I’m a sucker for time-bending mechanics so I liked this one. There are issues with collisions though (I could at times walk through walls). The “BOO” feature was a great design choice too! Nice game! :)

I really enjoy the game. Cool mechanic but i cant kill the boss :( . Great job!!
Well I'm glad you enjoyed it even though you couldn't finish, sorry about that! If I had had more time I would have made it more obvious...
To kill him you have to rewind into his bullets to convert them into friendly bullets, and then after 2s they will shoot away from you, so after rewinding into them you aim them at the boss to hurt him. Definitely far from intuitive!
Cool little mechanic. It felt a lot better once I realized I could kill the enemies :D
Great entry! Very interesting mechanics with creatice way of using your rewind to avoid or to attack. I also love how you need to BOO on lanterns to make a checkpoint:D (also very good you made those because game wasn't easy;))
Very fun game and great aesthetics! It took me a while to figure out how to get a couple of the waxes (particularly the boss fight), but it was satisfying once I got to the end. The only issue I had was that I got stuck in a block at one point, so there might be some collision issues. Great job overall though!
I'll level with you this was WAY more fun than i expected, I'm not usually one for this style of game but as soon as I rewound *through* an enemy to kill them, I was having fun. The mechanics feel SO good and getting to yell BOO to kill something is a treat. Over all this is an absolute blast of a game, and I'm thrilled I played it.
Good ideas here, I liked the dual purpose of pressing space; to rewinding away from the enemies then to kill them. 👍
The rewind mechanic is a pretty fun Overall a good game.
Liked this a lot, it has a very cool time rewind mechanic and the boss fight was fun. I only wish there were more puzzles that would thake advantage of the rewind.
