Why do I always forget to comment on these

I really really like the visuals and the theme / setting is really unique! Sad that there's barely any gameplay though...

Just saying the gameplay with the slowing time felt a little awkward. Maybe it's just the cooldown

Oh well, still love the combat and visuals. Good luck with the jam!

thanks! I realized at like 2 am on the last day that I had been working in a debug level the whole time so I only had a little bit to make an actual level lol I went on vacation during the jam so it really cut the amount of time that I had down

Wow this games artstyle is great!
I really liked the music with the clock ticking as the beat, it was awesome (Although you forgot to make it loop so it just cuts to silence after a while) 
I loved the slowing down time mechanic, but I wish there was a better indication of when time is slowed, when time is about to return to normal and when I can slow down time again. 

Amazing job on the art and animations, can't wait to see your next game!

I can’t believe I forgot to loop it! lol I specifically designed it to be loops lmao damn 


I wanted to do a shader switch for while the ability was active but I prioritized other things. I almost slowed down the music while the ability was active but I didn’t want to mess with the listening experience as much as I

if I work on it more I think I’ll apply a high pass filter on the sound and do a shader switch. 

Thank you so much!!! It means a lot
