Thank you!
And as much as I would love to claim that the gun placement was planned, I am afraid I just ran out of time, and this was the optimal height for hitting the enemies!

Thank you!
The ridiculous art style I initially had in mind called for a ridiculously sized gun, but I couldn't quite implement it during the jam.
And I planned on adding a choice of buffs + debuffs on every rewind to give it a roguelike charm, but I ran out of time, so I just randomised them. I will be sure to tweak them post-jam!
And honestly, thank you so much for letting me know that character cutout shader wasn't working in this build. I will add a note in the description and rectify this post-jam!

GAME DESCRIPTION
Time is Ammo. Life. Everything.
You are trapped in a strange dimension, caught in a relentless temporal loop. Your only way out is to fight through shifting rooms and survive the gauntlet before the clock runs out.
But there’s a catch: everything costs time.
Every shot you fire, every hit you take robs you of precious seconds. Killing entities gives you some time back, turning every encounter into a frantic calculation between aggression, survival, and speed.
Each room offers a choice. Clear every enemy to unlock the main exit, or find the hatch to take a risky shortcut.
Survive a room and your remaining time carries forward, along with buffs that strengthen you for the rest of your run.
Run out of time, and you rewind, thrown back to the beginning, carrying a new combination of buffs and debuffs into your next attempt.
Shoot carefully. Move quickly. Break the loop.
