Thanks for taking the time to check it out! Sorry I couldn't stay long enough during the stream!

Developer

Oh also I didn't test for different resolutions and aspect ratios, the timeline isn't supposed to cover the game.

Very original concept and also very cool art. I always loved these kind of puzzle games. Well done!

I LOVED THE GAME! So cool!

Submitted(+1)

I love this concept. I did take some time untily the later levels to really understad what’s happening with the locking mechanic, but then it got really interesting. I loved the challenge having to think about how you have to solve an easy level to set you up for the next one. I would have like thou, if you could chose the order in which you play adjacent levels, that would give you more flexibility and possibilites.

Whoa great concept. I felt it was too easy at the start and later when I couldn't move I understood the mechanics. Nice job!

Very original mechanics. It has the potential to become a great, solid product. Congratulations!

By the way, it reminded me a little of those guys who finished the 3 super nintendo megamans using the same inputs at the same time. Really cool!

Great mechanics and very polished. Well done!

Really smart game mechanic! In level 4 the Timeline UI was on top of the player character and the enemies so could not see what was happening. I'm definitely going to playing this again later.

Oh wow, this game is incredible. From the aesthetic to the level design, everything is top notch! I'm surprise that this does not have more rating. Overall, great work on the game. Good job!

Submitted

Pretty cool concept and level design! Unfortunately if you're playing at a resolution lower than 1080p the UI obscures the level, but I'd like to check it out again when that's fixed.

Developer

Aw I was afraid of that, but I didn't have time to test and fix that. Thanks for the heads up!

Hands down one of the best games I've played so far. Presentation is top notch, and the puzzles are also challenging and really make your brain work!
