Newbie?

Yes - I'm new to game jams!

How does your game fit the theme?
i took the theme "Just Get Started" and got an idea of a platformer where reSTARTING persisted your velocity and the state of the level.

This is a well-done puzzle game. Good difficulty balance too!

Submitted

Really simple but creative mechanic and amazing level design, good job!

Submitted

Wow, super fun and creative game!!!

Got a little bit confused at the beginning at when to use the r key but after I got the idea it was super cool.

Really great game!

Submitted

Just got started and I have to say I'm super impressed this is your first game. You've got basically everything down. Also I just had to trty a game with like the same ish ideas as mine :) but like you stole my game title  on level 1's name :( Fun game with a unique mechanic though, really well done., Iloved the hints thing too (I'm assuming that's what the red outline is)

Submitted

For a first game it is really impressive, the level design is pretty nice and so is the gameplay, even if the start is a bit too hard

Well anyway go give my game a try if you have the cance, would love to hear your thoughts

Submitted

nice work!! it is a very original idea for this game jam

i found the first levels quite difficult for me, maybe i would decrease difficulty first and adding it little by little, but it was fun

Submitted

Insane work!! Especially for your first jam!!! Intuitive platformer controls are really tough to nail down and this one just feels so good to play in my opinion. Even the precise segments were never frustrating and the movement speed is pretty much perfect. The mechanics and premise are genius, executed so well. They work so well with the super good level design (amazing blend of platforming and puzzles!!) and the music and art were both really great as well!! 5/5 all around dude

Submitted

WOW! that's for sure one of my fav game of the jam. controls felt o nice, level design was perfect and there were actually a lot of levels! graphics is cute and great! it's addictive, id definitely play other levels. good job, keep it up!

Submitted

Amazing idea! I'd love to see some new features using the respawn system!

Submitted

Really fun. Want more levels!

Submitted

amazing fun and creative concept with fun and tight level design and platform controls and fun puzzles

Submitted

Love the look and feel of this game, I enjoyed the whole thing and genuinely would love to play more levels and more mechanics.

Only note (which is not necessarily a bad one) is that the difficulty progression felt less consistent when I played (some in between levels felt way easier than ones before and after them). Take from that whatever you like 🤙.

Fun: great puzzle platforming, it was fun playing it, probably one of the best games so far 

presentation: great art style and sound design, reminds me of Pico-8 Celeste

creativity: great idea, reSTARTING, is one of the most creative ways to use the theme


Submitted

This game jam has so many good platformers, I've got nothing more to say

Submitted

very fun, though the bouncing felt inconsistent as sometimes i needed to wait a little moment to reset and reach the platforms, but sometimes i had to hit reset immediately after hitting a spring. maybe its just a skill issue tho

Submitted

Loved the game the level designs were cool (thread the needle was my favorite) and the core rewind mechanic was something i havnt seen before. great job especially on ur first jam

Submitted

Submitted

Submitted
