Its a great idea!
Great music to go with the game, the mechanic works well especially with the spiky walls, I love that you can stop them. some of the later levels did get a little tedious when waiting for the rewind to happen.
Thank you for your feedback! I agree that it may be tedious, especially the later levels . and to make gameplay a bit easier in the future, I do plan to add a few more levels. Therefore, I am planning on adding a function to remove the last box, as this will make gameplay a bit easier.
The music is calming. Even after you fall into the pit for the 25th time. Cool game.
game is very good. gameplay is very smooth.
full rating on theme and fun aslo in game design ....graphic is decent.
Here's my review of this game, somewhat divided up according to the rating categories.
The art looks good with the main issue being some inconsistencies such as the levels being pixel art while the player itself is not.
It was fun to play and the level design was interesting with each level being a different challenge.
The game followed the theme well but not in the most innovative way, i can imagine most of the submissions being platformer games with the player having similar abilities.
Included music definitely helped the game quite a bit while the sound effects weren't the greatest.
Overall, the game was exactly what it was described as, a relaxing puzzle platforming game, the gameplay is fun and interesting, making for an overall positive experience.
thanks for playing my game and writing such extensive feedback, it helps me a lot! I agree that the sound design and graphics could use a lot of work, those are things I'm hoping to get better at in the future :) I'm glad you had fun though!
The level design is pretty good and it was cool to build solutions around the mechanic. Sometimes the blocks got in the way of each other so maybe having it so you can jump through the bottom of the blocks and land on top would have been nice. Overall solid game!
I agree that the soft lock can be annoying in this game, therefore I plan on adding a mechanic which allows the player to remove their last placed box. Thanks for your feedback anyways, I really appreciate it!
Not my kind of game but I can see someone spending hours on this so objectively speaking it's pretty good, I also loved the simplistic design!
I appriciate you taking the time to rate my game, and I will definitely continue working on it
I enjoyed playing the game, although it felt a bit on the short side. The art and music were quite nice.
Only minor complaint I have is that the first spike level and the very last level drag on for quite a while because of the infrastructure you have to build and the time it takes for the player to fully rewind before you get in control again.
Or maybe I'm just bad at building...
Very well done, regardless!
The main game mechanic is very intuitive and lent itself to some very nice puzzles and challenges. I especially liked the falling spike blocks! Good job!
I love the music in the game! Nicely done!
The music is very relaxing! Great game!
Building simulator) nice game, was fun to play. Should extend theme with more puzzles.
Thanks for playing the game! I'm glad you had fun, and I will definitely try to add more levels at some point :D
Fun game, completed all of the levels. It will be cool if you add a checkpoint zone. The player will rewind to the latest checkpoint it pasted through.
This was a fun game and I was hoping somebody would do something like this! The music was calming. I really liked the areas where you couldn't rewind time, I think that was a neat mechanic. I found it hard to be able to judge how high the box can jump for when to rewind, so it took me several attempts to do some levels. Overall, I had a lot of fun playing and the rewind mechanic was well done :)
Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you enjoyed the game :D
Great game , You can have fun playing but consider adding some few more things like removing only one block(so you don't need to restart all over again) or making your power to rewind limited, this adds difficult and depth. But nice job, I played only 4 levels but I liked it!
Thank you for playing my game! I agree with your feedback and I'm thinking about continuing development of the game. If I do, the first thing I will add is the undo last box button, as I agree it is really annoying if you have to restart an entire level :)
The idea is very cool, it is well applied too, I just felt a little out of control when jumping, but overall, it was a great project!
Nice concept ! really enjoyable to play
Very fun game, it's cool how u need to use the rewind mechanic to create your own platforms. nice relaxing music.
Really like the music, reminds me to PolyBridge theme, And very original game.
Super cool idea for a game! I really liked the rewind mechanic how you basically make platforms for yourself. It was really cool.
One complaint I have is that it is REALLY easy to soft-lock your game and have to reset. I'm glad the reset function is in quick reach though and the levels are small enough that it is not very annoying to deal with.
Overall it's a fun and relaxing platformer game with a surprising amount of depth despite its simple mechanics!
Thank you for your feedback! I agree that it is too easy to soft lock, I wanted to fix that by adding the possibility to remove your last placed box but sadly I ran out of time. I'm glad you enjoyed the game though!
