Loved this entry! One of my favorites so far, short and sweet just like a jam game should be.
I really like PICO-8 games, the graphics area adorable and it really captured the MINIT vibes. :)

Super cool concept and very fun to play! I love pico8 games and it was super cool to go for that due to the constraints. I liked the small puzzle feel as I found myself trying to remember what everyone said. Nice work!

Fun little game! It was hard to see the characters though, but in the end I figured it out. I like the music.

I think you should’ve made the sprites more legible, though.

Thank you for playing! I will be more careful with this next time I redo a game with this kind of art style

Great style! Was tough finding certain items and characters, but with some searching I got it done!

Super cute  game! I love this kind of art style! I found it a little hard to find some of the characters cause they blended into the background a bit, but it did add  to the need to rush to find them before the end of the loop.

Thank you for playing! Next time I do this kind of art style, I will be more careful about this

Awesome 2-bit art style, love those little Pico8 games.

Very neat idea with the time loop and the escape of it, a lot can be done in one map by changing things around while progressing the time loop. Colors are well chosen and good used for highlighting things

Developer

Thank you a lot !
