So unique, how could anyone not rate it 5? I think you should be a top contender for the "creativity" category. Just keep in mind that with so many jam entries most people won't have seen your game, so the sheer randomness of what submissions get seen by what people means you might not get placed as high as you think you deserve. But even if you get something like 100th place that still means you're in the top 1%.

You should try to get more ratings if you can. If your entry does not get enough ratings, then the system automatically penalizes your final score by how far below the median number of ratings you got, so you don't get the placement you deserve. The number of ratings to get in order to not have your score penalized is currently estimated to be roughly 12-14ish (though we won't know for sure until the jam ends), so you would need about 6 to 8 more people to give you a rating to meet that cutoff and avoid the score penalty.

I'm currently trying to rate a bunch of the other games that don't have many ratings and hoping they'll return the favor so we can avoid the penalty. Here's to hoping you win creativity.

I like this take on the theme! It’s not just a timer, but the amount of “time” left directly affects the gameplay too, well done there! I also appreciated the tutorial, it was well presented, even though it was a lot for me to get through and digest lol, but I got the hang of it. The UI is nice and the visuals are clean. Well done overall!
