I absolutely loved this. Might be my favorite of the jam so far. Aside from things that were obviously not perfect due to time (sounds, effects, etc.), the only problem I really had was the rewind. After spending enough time in a level it's kinda tedious. Maybe if you gave the option to fast forward through it, you could keep the effect but get rid of the annoyance.

Thanks alot for the feedback. We will definitly consider adding more control over the rewind mechanic. It's supposed to limit the character in regards to his actions (invisible doggy leash if you will ^^) and also serve as an easy option to rewind back to the start once you accomplish what you need to. There were more ideas around that mechanic that we thought to implement, but as you mentioned, time constraints stopped that :). We are currently considering what we'll change when going forward developing this game and this is exactly what we want to hear :D.

It took me a while to understand but it was a lot of fun once I did. Also great art!

Weird and interesting concept, challenging gameplay and 10/10 art.

Can you tell me more about how you think the level design could be improved or what you think it lacked?

I just got the strangest feeling that it was 1997 again.

Also, don't keep me in suspense. What are these creatures and can they be killed?

Developer

??? I don't understand

I get it babe ;) :D

Art is... something special, nice physics and i loved the time rewind physics :D buttons where a bit tricky to get used to, but it was cool.

5/7 

The art is really.. unique :D I couldn't figure out how to press the button though, and got stuck.

If you are talking about like just the red Yellow Blue and Pink Cubes unfortunately there is no SFX for it. Didn't have time :( All you have to do is overlap with the coorisponding character to level complete. IE Red to Red Yellow to Yellow etc. The Characters are color coded in a way so is their timer. The fact that I have so explain that says a lot about where we can improve though so thank you :)

Oh, no I meant the big red button. I assume it's suppose to open a gate but it doesn't for me somehow.

Developer

Ahhh, okay would you mind send me a picture of what button exactly?

This guy I hear the click and the animation but the gate doesn't open.

Developer

That opens a gate on the left hand side of the map to a collectable

Ohh I'm just stupid then, I thought it would open the gate on the right :)
