How does your game fit the theme?
Although the movement of the hands of the clocks is constantly "looping" around, the real idea I am sending across is how people spend their times working (looping) around the clock looking for income until they finally "See the light". The theme is expressed in this game both literally and figuratively.

nice simple visuals, the music isnt anything special but it works well for the background and not be too distracting

the game, itself, well im not sure if it's focused more on the message or the gameplay.
if it's the metaphorical message: then it works as intended and it gets the message of the mind numbing repetition across, with repeatedly going from point to point without any variety and collecting coins 100 times over across all the levels.
and if its the gameplay: well then everything i just listed works very much against it.

overall, i have no idea, its certainly an experience.

Thank you for the very insightful feedback. This is my first jam and i honestly didn't many ideas to run so, "metaphorical" was the way to go. Thank you once more🙏

Got a little repetitive after a while (although that might be the point!) I liked the creative take on the theme. It was a little hard to tell how far up I was jumping to avoid the hands, and it would be nice to be able to be hit a few times before resetting.

If you have some time, would you mind checking out my game?
