How does your game fit the theme?
The game embodies the “loop” theme by replaying the player’s recorded movement as a ghost trail in future levels, creating a temporal loop that links past actions to present gameplay. This mechanic transforms each level into both a puzzle and a setup for the next, requiring players to think cyclically and strategically about how their movements will echo forward.

Took me a moment to figure out what the mechanic was, since I just tapped space once in the first level. Really cool concept, though!

I like the Tron-like ability. Very cool!

Unexpectedly fun puzzles, I thought I'd end up frustrated, but it was straight forward. Obviously quantity wise, maybe the game was a bit lacking, but that could have just bin a late start. Good puzzle game, would have been cool to have a couple more levels.

Great concept, but please add audio. SFX can help a lot by giving the player feedback on their actions.

Great job and great concept! I didn't complete because my brain was not prepared for the 4D chess that is required.

Great submission! It's a really interesting mechanic to record yourself to use in later levels and for that to continue forwards. It does mean you keep having to go back and replay them in sequence knowing about the future but that adds an interesting challenge. Great job submitting something for this jam!
