Simple well done puzzle, enjoyed playing it! The visuals are amazing, loved the VHS effect! Music is nice as wel. Overall a great game. Good job!
I don't quite get it... something I must be doing wrong
This was a really neat, creative idea! I liked the visual aesthetic a lot, and the experience of trying to chase down a tape you missed felt very grounded in the real-life panic of watching something slip out of your grasp in slow motion, haha.
A really satisfying puzzle experience! I like the countdown mechanic, that's very meta for some workdays huh 😅 Loved the screen effect too, I imagine the player's boss watching the CCTV and wondering what they are doing.
A great idea for a puzzle game and themed so well. My only criticism would be that maybe it would be nice to have an arrow to show the direction the tapes will come from so you can plan ahead of seeing the pattern but overall a very minor issue as it didn't take much trial and error to solve all the puzzles. Well done!
A well-done puzzler
Cool idea, i like the aesthetics as well. I think having some sound effects for the cassettes and movement would add feedback, and i agree the puzzles ended up being a bit simple. what could be cool is if you had a move counter to incentivize beating the puzzles in the least amount of steps.
Nice game! I enjoyed it. One suggestion I have is to add an indicator for the direction of the tapes.
it's a great jam game, the effect of the old tape makes it easier to get into the idea of going back / rewinding a tape!
Nice game !
An interesting concept. Although I did find that overall the puzzle design left a bit to be desired. They were quite easy. Unique idea though :)
Great little game! Looked and sounded great! Would love to see more!
LOL, the last level!
Style reminds be of playing on my good old Atari 2600 with the switch box between antenna and console not quite all the way to the console!
Short and sweet, with fun puzzles. Not to hard, but not trivial either. The extra levels were also fun!
Loved the rewinding VHS effect and really appreciated watching “my” amazing shelf-stocking skills in the replay after finishing. The music added a lot and the pixel retro definitely-not-Blockbuster aesthetic was a very nice touch.
The only thing I think would add to the game right now is a stronger indicator of which way the tape will fly out. I figured it out eventually (and maybe I’m just slow, lol) but I kept expecting the tape to fly out to the left of the top right shelf on level 3.
Great visuals and sound. The puzzles were fun, but not too challenging. Great job!
Great game! If you have more time to develop this game, it be great if there was a indicator of where the tapes are going, or some versions of the tapes that functioned differently, to add some variety.
I really like the CRT effect. And an interesting idea with the music that plays the notes in reverse.
This is awesome, really fun puzzle game
Interessting concept and nice puzzler - although I don't know if the game would work differntly in normal time...
Really fun game! Enjoyed it a lot, especially the more advanced levels. Only wish that the shelves would show what direction the tapes would fire from tho. Other than that this was a very solid submission, good job!
Short and cool little game! At first, I had a hard time figuring out in which direction the tapes were going to fly, but after some trial and error, I think I got a feeling for it :D
