Nice idea for a countdown game. The music was good enough but after I while I wanted a rest but found the mute button didn't work. I think the explanation of the dual characters could have been better. I was wondering why they were moving around on their own! Once I understood, I thought it was a genius idea for a puzzle game. I found the puzzles quite difficult pretty quickly. I think a couple of visual cues to help explain more succinctly what was happening in the game would've gone a long way for removing the fatigue in trying to solve the puzzles. Narratively, it would've been nice to see a little bit of world-building and some kind of thread to tie the product together visually. It perhaps could've been interesting to explore a time-travel theme! Who knows. Either way, you should all be proud of yourselves!

What a great puzzle with a variety of mechanics! That's pretty neat!

Great puzzles and very polished!

At first I was like, why do I have to select my little dude? Then It became apparent. Neat take on the concept.

I loved this game. I enjoyed all the puzzles, and it was fun making all the things work together to solve the puzzle.

This is genuinely such a cool game. I love the mechanics and the puzzles are so good. Not to mention the music and sfx are awesome! I hope this one gets to be one of the winners. Great job!

It is very satisfying to move between different number of moves - definitely a fun puzzle. Each level very well thought out in terms of introducing new mechanics (ex. introducing another guy, or what flashing means, or those portal looking things). I think would be great to have also textually queue how to do specific things - it took me way longer than needed to realize i need to click the guy to start moving. Some of the area on the timer are bit hard to see what is going off next (especially when its layered), so perhaps that can be made bit more clear. Overall tho, very unique puzzle, i love how theme is incorporated, and very much enjoyed playing the game! Well done

Great design, this is clearly one of GMTK’s winner!

Cool game! Intuitive rules that open up a wide variety of possible setups. My favorite type of puzzle games!

I think I hit a bug though - I couldnt reset nor move any of the characters. There was nothing I could do on the screen :(. But amazing work regardless!

Lots of little moments of "a ha, I get it!", a sign of a well-designed puzzle. I'd definitely play more levels!

Very well done!

I like the sound effects for this one! Beautiful transition screen and good tutorial. Very clever mechanics and progression. I love the energy of the music. I really like the hand holding mechanic, very cute. I think a way to tell who killed who would be nice to help visualize what needs to be done (maybe as a hint mode), cause on level 21 I couldn’t tell what happened to my guys. Lovely fun and juicy puzzle game that was deeply satisfying to clear all 23 levels. Excellent work!

Now Thats a highly polished game! I really liked the game juice.

Such a great game! Genius mechanics and level design and what a banger of a soundtrack!

Submitted(+1)

What a jam of a soundtrack. The idea of going back in time to not only save your future self, but also your future children as well, that's pretty interesting. Well done!

Great simple puzzler that had me scratching my head more than a couple times, very satisfying
