What a cool story. A bit of a bummer that all the hard work is for naught at the end. I think a happy ending might have been more satisfying, but still. I enjoyed the story.

This is a pretty hectic worker-playcement game. But also satisfying, seeing all the jobs getting done and getting closer to the goal every loop.

It was a bit tedious having to redo everything (or almost everything) at the start of every loop, but it makes total sense with the story and the overall theme.

Absolutely fantastic! I love how the game mechanics compliment the theme of time travel, I could visualise these characters quickly inputting sequences they had worked out loops ago! I was quite sad when it ended!

It was a bit tedious, but on the whole it was a great experience. I did encounter a bug though. I have my mouse set up for my left arm (alternate each week to ease the strain on my arms). However, the game was taking input from it as if it was setup for right handed use. I would also like the ability to drag with the RMB instead of the LMB. So, selecting with LMB and dragging with RMB.

Understood, I've written it down and will add that when the rating period finishes, thanks for playing!

The visuals add a nice touch, the idea is also very fun and unique, overall very good experience and fits the "out of control" theme very well.

Love the music and visuals in the game! It gives me a sense of urgent and creates strong sci-fi feeling.

Don't be discouraged by others games -especially ones that use large asset packs in a game jam-, this is an awesome and creative game and its very fun to manage the different people that can research different things. Visual polish will come with time, but keep at game development, you're great at it and your ideas are fresh!
