How does your game fit the theme?
Every screen gives you a limited number of actions — each move, push, or shot counts down that budget. Once you're out, you're stuck until you undo or reset. The core loop is built entirely around managing that countdown: plan your moves, spend them wisely, and rewind time when a plan doesn't pan out.

Such a cute game! It really reminds me of a game I used to play on Game Boy Color.

There are some neat mechanics here! Unfortunately I didn’t get to see much of the time mechanic, since I couldn’t figure out the “Ashes and Regrets” room for the life of me (I’m wondering if there’s just some means of interaction I’m missing, but E doesn’t appear to do anything in that room…). I enjoyed what I played up to that point, though. There were some minor graphical glitches, but otherwise everything seemed to be working fine. Nice work :)

Sadly I ran into some bugs too but besides that it's one of the coolest games I've played! Looks and feels very polished and it's a super cool concept and I really like the multiple routes aspect of it.

I found the consequences room, and I don't think I am able to get out. The art and animations are great, though!
