Thank you for recommending your game to the stream and hanging around! It has to be one of my top five in this jam, so creative and fun!

Very fun game! The levels were all well thought out, and the timeline was a cool idea; it especially helped that it showed when you hit each button or died. Good job!
Super cool concept for a platform/puzzle game! I loved the timeline mechanic and the different mutations, got stuck after the third flying mutation level cause I couldn't figure out how to flip the turtle to the left, but I had a great time anyways! Fantastic job!
This is such a cool game! I was confused for a moment in the beginning. But as soon as i figured out what i'm actually doing it was such an amazing experience!!
Only thing I found in my second round around is that the 2x speed triggers the events at different points its not extremely noticeable. But if you switch between them a lot its a bit annoying but if you stick to one speed its not really a big issue. :)
Yeah the 2X speed can break the simulation for sure. Figured it worth leaving in with a warning. Thanks for playing and the feedback!
Def one of the best I played in this Jam. The concept is creative. Art and music are both cohesive. I also appreciate that you added zoom and hint features to make it more accessible.
There are also so many contents! How many levels are there? I couldn't figure out how to pass this one. Can i get some hints :)
I’m glad you liked it! There’s just one more level after that one. Based on the timeline in the screenshot you’re pretty close to the solution already!
You just need to let go of the wall while you’re climbing to fall onto the button, then figure out a way to get back. If you use the speed boost while you’re climbing you won’t go around corners like normal, it’ll fling you in the direction you were going before you reached the corner.
I wonder what the game's abbreviation could be... it seems similar to mine...
It was a nice little game, and I appreciate the reference in the title. I liked the logic puzzles and the unique gameplay.
Haha there's actually another team that also did the same TMNT abbreviation name. Crazy! Appreciate the feedback.
After the mutation and the turtle, we were sure that this should be the abbreviation.
This game was so much fun! The second to last level took me forever (I ended up recruiting help), but we finally figured it out. The very last level, we only used one of each mutation. Puzzle games are so hard to design. We keep avoiding them. You did a fantastic job!
Was really fun to play through the levels and figure out how to solve the puzzles ! I really like that the player has to find a solution, and we can kind of craft them how we want
Glad to hear that. Wish we had more time to make levels, really enjoyed levels that had multiple solutions!
Love this game. The puzzles are great and original. I struggled at the beginning to understand what I was supposed to do and the the UI lacks a bit of snapping to make things more natural. But I like the feedback on the timeline to be able to adjust and better solve the puzzle. Great work.
Wow! Theres so much time and content in here, I think I went to almost an hour!! thanks so much for submitting your game and hanging with us in the livestream!!
absolutely love this game concept and im not saying this because of my bias towards puzzle games
its really original, only lacks a bit of visual polish but yea, not much else to say
goated game you got there mate
Really clever game mechanics. It may seem hard but through trial and error you get to master the mutations you are handled with and how to use them. Very fun game!
I LOVED the puzzle mechanics, really original and well executed, and the puzzles were designed really well. I also enjoyed the trial and error of it all, and that there was a button to quickly execute as you test things out. Being able to slide on multiple mutations together was a great touch as well - I didn't realize it until I was like wait a minute... can I do THIS!? And boom!
Really well done all!
I love this game so much !
This is a really good puzzle game!
The game is a masterpiece! Reminded me of Lemmings. Everything is super clear and very interesting. It was a pleasure to play!
Thank you for the kind comment! Lemmings actually was an inspiration in the ideation of the game! Classic.
A very unique take on the theme, and one with some real staying power - I'm impressed by the number of levels! The UI is really well-implemented, the key and death markers are some brilliant quality-of-life additions. The "copyright safe mode" gave me a good chuckle, too.
Thank you! Hahaha, you could never be too safe!
Thanks so much! I actually wished we could implement more levels but designing interesting puzzles is so tough. And you can thank our playtesters for those markers, they had to suffer a lot before we figured out how important the markers were. :)
Great game! I especially loved the art style and the way the turtle flies
Wow, this was a surprisingly delightful puzzle game. Great design and execution. I liked the trial and error mechanic. And I actually liked the short music loop... it helped me get into a flow state.
Great concept for a puzzle game and good balance between planning and trial and error. Had quit a bit of fun :)
