I have a feeling I could spend a very long time getting good at this one. Awesome use of the constraints.

ULTRA COOL! ULTRA COOL! ULTRA COOL! Love the take on SUPERHOT, and the creepy face that overlays, and the slow down time mechanic. Nice job!

Very lovely little game! I included it in my compilation video series of the Low Rez Jam games, if you would like to take a look :)

Thanks for the feedback!

I have had no way to test out the mac build, so I haven't been too sure if I built the app right. I will do some looking into it and see if I can fix that.

The issues with crashing has been something I was fighting with, and just wasn't able to fix all the way in time for the deadline. It's a shame, but it is what it is.

Really good game, but a couple of bugs that I've spotted so far:

On OS X, the executable itself isn't set to be executable. It's rw-r--r--, so the .app bundle refuses to load it.

After a little while playing, it crashes, apparently it's sent a SIGSEV? I'm not sure exactly what happened, but reopening it works just fine (until it crashes again).

The best thing is that I already assumed based on the title, it has something to do with SUPERHOT.

Pretty good stuff, I find it harder than SUPERHOT though. :D
