How does your game fit the theme?
It is a puzzle based around a time loop

I really liked the mechanics and the concept. Good work.
Very intriguing & original concept, I want more unique puzzles like this and see how far you can push this, good work!
IMO the arrow doesnt have to disappear after characters step on it, but thats just me.
Interesting concept! I’d love to see the puzzle mechanics explored a bit further, as by the time I finished the last level, I was craving more challenging puzzles but it was already over! 🥲
Lovely, thanks for playing!
I also wished I had spent some more time working on more advanced levels, but I feared I would make it too hard instead :D
Cute little game, puzzles are not too challenging and the guitar notes in the game loop are awesome. Great entry
Thank you! I tried to match the music to the Vice-City-like colour theme of the game :)
Cheers, thanks for playing!
"Loved" the concept xD. At first couldn't quite understand what obstacles does mean, but then enjoyed solving the puzzles!
True, "obstacles" were supposed to be more ambitious, e.g. "a road block" that a character has to avoid, "a beggar" he wants to avoid, "rainy weather" he wants to avoid, and thus change the direction he's walking.
But as game jams being game jams - I had to cut corners and now the "obstacle" lost its meaning 😅
Thanks for playing though, appreciate it!
Cute concept! I love playing matchmaker
Thanks, appreciate it! Glad you liked it :)
I like this puzzle game. I would definitely play some more levels if they appeared. Nice work!
Thank you, appreciate it! Looking forward to working some more on this game idea :)
Very creative puzzle game.
Thank you, appreciate it!
Nice game, very cute, the controls are quite intuitive and the rules are easy to catch on.
I just didn't understand the purpose of rewinding but apart from that very nice game.
Thanks, appreciate it!
The rewinding comes into play at later levels, although you can still skip some of the levels without using the rewinding. I wish I could add a couple more levels that rely more on that mechanics!
Very cute narrative here, it's a nice way to contextualize a puzzle game like this. The game definitely would have benefitted from grid based movement and visible grids on the map, so that the player knows exactly how far the couple will travel, that way it'd be easier to place arrows in a calculated matter rather than having to estimate. And that way you can freely make much tougher puzzles without having to worry about the solve being tedious. But considering the time frame this is all in all a very impressive entry, great job!
Thanks a ton for a constructive feedback! Appreciate it a lot and points taken. I also wished I had added more prominent grid, but oh well, the corners had to be cut somewhere =]
Cheers!
what an adorable gameplay loop and smart use of the theme! good job :3
Thank you, appreciate it :)
I liked it! The puzzles were pretty fun, and I enjoyed them. My only complaint was that I felt like I spent a lot of time fiddling with the distances of the arrow placement. I liked the music too!
Thank you!
Indeed that's something I should've worked on a little bit more. I added the path-indicators last minute by the way. Without these, it was much worse :D
