How does your game fit the theme?
Nearly every object in the game has a countdown: platforms vanish when their timer hits zero, bombs explode, drones drop missiles, bosses change modes, and a level timer keeps you moving..

GG's Bit floaty movement imho, but pretty charming nonetheless.. and hey! You got a boss fight in there, pretty neat! Lovely tunes as well :)
Love the gameplay, short but great potential
It had a bit of this and a a bit of that to make it just right! loved the final boss!

Love the vibe of this game
Really fun! Loved the artstyle
So fun, such a good artstyle. If you ever plan to do more with this definitely lean into the run n' gun aspect more (even if its not intended).
Cute little platformer, the pixel art is lovely and it's nice and tight to play. Found myself just legging it past most of the timers though, might be worth making them harder to ignore. Good stuff!
Check out my game if you get a chance, a chess roguelike called Final Gambit: /jam/gmtk-jam-2026/rate/4813276
Too easy but still decent. The countdowns could have also had more impact.
Fun!
bit abrupt on the restart, but fun little game!
Simple and fun!
Cute pixel art!
Great submission! I love it! Simple and easy!
Great game, nice and simple, and the artwork stands out.
Amazing! Really fun to play and grind! :D
Well done, this is a lot for a person alone! I couldn't know, did you do the musics as well?
Cute little platformer with lots of charm and some fun mechanics to prop it up. I think I was able to play the game mostly without engaging in the countdowns on the blocks by shooting or running fast, but I'm pickin' up what you're puttin' down in general. Nice job!
Short but effective, was a little confused by the numbers at first but then i got it :P Good job!
Short by very well polished game! Loved the visuals and it's really creative to have countdowns on nearly everything!
