Fun idea. Could be made better if there were more attacks you could do on subsequent loops
Love the concept
Awesome concept! I'd love to see a more fleshed out game like this in the future, maybe with some audio! I also think it'd be really cool if this could somehow translate to local multiplayer!
Awesome idea, and the game design is sharp and on-point. You really nailed a formula for a game that can be played for hours. All that is left for this to be perfect is polish. Whether it is sound effects, allowing a full-screen option so you don't click off screen and die by accident, giving the text a font that compliments the visuals more, etc.
Good luck. Might replay soon.
Really really creative idea - I love the diversion of the classic "Use your past selves" mechanic. I could totally see this as a 10$ game on steam (which I would play the hell out of) if it was more polished. My suggestion: make it more fast paced, add more movement and combat mechanics and you've got yourself a 9.5/10 game. Good luck!
Neat game, the looping of the past selves quickly evolves into chaotic fun. Good submission!
Cool game! The player sprites could use some work but fun!
This is a super fun idea, avoiding yourself and the way it stacks is an awesome concept and I had a lot of fun with the game!
The concept is really interesting, and I really like seeing my past selves zooming around on the screen! I think the presentation just needs some work. Also, the physics are fairly floaty, which makes platforming a bit difficult (although I'm terrible at platforming so it could be just me). Great job!
The gameplay is very unique, although I do think that the level design makes platforming more the focus than actually interacting with your previous selves. Otherwise the idea has a lot of potential.
"Oh, so I'm approaching me!?" lol
I really like the idea of this game, I think the execution was a little wonky, I agree with comment below that I could see the potential for a lot of fun in later stages but it feels too difficult to reach that point, I also think maybe a simpler level design with fewer dangers could help amplify the danger of your previous selves. Well done though, keep at it!
IS THAT A JOJO REFERENCE?!?!?!?!
really cool idea, love the game
Cool idea and art!
It's not my kind of game unfortunately :( I'm not that skilled with keyboard controls as it is lmao, couldn't even get past round 2
I like the idea but I would have preferred if there were multiple lives or something because I think the potential for enjoyment in later rounds is very high but they are very difficult to reach
Out of all the time loop games I have played so far, this is my favourite! The idea that you need to kill your past selves to win adds a much needed twist to the time loop platformer. To improve it further, I would consider adding death animations to make the attacks feel more impactful. Great work!
Love the idea, and the name lol
Check out my game if you dont mind!
The hitbox is too weird for me to enjoy this.
Cool concept!
Great idea, fits the theme perfectly. Well done!
