots on the map that you could fall through ( I may just be dumb), so it might be nice in the future to have different animations for different deaths.  Overhaul a cute little game.

 I really recommen you make an ingame tutoriaö, that would be much more satisfying.

Also i really love the idea of rewind the time, but its useless when it doesnt work when the enemy kill you.  There is still really much to polish and fix, but the main idea is good, i would finish the game if it  doesnt need much time.


Here this is my game, would be nice to get feedback from you.

Pretty neat and simple game. The rewind button didn't help all that much considering it was insta-death so I couldn't rewind my actions that killed me. I was able to find the hidden ingredients by luck and that surprised me where you guys hid them. I did have a problem falling through the map numerous times though, wasn't sure if the smiling evil clouds were hinting something but no matter how I jump, I either fall through the floor or something invisible kills me. Good game nonetheless and great job on the game jam!

Thanks for playing it! We might change the instant death  to start rewinding after the game jam is over if e decided to keep working on it. Th clouds, arrows and the TNT will all kill you if you touch them, which you will them fall through the floor. Glad that you liked the game!:)

While the music was kind of nice, there were a few odd things that I noticed. For instance, the game didn't have much to do with the theme aside from the rewind button. In some cases, it didn't worked, as whenever I got hurt, I would still get a game over even when pressing it. It would be nice if I could use the rewind button to undo my death. The game also seemed a bit short, as I completed it within a few minutes. The difficulty could be improved by putting presents in hard to reach places or adding more traps. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant experience to play through.

Thanks! I'll fix the rewind button after the jam is over if I decided to keep working on it, and I also should probably make the theme a bigger part of the game next time, and also make it more challenging. Thanks a lot for the feedback! :)

There was a bug at the beginning, if you walk left you fall of the map. The rewind feature was pretty cool, nice job with the theme.

Developer(+2)

Thanks for playing it! I fix the bug after the jam is done if I decided to keep working on it!

This is a neat little game, but I think it could be fleshed out more. I got stuck at the first person you meet and couldn't progress. I'm also not quite sure how this fits the theme of the jam. Good work overall.

Developer(+2)

Thanks! The person you meet is suppose to mean that you missed an ingredient on your way there, so you need to go find it. You can press "Z" to rewind you move which can be useful when you fall off a cliff or want to go back to some places that you couldn't just jump back without dying.

Developer

Cute game. The jump felt a little small, but a nice platformer overall.

Developer

Thanks! I might change up the control a bit after the game jam is over, glad you liked it! :)

Submitted(+1)

I liked the theme and the idea of the game, both are really, really, cool! I was a bit confuse in some parts. With more time, this game would be even better!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing it! I'll change it up a bit and make the instructions more clear after the jam is done if i decided to keep working on it!  really glad you like the idea! :D

Submitted

Oh, I'm happy with the response haha

Check our game too, if possible. Have a great day~

The game idea is awsome and very cool but the controls are wanky and rewind dont apply for the arrows so maybe you change that, despire that,

You did an awesome game, you made me go to the end and play full, great job mate!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for playing it! I'll change up the control a bit after the jam is done if i decide to keep working on the game. :)

Sometimes it gets confusing which tiles i can stand on, i would consider making a "truth" flashlight around ur cursor, so u can see which tiles are true and which ones are fake. Very fun game to play with tho! ;)

Developer

Thanks! I'll consider adding it to the game after the jam is done! :) 

Submitted (1 edit)

the game was okay but i really didnt even need to use the rewind to finish the game. i had fun playing it and it has a good ending

Developer

Thank you! I'll  make the theme a bigger part of the game next time :D
