I love this puzzle platformer

interesting game. Reminds me of leemings a little, where you have to make sure the path of the charater is clear and that they will not kill themselves... 

There are some bugs with the 'flat' obstacle. specifically on the way the character may fall/not fall from it, like what's shown on the gif you're using on this page. Some times the character got killed when it should not and they didn't when they should.

Incredible concept, I never would have thought of it. I’d love to see it fleshed out further. However, I feel the level design doesn't push the mechanics to their full potential; at times, I found myself clearing a level purely by chance without feeling like I truly earned it, missing that satisfying "AHA!" moment.

The game idea is really original. I think it's a bit of a shame that I'm never quite sure if what I'm doing is actually working, so I ended up just trying things out a lot. A nice game!

How intellectually stimulating! It was a bit surprising to realize the door could crush the walker, but such is life. The creatures that inhabit the levels are a charming addition!

I experienced quite severe lag in the last two levels, but that could just be a problem on my end. (Maybe it's the three trails?)

All-in-all, great work!

Very cute idea for a game! There's a little bit of trial and error, but the timing is mostly intuitive and the levels are small so it's never a big issue. I really like the visual effect for the links between the timeline and the objects. Plus the Nokia phone on the game page is a nice touch.

Nice small game! Loved the idea and execution!

I really enjoyed this puzzle game, it was short, but very fun. It is very polished, which isn't a standard for jam games.

Very nice and interesting game. I had a little bit of trouble getting used to the controls at first, but after that it was like a walk in the park :D congrats

Oh, and I really liked that you themed the itch page with an actual Nokia photo and intro. Really nice touch

Thanks. The themed page and the intro is the reason why the game might be a bit buggy or lack of a better level design. I spend too much time on that (but was fun to do)

Nice concept - excellent fit for the theme
