Great game! Would you consider allowing us to include the game files in our PortMaster packages? PortMaster is a project to bring modern games to Linux handhelds https://portmaster.games
Sure, go ahead.
Fantastic! Thanks for the response

lovely dovely game 7/10
This game is awesome, cant say anything else.
Yes, i want to see more!
Cool mechanics!
Congrats for this entry it’s really cool! It works well, no bugs, gameplay responds well, really neat, and it looks good! I liked the idea of being helped by a replay of yourself, you executed it very well, and actually my team and me had a similar idea but we executed it a completely different way! I enjoyed playing it, and the ending was cool! Nicely adjusted levels and good use of the mechanic, nice difficulty growth, very well done :)
I let my friend die. FeelsBadMan. xD. Nice game. Nice feel.
You can always make new friends :P
Mood over 9000.
Thanks a lot for the video! Seems like two levels were swapped in the build, which caused some of your struggle. You did very good compared to my friends I tested this with though :)
Interesting premise! I'm glad you provided a gif of the solution to Evade, I was stuck on that one. The beginning reminded me of a game I had recently helped with (Divided Dungeon), that also had a time repeating mechanic. But you innovated on this by more directly allowing control of the time travel! This game has a cool atmosphere, but the main mechanic isn't well explained in the puzzles- I had to experiment in order to figure out how stuff worked. Also, it could use some music to set the tone. Overall, I like it a lot!
Yeah I got similar complaints on explaining the mechanic. Maybe I'll fix after the jam. Thanks for the feedback!
Great work MSiddeek. Really enjoyed the puzzles, especially "rise". That puzzle felt almost like I was abusing the mechanic, but in an intentional and really satisfying way. I would love to see more!
Haha! Thanks for playing.
