Wow! I love how the unicycle helps the player understand that the in-game timeline is tied to their horizontal movement — pedaling backwards and forwards naturally aligns with a clock turning back and forth. A coconut on a unicycle might be a dumb idea for a main character in a novel, but for a game it can be a smart decision...that's the beauty of games! Great work.

This is such a mind-bender, in a good way. This is such a unique take on the theme, and the puzzles are incredible!! brilliant work :]
this rules, felt very stephen's sausage roll in vibes. its a little oblique but honestly this might be a good thing? i think it adds to the atmosphere
The idea is good: rewind time through the elements, controlling everything through time. Excellent.
Sometimes there are collision issues caused by complications.
one of the most creative ideas i’ve seen for this jam ! and i really dig the design of the game, congrats :)
A great puzzle game, excellent usage of the countdown theme in great mechanic! Not only was it easy to understand, but it also visually looked cool how the lighting and background would change to help convey the changing of time forward and back.
i really loved playing your game, it was amazing!! The game looked kinda like an prototype of a big industry game, the puzzles were great and the main character was really really cute!!
LoL little character with clock unicycle. I like the animations when he spins the whole clock to just go up or down. Also neat mechanics and puzzles.
