Cool use of the looping mechanic, games that use an increasing time limit as a restriction for what areas you can access have their own charm, it's almost like a small bite-sized metroidvania. The writing was fairly amusing and the exploration is fun. The actual "puzzles" are fairly simple and the game is not particularly long but it's a fairly good amount of content for a solo dev! Only complaint is that I wish I could gift Bob a knuckle sandwich.

Very well made time-loop game! I finished it in 20 days. The writing was really enjoyable as well
It's like a mini Outer Wilds! Really enjoyed it. I also found a place on the far left where you can walk into the water haha
nice cute timeloop puzzle game, completed in 14 days :3
i feel like maybe adding some more ambience n music would make it more immersive :3
Nice Open world puzzle game. I finished it in 19 days. It was very fun :D
Love puzzle games, but I was a bit slow, finished in 62 days. Very well executed though!
Cool use of the theme, I had fun with this one. My only complaint is that the text was pretty hard to read since it's basically white on white but otherwise I smile :)
Really cool time loop game with very fun dialogue. I also think that the mushroom puzzle was pretty creative. Getting more time on the meter also felt really satisfying since I was able to explore more.
22 days ! The timer felt a bit short and I always ended up having to rush things, maybe you could increase it a bit ? Otherwise the metroidvania aspect is really cool and well executed ! Good humour as well :)
Cute, clever, made me snort out of my nose a few times; wouldn't change a thing.
The pixel art is very well done and I like the idea!
So good. Really liked the story.
Cool edge of tomorrow like game!! Nice art - great job!
Nice little puzzle game. Took me 19 days to complete it all.
