- Great submission for the jam! The first thing that really stands out is the art. It is simple in the best way possible. It is clean, with a lot of character, and looks great. The mechanics are very consistent and both work well and feel extremely good. The game is never working against me to succeed, if I'm doing the right inputs the game will respond well. The zero UI during gameplay works really well for the visual and level design that were chosen. The time slowness mechanic adds a lot to the game, especially with the sometimes quick rotating gun. Really pleased to see the amount of level design that was put into the game, even in the short jam deadline. The pause and end level menu seems to not scale properly with the game window size. If development keeps going after the jam, I'd recommend adding more obstacles variance, with moving objects as well.
- Very effective and charming art style, every color driving mechanics, Well executed! Great detail on the textures too. Great and effective use of minimal UI. I LOVED the mechanics and controls as implemented! It felt like a well orchestrated ballet and Warframe Bullet Jumping all rolled together. Very wearding lining up shots with the bullet time and trick shots combined with trick locomotion, great combo! Great puzzle level difficulty progression, felt on pace with Portal/Portal2's as comparison. Moving targets/objectives I feel would be a great later game mechanic to add in to dial up the frenetic nature. Great submission!

The game is clean and easy to learn, however, the game idea isn't that creative. But nevertheless it's a pretty fun game!
