Brilliant game, SPLENDID. But man are the retries annoying me. However, the punishment on some levels are a bit high but I guess that'll be fine.

I clicked on this game because of its title ✨
I liked the idea. At first, I didn't understand why there was a timer, but then I realized it makes you look for smarter solutions.
But the game doesn't leave any room for mistakes. The timer keeps pushing me, so I end up making really silly errors. After about 10 minutes of retries, I got pretty frustrated.
I'd really like to see this game without having to fully restart after every death
P. S. The death animation is amazing
I really like how it looks and the title is also quite nice. Also I think the music gets faster, when you get close to running out of time, I really like that aswell
Count John Loop has been real quiet since this dropped.
Pretty neat take on the theme! I did find that it was very easy to accidentally softlock myself, and an undo button would have been a welcome addition, but it was still really fun! I guess you could say I really enjoyed playing as Count John Countdown as he counts down countless countdowns countlessly before the countdown counts all the way down.
Great game, I think you could've incorporated the theme better though? Not seeing much about counting or down....
not really sure what i was supposed to do, unless the game was bugged
It looks great, love the animation, controls feel tight. But how short are those time limits? I can't even pass level 2 :,(
Granted, I'm not the most talented platformer player, but this feels ridiculous.
