Software used
Unreal Engine 5 (Please forgive me as this was my first time packaging with UE and debug information will be shown and I did not have time to fix it)

Use of the limitation
I miss understood the limitations and thus failed to incorporate the limitations properly. I Clearly cant read as I was thinking the use of UI buttons and not inputs. Ill pay more attention next time around.

First player 3D plateformer with a nice Portal vibe, looks promising!

I sadly never reached the third plateform of level 2... and I tried so many times :'( Would love to try the other levels too!!
I don't get how this game connects to the theme "chrono" of the jam but I could only play the first two levels, that comes probably later?

It's a work in progress, of course there is not enough time to develop this kind of game during a jam. Well done for the results and keep pushing :)

I would love to hear some sound design and music; and maybe a menu in order to change levels? I'm sorry I could not pass level 2...

Thanks for the feedback! Ya the acid room can be a but tricky on the timing. Sadly I only had time to work on the first tutorial level where you get the ability to manipulate time in the last test chamber. there is a hole on another level with 6 more tests around using physics and the time ability but it just didn't make it in

OK I was able to get it to open. I did have to install 7-zip in order to open it. This game really is something and it's surprising that there wasn't as many ratings. The restriction was misinterpreted so i'm going to just ignore that part and the exposed debug information. 3D game with voiceacting, interactable object, lasers, and moving planforms within less than 3 days was very impressive on top of being your first game. The movement felt smooth and there weren't too many bugs. I did find some very minor things: you can pick up objects through glass walls, held objects can go though walls (although this is hard to fix), and ,although it was smart to disable collision with the player and the held object, collision between the held object and other objects still work which can lead to some funny stuff if the player is on an object holding another object. These are very minor issues so I wouldn't worry about it. I wish the theme was implemented more. The time slow was only available at the last level which I completed before the narrator gave the ability. I never used unreal engine but overall it looked pretty impressive. I think the game would be better if you got the time slow ability earlier and made it more integral to the platforming. That and maybe make it easier to open by exporting it as a .exe or html. Congrats on your first game jam, don't be too disappointed with results. I know that feeling because this is only my third one. The most important thing is learning

Thank you for taking the time to Check it out. the unfortunate thing was that there were meant to be more Maps and another time ability (already made just not implemented) but due to some medical issues, I wasn't able to spend as much time working on it as I would have liked.  Thank you for the feedback!

Submitted

Oh, that's unfortunate. Thanks for working past it and getting as much done as you can. I hope your medical issues improve.

Developer

Thank you for the kind words, thankfully it's not my medical issue but when duty calls game games must wait lol If I get the itch all work on it some more and update it with the new levels. though might just hope to the text game jam and keep learning

No pressure about updating the game. Working on an existing project can be slow as you need to work around rushed code.
