The artwork, sound design, and level design make this game feel extremely immersive! Yall should be super proud.
The rewind mechanic itself has loads of potential, but it doesn't feel satisfying to me yet. It's not clear to me when or where I can rewind the bullet. For instance, I wish I could reliably rewind the bullet midair.
I'd love to see this game with a more developed game loop with objectives and a lose/win state. I think it could be extremely fun and addicting if you nail the gamefeel just right
The art is great, and the main mechanic is fun and well implemented. Getting the hang of recalling your bullet was super satisfying. Could totally see this being expanded on. Great work!
looks incredible! but I can't play it as I am not on windows :/
The idea is very cool. At first, i just shoot the ennemies normally but then i understood that you could also kill them with the bullet coming back (especially thanks to the cactus with the shield). It's really fun to try to place yourself so the bullet can touch multiple ennemies when it comes back (and that's a good idea to show the bullet's trajectory). Also the game is really pretty, the ennemies are cute, it makes me want so see more of them
Game looks super nice, all the assets, the shading and materials.
Game loop is simple but effective. But the novelty dies preatty fast. But it’s just a game jam submission, so there isn’t time to fully develop everything.
This is the start of a super neat idea. At first it felt pretty much like a normal shooter with how quickly you can recall your bullet, until I learned when you're recalling it that it will damage enemies. I honestly think dropped the ability to directly shoot enemies and have it so only recalling it would make a super neat game!
This game was really fun and enjoyable. Artwork was super good too, you should be very proud of what you've been able to accomplish. Shame its not got many rates atm.
It looks stunning! But it gets a bit stale after a little bit because there's no reward for killing the enemies. And you can't upgrade your gun or hp or anything like that. I like the ambient audio. I kept just getting shoved right up to a wall and then I couldn't move so they just killed me in 3 seconds when I was at full hp, but the game looks really good!
