The core gameplay mechanic is very polished. The music can feel a bit tiring and repetitive, but it’s fine if you turn it down a little. The level design is excellent, and I love the character. Great job! :)
Epic! love the music!
Great Level Design, and very cute art. I love when you see all your little past selfs run with you in the later loops of a level :D Great Job!
Really nice art and music, along with the level design. Truly unique!
Very nice! I'd love the camera to automatically scroll with the character.
Really fun game, it’s nice how past lives can influence you, either helping you, or absolutely clowning you.
THIS IS SO FUN! I love puzzles like this. It's a clever take on the loop theme and well-executed. I love that you can reset all your loops if you want, and you can also end a loop early. Makes it a lot less frustrating and allows for smoother gameplay! It's so enjoyable all around, 5/5!
nice idea
Really impressive amount of work done in this! Just the levels were one thing but fitting a boss fight in too is super impressive. Fun game!
Don't make too many mistakes or your past clones will mess with you lol. Also nice art and music
It's fun, but I got stuck on a puzzle. Also its a little inconsistent, which makes it super rage inducing
nice art
nice game
Fun game
Sorry for my English, I might get some words wrong. And remember, it’s all MY opinion, so don’t take that as a fact!
Creativity (4/5) - It’s not the first clone game I played in the jam, but until now, this had the best execution. Specially jumping on your dead selves and playing more times to advance, it’s really cool.
Enjoyment (3/5) - It felt good to play this, the controls were very responsive, the game is pretty fast and the puzzles are fun. I just got frustrated at some levels because my clone paths broke and screwed the whole level up… And I did not get past the third level, I wasn’t able to realize what I had to do after opening the locked door.
Narrative (1/5) - It doesn’t look like it has a narrative…
Artwork (4/5) - It’s really pretty! The sprites were cute, and the scenarios are simple but consistent and good to look at! Also, the ring animation and the transitions with the clock were on spot.
Audio (3/5) - The music is cool, not boring to hear after a long time. I just think some SFX are a little sharp and has a too high volume.
Overall (3/5) - It’s really simple, but really fun and got good puzzles. I just think they might be a little hard, which would not be a problem if the clone bugs didn’t turn make it a bit frustrating. It’s a great game after all, good job!
Very original way of using the loop theme, loved it!
Love the visuals!
cool and chaotic game, but very hard, couldn't get past level 2
I tried to build my game on the same concept, really like how you executed it ! Also the game is gorgeous !
nice game
