Though it's not my type of game (too hard, more checkpoints please) i like the art and mechanic ideas though.

Love the art and overall feel of the game, good amount of challenge for the platforming section as well! Great submission ; )

One of my favorite games of this jam so far. A well rounded package combined with a solid dose of challenge :) I really liked the end and the explanation why the littl rat is traped in the tower ^^

I think this is a really good game. Loved the rewind animation!
Maybe it's just a bit too difficult without any checkpoint.

Really love the music and art and overall vibe! It does get a bit frustrating after a while, since you have to go through the same rooms over and over again (which I know is the point but it's still the worst part of the game-play). Overall, though, I really liked it :3

Great work! The background art looks great! I like the atmosphere of the game as well!

It was a little frustrating to play, because it feels like there is a lot of trial and error in the gameplay, and you are sent back to the beginning every time you die. The first time this happened, I wasn't really sure what was going on -- it almost seemed like hitting the blue boxes resets time.
(Edit: My apologies for the multiple posts)

The game is really pretty, this is a pleasure to go through it. This was sometimes a little hard but that's a part of the game because after a few try, it becomes obvious

Nice music and nice arts!

It has some cool gameplay ideas. I love the sideways spinning wheels. The loop mechanic is kind of frustrating given that the game is hard. For this to work better, it should easy once you know what to do (like very easy, cause restarting cause you jumped a bit too far is annoying). This said, it's easier said than done, my own game is probably much harder than nescessary as well ahah.

Congrats!

Took me a while to finish, but made it in the end.  Extraordinary visuals and audio combination. The clock animation is cool the first 7-10 times i saw it, after that it became frustrating to see :D Gameplay wise, slower falling speed would definetly make it easier, i think this was a bit too hard. But enjoyed it nonetheless!

Nice game, cute visuals. A little bit too hard for us : D
